Kelly Rowland may be 'Down for Whatever,' but the sexy singer, who doubles as judge on the UK's 'X Factor,' has reportedly been forced to drop her duties on the hit reality competition show indefinitely, as she has been hit hard with a serious throat illness.

K-Row's rep announced, "Kelly is devastated she won't be here for this weekend's show. She is extremely ill with a viral throat infection and her doctors aren't permitting her to fly." That sounds pretty serious!

"Kelly will be returning to the show as soon as she has recovered. The girls have been in touch to wish her speedy recovery and they can't wait for her to get back. More news as we have it," the singer's rep added.

It looks like the self proclaimed "black mermaid" has injured her throat just like the Disney princess Ariel! No news on who, if anybody, will fill in for Rowland on the judges panel while she's quarantined. Get well soon, Kelly!
