Country legend Loretta Lynn was hospitalized Saturday.

The 76-year-old postponed performances Saturday night at the Performing Arts Center in Ashland, Ky., and Sunday in Durham, N.C., due to what "doctors have diagnosed...as the beginning stages of pneumonia."

In a post on her official site, Lynn's camp says the "Coal Miner's Daughter" singer is "doing well and is disappointed [about the concert cancelations], but feels confident she will be ready for upcoming November dates."

Get well soon, Loretta!
