TORONTO (CelebrityAccess) — Aretha Franklin has dropped out of yet another event due to health concerns, this time, it’s the Toronto Jazz Festival.

Franklin was slated to perform at the Sony Centre for the Performing Arts on June 28th as part of the festival, but event organizers announced that she would be unable to attend on the advice of her doctors.

Franklin missed the festival last year for similar reasons, at the time promising her fans to make up the show this year.

The cancellation was the latest for Franklin, who also announced last month that she would be unable to perform at the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival, as well as a concert at the New Jersey Performing Arts Center on March 25.
