Singer Janet Jackson was hospitalized Monday while on tour in Montreal, TMZ reports.
Jackson was taken to the emergency room with an unspecified ailment when she suddenly took ill during her sound check. She cancelled the gig shortly before it was supposed to have started.
The singer, who's on her Rock Witchu tour, also cancelled a show Friday in Detroit, citing "production constraints."
No word yet on how, or whether, her hospitalization will affect Jackson's performance scheduled for Oct. 11 at Mohegan Sun.

Cause nobody wants to be the last one there
Everyone wants to feel like someone cares
Someone to love with my life in their hands
There’s gotta be somebody for me like that
Cause nobody wants to do it on their own
Everyone wants to know they’re not alone
Somebody else that feels the same someway
There’s gotta be somebody for me out there

Nickelback “Gotta Be Somebody” Lyrics
This time I wonder what it fells like
To find the one in this life The one we all dream of
But dreams just tough enough
So I’ll be waiting for the real thing
I’ll know it by the feeling
The moment when we’re meeting
It’ll play out like a scene
Straight off the silver screen
So I’ll be holding my breath
Right up to the end
Until I move my way
I’ll find the one that
I’ll spend forever with
Cause nobody wants to be the last one there
Everyone wants to feel like someone cares
Someone to love with my life in their hands
There’s gotta be somebody for me like that
Cause nobody wants to do it on their own
Everyone wants to know they’re not alone
Somebody else that feels the same someway
There’s gotta be somebody for me out there
Tonight Out on the street Out in the moonlight
And dammit this feels too right
It’s just like déjàvu
Me standing here with you
So I’ll be holding my breath
Could this be the end?
Isn’t that movie where I find the one that I spend forever with
Cause nobody wants to be the last one there
Everyone wants to feel like someone cares
Someone to love with my life in their hands
There’s gotta be somebody for me like that
Cause nobody wants to do it on their own
Everyone wants to know they’re not alone
Somebody else that feels the same someway
There’s gotta be somebody for me out there

Canadian Icon Singer Songwriter GORDON LIGHTFOOT Back on the Road Doing what he loves
Six years after an abdominal aneurysm nearly ended his life, Gordon Lightfoot is back on the good foot. The legendary Canadian singer-songwriter, 69, was interviewed last week at home in Toronto as he prepared to hit the road for a six-week tour.
INTERVIEW OF GORDON LIGHTFOOT
Q: What allure does performing still hold for you?
A: There are quite a few people I could name right now who are a bit older than me who are still doing it. It's the passion, I guess. It's the love of the work and the communication with the audience and the ongoing quest for the perfect intonation.
Q: "The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald" is heard in a new Imax movie, "Mysteries of the Great Lakes." Why did you let the filmmakers use the song?
A: I did it at the request of two of the members of the ladies committee [representing families of crew members who died in the 1975 shipwreck].
We've always conferred whenever one of these things would come up.
I said, "I'll do it, but give $15,000 to the Northwestern Michigan [College] scholarship." [Lightfoot established a scholarship at the college's Great Lakes Maritime Academy in 1976, the same year "The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald" became a Top 5 hit.]
Q: Your last album, "Harmony," came out in 2004. Are you writing new material?
A: I don't get seriously involved in that. I've completed all of my recording obligations.
My last [album] for Warner Bros. was in 1998. . . . I decided a couple years later I might try for one more ["Harmony"], as an afterthought. I got it down to the point where I had some rough vocal-and-guitar tracks . . . and all of a sudden, I was down with an aneurysm and I was out for two years.
The main reason why I'm glad I came back is because I can sing again and I can play again and I can get out in front of a crowd again. For about a year or so there, I didn't think that was gonna happen. I figured I was done.
Q: On any given night, when you sing "If You Could Read My Mind," what goes through your mind?
A: I always think about my first wife, Brita, the Swedish lady that I was married to. We have two children, my two eldest children.
I always think of her when I do that song, because it was written right around the time that our marriage came apart. So she's there. She's with me.
Q: If I went back and listened to every album you've made, how good a picture would I have of your life?
A: Well, I hope you never have to do that. But I'll tell you: Yes . . . it would be a very good life story, a story of my life -- that roller-coaster ride through life.
