SWINE FLU SIDELINES BOYS II MEN SINGER: Shawn Stockman diagnosed with H1N1; unable to make scheduled appearance at Soul Train Awards.

(November 4, 2009)

*The H1N1 virus has caught up with Shawn Stockman of the R&B group Boyz II Men, fellow group members Wanya Morris and Nathan Morris told CNN Tuesday.

The pair said Stockman was unable to accompany them to Atlanta on Tuesday for a scheduled performance at the 2009 Soul Train Awards.

"We tour eight months out of the year, and we are always traveling around," Nathan Morris said. "It's hectic for us always being in airplanes and airports. He got sick, and it hit him pretty hard."

"I talked to [Stockman] today, and he is doing much better," Nathan added.

Wanya and Nathan Morris are still planning to perform at the awards show as a duo, according to the group's manager.

The Grammy-winning and platinum-selling group, known for their No. 1 singles "End of the Road" and "I'll Make Love to You," has a new album out in stores in November called "Love."
