Janet Jackson postpones 4th Show Due to Illness

Janet Jackson has canceled her fourth show in less than a week because of an undisclosed illness.
A statement from Jackson said she arrived in Greensboro, N.C., hoping to perform there Saturday, but a local doctor advised that she not perform after it became "evident" she was not fully recovered.

Representatives for the 42-year-old singer say she became "suddenly ill" and was hospitalized Monday night in Montreal shortly after she arrived for a show. She also canceled concerts in Boston and Philadelphia on Wednesday and Thursday.

Jackson’s publicist did not elaborate Saturday, only saying she was "recuperating."  Jackson is on her first North American tour in seven years.  Source
