The R and B singer was scalded when she knocked over a warm steam vaporiser as she slept on her tour bus, a source toldTMZ.

Taylor wrote of his 32-year-old wife: 'She walks as a powerful force in the earth. Impacting everything she touches and encounters. I love her determination and sheer will power to not accept defeat on any level. She complains little, but so sacrifices much!'
He said the injury was perhaps a sign Fantasia should slow down 'to reflect', but added that she was already anxious to return to work.
'She's steady asking the Doc "Can I perform tonight?" But we must be wise and realize this isn't a race, but rather a marathon.'
Official: Fans had already being informed of the cancellation, after being told the show was off 'due to unexpected health issues'

Taylor said Fantasia hoped to reschedule, and asked fans to pray for her.
'She had something truly special planned for tonight. So please, keep my Queen lifted in prayer, asking our God to heal her rapidly with no last negative affects. Rock Soul won't be denied, this is simply a delay that will prove to be necessary for what's to come.'
