Update: Utada has cancelled her American appearances this week due to an acute case of left relapsing peritonsillitis. Doctors advised her not to travel or use her voice for at least two weeks, but Utada's website says that "she looks forward to rescheduling [her appearances] as soon as she can." Thanks, AnimeMaine.
