Miley Cyrus cancels Omaha concert

(People.com) -- Miley Cyrus is taking a sick day.

The 16-year-old singer -- who has been battling strep throat all week -- has cancelled her Friday night concert in Omaha, Nebraska, "due to illness," it was announced today. The show is rescheduled for October 13.

During her September 29 concert in Salt Lake City, Utah, the sick star had to take a 15-minute break in the middle of performing before finishing her show. By the next day, Cyrus had a hunch that her sickness may stall her Wonder World tour. "Keep your fingers crossed Omaha. I am not feeling to [sic] good this morning...." she told her fans via Twitter.

Despite reports, Cyrus was not taken to the emergency room on Thursday.
