SHOCK! Janet Jackson diagnosed with vertigo

Rare form of migraine responsible for singer's cancelled tour dates

Janet Jackson will resume her North American tour tonight

Janet Jackson has been diagnosed with a rare form of migraine.

The singer was forced to pull out of 9 shows across North America after being admitted to hospital in Montreal last month.

‘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,’ a statement says.

But Janet, 42, is expected to resume her Rock Witchu tour tonight in Washington.

‘She's a world-class entertainer and needs to be at the top of her game to give her fans the show they expect,’ manager Kenneth Crear tells E! Online.

‘She's feeling much better and is ready to hit the road again to finish the tour.’

Shows cancelled across will be rescheduled.
