Canadian singer Celine Dion has postponed a series of Australian concerts
as part of her world tour due to a throat infection, her publicists said
yesterday.
Dion is in Australia as part of her first world tour in 10 years, with
concerts set for Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Perth.
"Her doctor has instructed her to rest for an additional 48 hours in order to
be fully recovered," her publicists said in a statement on Friday.
The infection forced Dion to postpone her Melbourne and Brisbane concerts
earlier in the week, with two Sydney concerts also now postponed for a week.
Dion, a Grammy Award winner, sold more than 27 million copies of the hit song
"My Heart Will Go On" from the soundtrack of the movie Titanic.
