Meanwhile, Keys��� support act, Jordin Sparks, is taking her vocal rest very seriously after being diagnosed with a career-threatening throat illness.In a statement released on Monday, the former American Idol winner writes, ���I���m supposed to be on full vocal rest, which means no talking, laughing, giggling, and singing. It���s hard.���
Sparks hopes to join Keys��� tour by the end of the week.
