Toni Braxton is recovering after being hospitalized earlier this month, but her Las Vegas show has been canceled for the rest of the month.

According to reports, 40-year-old Braxton is undergoing tests after her April 7 hospitalization for chest pain. The cause of the paid hasn't been made public yet. But, according to the Associated Press, she has been treated in the past for pericarditis, a viral inflammation of the heart.

She was released from the hospital the day after.

The Flamingo Las Vegas says her shows are canceled, and the singer will take a break, in the midst of a two-year run at the hotel. Shows will resume on May 6.

The hotel and casino is offering refunds for the canceled shows.
