(CNN) -- Although she split from cyclist Lance Armstrong, singer Sheryl Crow got a taste of what her ex-fiance went through during his battle against cancer.
The Grammy Award winner underwent surgery Wednesday for "minimally invasive" breast cancer, and her prognosis is excellent, her publicist said Friday.
"I am inspired by the brave women who have faced this battle before me and grateful for the support of family and friends," Crow said in a written statement. "I am joining the more than 200,000 women who will be diagnosed with breast cancer this year."
Crow, who turned 44 this month, will receive radiation treatments as a precaution, but her doctors are optimistic, Dave Tomberlin of Interscope Geffen A&M Records said in a statement.
She is postponing her North American tour scheduled for March and April, but Tomberlin said, "It is Sheryl Crow's intention to reschedule as much of the tour as reasonably possible."
