Toni Braxton has spoken out for the first time about her recent breast cancer scare.
The 'Unbreak My Heart' singer visited specialists after discovering an abnormality in her left breast, but has been left relieved after testing negative for cancer.
Toni told US TV show 'Access Hollywood': "There has been a rumour circulating that I have been diagnosed with breast cancer. After feeling something uncomfortable in my left breast, I went in for a screening.
"I was very fortunate that they did not find anything and I am in great health.
"However, I encourage women to take their annual tests and suggested precautions to prevent this disease that continues to affect so many women."
The six-time Grammy award winner is currently starring in her own Las Vegas show, 'Toni Braxton: Revealed' at the Flamingo Hotel and Casino.
The 39-year-old mother-of-two has sold over 40 million albums worldwide and starred in Broadway shows 'Beauty and the Beast' and 'Aida'.
