It’s the latest problem on Jackson’s tour, her first North American outing in seven years.

The 42-year-old singer was forced to cancel a string of earlier concerts because of a bout of
migraine-associated vertigo. She recently resumed while being treated for the illness, which is characterized by dizziness, imbalance and other symptoms.

Jackson’s upcoming shows are Tuesday in Auburn Hills, Mich., and Saturday in New York. She is expected to announce more dates.
