TLC Singer T-Boz Comes Down with H1N1


Last week, CNN reported that Boys II Men singer Shawn Stockman tested positive for H1N1 and now T-Boz from TLC has the H1N1 flu (also referred to as swine flu).  


T-Boz, a.k.a. Tionne Watkins, has sickle-cell anemia and as recently as 2007 underwent brain surgery to remove a noncancerous tumor.  T-Boz told Life & Style Magazine:
"My daughter and I had sore throats that lasted about three days, so we went to see an ear, nose and throat specialist. After examining us, he told me my daughter had the flu -- and I had swine flu."
Other celebrities reported to have H1N1 include Backstreet Boys singer Brian Littrell and Rupert Grint from the "Harry Potter" films.
