Sheryl Crow to postpone tour

Singer Sheryl Crow has had to postpone her US tour after undergoing surgery for breast cancer.

Following the "minimally invasive" operation at a Los Angeles hospital on Wednesday, Crow will now have radiation therapy.

But doctors are confident they have caught the disease early enough and the 44-year-old will make a full recovery.

Crow's publicist says in a statement on her website,

"Sheryl Crow underwent successful minimally invasive surgery for breast cancer. Her doctors confirm her prognosis as excellent and she will receive radiation treatment as a precaution."

Her publicist adds,

"With much regret, she must postpone her complete tour of North America which was scheduled for March/April. It is Sheryl's intention to reschedule as much of the tour as reasonably possible."
