PJ Harvey says Paris show 'her last'

PJ Harvey shocked fans during a show last night in Paris when she revealed that the performance would be her last, NME reports.

The star was performing in front of a small audience of competition winners at Studio 287 in northern France when she announced that the concert would be "the last show I will ever play."

The announcement came after it was rumoured that her headline partners for the evening, The Libertines, were playing at their last ever show.

Harvey had been touring in support of her seventh studio album, "Uh Huh Her."

She just commented on all the hoopla surrounding The Libertines. As if she can ever stop playing... it's in her blood, as is performing.

I agree. This post was met by an immediate eyeroll from me.

What the hell!? I hope this isn't true. Hopefully she was just ripping on the Libertines. Or hopefully it's a Bowie kinda announcement. I just saw her 2 months ago and she seemed as fresh and excited to be playing as ever. PJ don't do this to me!

i didn't write the article, ya know. i just posted what i read. it's probably a crock of doo-doo, but the point is, she apparently made this comment at her show. i'm rollin' my eyes at ol' hairy-pits too. i don't think she's anywhere near finished.

Just read the interview in Bust. PJ likes to dance to Joy Division! Me too! I loooove to dance to JD!

And she has a phone relation with Don van Vliet. How cool is THAT?

I was reading on one of her forums reports from people that were actually at this show. What she actually said was "This will be OUR last show." Or something like that, meaning with her current line-up. Sorta like when Bowie retired the Spiders. Let's hope this is true.
