NEW YORK, USA (AP) — Aretha Franklin has cancelled appearances in Chicago and Connecticut later this month under a doctor’s recommendation.

A Monday news release says Franklin will need treatment during the time period shows were scheduled with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra on May 20 and at Foxwoods Resort & Casino in Connecticut on May 26. The release doesn’t specify what kind of treatment and her publicist did not immediately respond to a message seeking details.
