Christina Aguilera has been gearing up for her Las Vegas residency for months; and just as she is finally ready to unleash the genie in the bottle, she has to pack it up again--because she's sick with the flu.
"After welcoming you all to the new year from the stage in Las Vegas, I've been welcomed with a new year flu!" The 43-year-old singer wrote in a social media update.
"I am sorry to share that my two shows this weekend will be rescheduled while I rest-and I cannot wait to be back on that stage in a few weeks."
She went on to say that she is "incredibly proud" of her upcoming show and that she will see her fans soon.
The postponement announcement comes a few days after Aguilera expressed her excitement to bring her highly anticipated residency to life this year and begin a "new chapter."
