A case of swollen vocal cords has prompted Alicia Keys to cancel a second date on her current tour. She missed Tuesday night’s show in Pittsburgh, and now the 11-time Grammy winner is also begging off her scheduled performance Thursday in Cleveland.
A statement issued by her record company on Wednesday said that she is expected to be sufficiently recovered to make the next tour stop on Saturday in Columbus.
It’s been a tough week on Keys’ U.S. tour, which opened Saturday in Hampton, Va.: opening act Jordin Sparks dropped out on Monday because of throat problems that caused her to curtail all singing engagements in April.
