Welcome to The Ledge. As was mentioned, there could be some confusion with the artist involved. Melissa Etheridge is one woman with a similar husky voice that has been in the news. Another woman, who I think might be from Australia (coincidental to Stevie's tour going there), actually, is Kylie Minogue. My bet is somehow the info about the Australia tour got mixed in.
If some folks here seem a little bit defensive, it was only a short time ago that someone heard via email that Stevie had a stroke:

I think you'll find most people here are friendly. As far as we all know, Stevie is doing quite well. She has mentioned long in an interview that she has a slight mitral valve prolapse in her heart, some asthma, vocal cord strain, a run with Epstein's Barr, etc. but hasn't had any major health issues. She continues to be involved in the Arizona Heart Institute in terms of fund raising and the City Of Hope, involved with cancer and research among other charities that are meaningful to her.
