After rumors swirled online about her health on the heels of the singer canceling several concert dates due to illness, Janet Jackson said in a statement Wednesday that she does not have cancer.
Jackson said in a video released on Twitter, captioned,
"The rumors are untrue. I do not have cancer. I am recovering. From my lips..." and set to her song "The Great Forever."
"Thank you for your prayers and love."
The singer announced in December that she would postpone several 2016 dates on her "Unbreakable" world tour, telling fans in a Twitter note that she had been advised to have surgery.
She wrote,
"I need you to know, I learned today, from my doctors that I must have surgery soon. It breaks my heart to tell you that I am forced to postpone the Unbreakable Tour until the spring."
