Keys cancels second concert

Alicia Keys has scrapped a concert in Cleveland after cancelling her show in Pittsburgh earlier this week.

A message posted on her website says the 27-year-old R&B singer has swollen vocal cords.

She was scheduled to perform tonight at Cleveland State University’s Wolstein Centre.

Keys plans to perform in Columbus on Saturday night.

Fans with tickets to the Cleveland show will have their tickets honoured at Value City Arena in Columbus.

They can also get a refund.

Keys is not the only one on her tour with vocal problems.

'American Idol' winner Jordin Sparks was one of the opening acts, but she is now under a doctor’s care and resting her voice, probably until next month.
