Rihanna has postponed tonight's Dallas show because of illness -- she did the same for last night's Houston show. Live Nation is instructing fans to keep their tickets for an as-yet-unscheduled replacement date. Those seeking refunds should go to the point of purchase. The full announcement from the company is below.

Tuesday, 16 April 2013 - Dallas, TX - For Immediate Release:

The Rihanna Diamonds World Tour previously scheduled for this evening in Dallas has been postponed it was confirmed today by Live Nation.

Unfortunately, as a result of illness Rihanna is unable to perform this evening at Dallas's American Airlines Center. Fans are instructed to retain their tickets to this event pending rescheduled show date information.

For complete tour and ticket information, visit: www.Rihannanow.com or www.livenation.com.

The singer hasn't posted anything about the cancellations on her prolific social media accounts. This is the fourth show on this tour she's postponed -- last month she missed Baltimore and Boston dates due to flu and laryngitis.
