An unspecified illness has forced Janet Jackson to postpone three more concerts. Jackson’s weekend shows in Greensboro, North Carolina and Atlanta, Georgia were called off, as is tomorrow’s show in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Ticket holders are being asked to hold onto their tickets for the rescheduled dates. Jackson suddenly became sick before her concert in Montreal last Monday, forcing a brief hospital visit. Thus far, six shows on Jackson’s “Rock Witchu” tour have been postponed by the mysterious ailment. After the initial postponements, the tour was supposed to continue this weekend in Greensboro, but a doctor there said Jackson had not fully recovered yet. On her doctor’s orders, Jackson has returned home to recuperate.

Perhaps she should have called the tour “Puke Witchu”.

Just a desperate attempt at catching some more fame. Give it up Janet, you haven’t been relevant since ‘93.

She’s lypsynced LIVE in concert her whole career……why in the WORLD are people paying to see someone pretend to sing at a LIVE concert ?? When asked some of them say they don’t even care that she lypsyncs live, they,
“Just want to see her in person”
Good lord we’ve become such moronic sheep…..

I doubt she will contunie this tour, “Hey, my shows aren’t selling out, my album bombed, Madonna is also on tour, I feel sick, cancel the tour!!!”

She’s probably pregnant.

I believe the ‘mystery ailment’ is commonly known as Houstonitis.
