According to Alicia Keys‘ publicist, a mystery illness has forced Alicia to cancel shows. A mystery illness also forced Jordin Sparks to leave Alicia’s tour.
- After cancelling a concert in Pittsburgh, PA last night, eleven-time Grammy winner, Alicia Keys, must cancel a second stop along her Lexus Presents the Alicia Keys As I Am Tour due to a continued bout with swollen vocal chords. The show was scheduled for Thursday night at the Wolstein Center in Cleveland, OH.
Ticket holders in both cities may contact the respective venues for instructions and fans with tickets for the Cleveland concert will be able to have them honored at the upcoming show in Columbus, OH.
Keys, who is currently being treated by a physician, is expected to return to the stage on Saturday, April 26th at the Value City Arena at the Jerome Schottenstein Center in Columbus.
Alicia Keys recently wrapped up a successful European run and kicked off the highly anticipated U.S. leg in Hampton, VA on April 19th. The As I Am Tour is in support of Keys’ 5 X worldwide platinum album, As I Am, which has spawned smash hit songs including the Grammy Award winning, “No One,” “Like You’ll Never See Me Again” and “Teenage Love Affair.”

Alicia needs to quit making out with that microphone.
she looks very orangy in this pic. i hope she gets better.
If she can stop SCREAMING at the mic then she wont have swollen vocal chords!
@mia alicia needs to quit making out with that microphone.
Sandra enlarged the pic of Ashanti and I tought it to be making out with the mic.
Sorry Sandra, love the site but noticed the close up pic.
I was at the Pittsburgh Show ans I’m also apart of the fanclub. there is a much bigger picture here that i will be willing to share when and if the time presents itself. and thats real talk.

There’s no better time than the present. Let’s talk!
Does her illness have anything to do with her orange coloring…?? She needs to have that checked out too!
Seriously though…both she and Jordin Sparks are claiming to have the same “vocal cord” condition. Sandra…tell us what’s really up!
LB: share the picture….
im waiting to see if the show is rescheduled. if it is, then what i know is irrelevant. if its not, imma sing like a bird. all imma say for now is that her appearance on 106 & park today was NOT recorded before the Pittsburgh show. take what u want from that.
if she thinks her haters can light her ass up, wait until she sees what disappointed fans can do….
Is she pregnant?

That’s from the expensive Mustard Facials I told you about.
@ LB: Spill the tea!
could the mystery illness that both girl have be a lack of ticket sales? hummmm. as much as i love alicia, i find it funny that both girls would be sick. ummm, go figure
Dayummmmmm!!!
Look at her face compared to her hands….DAYUMMMMMMMM
AK what’s really good.
And I see that we shall begin the pregnancy rumors now. Seeing as though someone said AK and the Crucial guy were engaged.
Whatever is turning her face orange, might be making her vocal cords swell. That can happen with these cosmetic treatments - side effects.
i’m with sandra…just tell it.
lawdddd this is a blog.. come out with the gossip already.. i mean if PEOPLE MAG can write gossip why cant we…. LB spill ya guts!!!
LB tell it like it is boo boo
oh child I had to go and look at the pic again because ya’ll were talking about the orange color… OH YES LAWD.. that cant be good… and ughhhh that mic is just nasty with all that lipstick on top of it…. UGHHHHHHHHHHH She got to do better
i wonder what is her fee for doing a concert…i remember when britney spears was getting like 800k per show…man thats crazy money….
Did she mistake the mic for an on-road tour dildo?
LB - I mean damn, don’t be about it, SPEAK about it. Or however that saying goes.
Is a spray tan really necessary Alicia? Wendy Williams alluded to something about the tour on her show yesterday too…
ewwwwww I wonder if they both caught some type of virus. I think it’s odd that two people on the same tour has the same illness?????????
Get well Alicia and Jordin! Take care of y’all voices.
I hope she’s the only one that uses that mic…or else that would explain why her ass got sick!!!!
Boy…she needs to step away from the spray tan…
