Celine Dion was forced to postpone a series of Australian dates, as she recovers from throat ailment.
E! Online reports that Celine Dion has been forced to postpone several concerts in Australia due to a throat infection.
Shows in Brisbane and Melbourne were pushed back after Dion complained of a sore throat and irritated sinuses. Two additional performances in Sydney have also been postponed for a week until the singer can make a full recovery.
Dion, who was photographed around town wearing a surgical mask, - likely - as a cautionary measure to ward off any further germs, apologized to her fans for the delay.
"I've been looking forward to doing these shows for so long," Dion said in a statement. "I'm really sorry to disappoint my fans this weekend, but I can't wait to see them on the new dates."
Dion has been advised by doctors to rest her voice for an additional 48, her rep commented. The singer, who turns 40 on Sunday, may have to keep the festivities low-key as she recuperates. Dion’s yearlong “Taking Chances” tour is her first in nearly 10 years.
