In another setback on her "Rock Witchu" tour, Janet Jackson has lost her opening act: LL Cool J.
The rapper's publicity firm announced Monday that he has dropped out as the headliner for Jackson because of unnamed scheduling conflicts.
It's the latest problem on Jackson's tour, her first North American outing in seven years. The 42-year-old singer was forced to cancel a string of earlier concerts because of a bout of migraine-associated vertigo. She recently resumed while being treated for the illness, which is characterized by dizziness, imbalance and other symptoms.
Jackson's upcoming shows are Tuesday in Auburn Hills, Mich., and Saturday in New York. She is expected to announce more dates.
JD posted a new video on his Youtube page. The video was filmed last night backstage in Houston. In the video Janet thanks all the fans for the support and denied tabloid rumors that they had broken up.
WASHINGTON (AP) — Janet Jackson took the stage to exploding fireworks, clouds of smoke and the sounds of some early hits Wednesday in her first concert since she was sidelined for two weeks by a bout of vertigo.
Jackson opened the show at the Verizon Center with "Pleasure Principle," followed by "What Have You Done for Me Lately" from her 1986 album "Control." Soon after, she played her latest single, "Feedback."
"It feels so good to be back after being down just a little bit," Jackson told the crowd at one pause.
The high-energy show went smoothly, but Jackson did appear winded at times. At one point, she paused to admire her backup dancers, and the audience roared with approval.
Jackson's publicist said Wednesday she has been suffering from migraine-associated vertigo, which led to her canceling a string of shows. She is being treated for the illness, which is characterized by dizziness, imbalance and other symptoms.
"She's a world-class entertainer and needs to be at the top of her game to give her fans the show they expect," Jackson's manager, Kenneth Crear, said in a release. "She's feeling much better and is ready to hit the road again to finish the tour."
Crear said in Jackson is feeling better and ready to continue her first North American tour in seven years. Upcoming stops include Atlanta, Houston, Dallas, New York and East Rutherford, N.J.
According to her manager, the veteran pop star will be returning to her Rock Witchu tour Wednesday night at the Verizon Center in Washington, D.C., after being forced to postpone nine shows while she struggled with a previouslyundisclosed illness.
"Janet Jackson is ready to get this show on the road. For real. Supposedly.
"After a thorough medical evaluation, it has been confirmed that Janet’s symptoms are being caused by a rare form of migraine called vestibular migraine or migraine-associated vertigo for which she is currently receiving treatment," read a statement released by Jackson's camp and obtained by E! News.
The "Together Again" singer has not performed since falling ill Sept. 29 during a sound check before a show in Montreal.
"Janet wanted very much to resume her tour so as not to disappoint her fans, but she continued to suffer from vertigo and could not perform," her manager, Kenneth Crear, said.
"She's a world-class entertainer and needs to be at the top of her game to give her fans the show they expect. She's feeling much better and is ready to hit the road again to finish the tour."
Shows scrapped in Montreal, Philadelphia, Boston, Greensboro, N.C., Atlanta, Fort Lauderdale, Fla., Uncasville, Conn., Verona, N.Y., and Manhattan are being rescheduled. Disgruntled ticket holders have been asked to hang onto their stubs, which will be honored at the rescheduled dates."
According to 9wsyr.com Janet has cancelled her Monday October 13 concert at the Turning Stone Event Center.
In a statement released Friday night, the Turning Stone says Jackson cancelled the concert “due to doctor’s orders.”
A makeup date has yet to be announced, but once the concert has been rescheduled, tickets for the cancelled concert will be honored for the rescheduled date.
