Toni Braxton has been admitted to a Las Vegas hospital for an undisclosed ailment.
The Grammy-winning singer entered St. Rose Dominican Hospital Monday night after curtains closed on her show at the Flamingo. The reason for the hospitalization has yet to be released, but hospital officials state Toni is in good condition.
Though it’s not clear why she was admitted, the 40-year-old does suffer from pericarditis, an inflammation of the sac surrounding the heart, which she learned of after the birth of her second son Diezel in 2003.
