The respiratory infection that posponed the start of the European leg of Whitney Houston’s “Nothing But Love Tour” has landed the pop diva in a Paris hospital. Houston has been hospitalized in the City of Lights suffering from nose and throat problems, a member of her entourage said on Wednesday.
The 46-year-old “Comeback Kid” canceled the first concert of her UK tour in Paris on Tuesday due to illness — and now Whitney has pulled out of tomorrow’s show in Manchester, England, a member of her entourage told The Associated Press Wednesday. In fact, Houston’s out of commission for the rest of the week.
Whitney had been due to perform in the UK on April 8 and 9, but the gigs have been rescheduled for June 16 and 17. Houston is next set to perform on April 11 in Glasgow, Scotland.
The source says the “Million Dollar Bill” singer is being treated in The American Hospital in Paris for “chronic rhinopharyngitis (a swelling of the mucus membranes in the nose and pharynx) and an infection whose cause has not been identified.”
