      George Michael has cancelled a show in Vienna and postponed two more concerts, according to a story in the Telegraph.

      The British pop singer—once referred to as the ultimate "fag hag icon" by Straight writer Craig Takeuchi—is reportedly receiving treatment in Austria for pneumonia.

      He's apparently in AKH Hospital in Vienna.

      When the singer last travelled through Vancouver for "An Evening With George Michael" in July 2008, it was supposed to be part of his final stage tour.

      But earlier this year, he announced a 65-date schedule across Europe. This month, Michael was one of several high-profile performers at London's Royal Opera House for a fundraiser for Sir Elton John's AIDS Foundation.
