The Hollywood throat epidemic going around has claimed it’s fifth victim – JANET JACKSON canceled her Sydney concert on doctor’s orders 10 minutes before its scheduled start. Apparently, an emergency medical evaluation necessitated rest for her vocal cords or have her lose her voice completely…
According to Janet’s reps, the singer had no choice but to cancel her 8 pm performance at the Sydney Opera House due to vocal cord issues, issuing a statement to disappointed concert-goers at 7:40 pm which read:
“It is with regret that Dainty Group announces that tonight’s Janet Jackson Number Ones: Up Close and Personal concert at the Sydney Opera House cannot proceed. Doctors have ordered Miss Jackson to undertake vocal rest for the next two days, so she can complete the third and final show of her Australian tour this Tuesday night at the Sydney Opera House.”
This incident comes on the heels of several other celebrity entertainers who are now out of commission due to throat conditions that’ve occurred within the last two months, ranging from simple hospital emergency room visits to actual surgery, star news reports.
First came John Mayer who had to have surgery to remove a granuloma from his vocal cords; followed by Adele who’s scheduled to go under the knife to remedy vocal cord hemorrhage that’s rumored to have progressed to throat cancer; then Marie Osmond was rushed to the emergency room in the middle of a Sin City performance for really bad bronchitis, and the most recent being country singer, Keith Urban who’s even now being prepped to have a polyp removed from his vocal cords.
Welcome to the club, Janet Jackson.
How many more of Hollywood’s warblers are going down from this throat epidemic that’s hit Tinseltown hard?
