Christina Aguilera postpones tonight's Detroit show

Bummer for Detroit Xtina fans — tonight's gig has been unexpectedly postponed due to illness. The singer took to her Twitter account to bear the bad news:

Ahhh😭😭
It pains me to say, I have been doing all I possibly can to speed recovery and I’m so much closer, but on my doctors orders I’m unable to perform the show tonight in Detroit.

I am in LOVE with this show and performing it for all of you every night so it’s killing me to have to take a pause, but trust I WILL be coming back to make them up stronger & better than ever....

I owe it to my fighters to give you 100% for EVERY show. You have my word that it will be worth the wait.

Love, Xtina

Aguilera was also forced to postpone a gig in Ontario earlier this week. According to a brief email from promoter 313 Presents:

Christina Aguilera’s “The Liberation Tour” performance tonight at the Fox Theatre has been postponed until a later date. Details on the rescheduled date will be released early next week.

Well, dang. In the meantime, here's the video for "Genie in a Bottle."
