Kanye West and Lady Gaga’s highly anticipated tour is over before it even began. Just days after announcing dates for an ambitious joint show that was to kick off next month, the tour was canceled.
Live Nation announced the news in a brief statement Thursday that did not offer any explanation. Refunds are available for those who brought tickets for the tour. It was to kick off Nov. 10 in Phoenix and was scheduled to run through at least January.
Publicists for both West and Lady Gaga did not immediately return requests for comment. Live Nation said there was no further information.
If you remember, I had predicted trouble for this tour, given Kanye West’s outburst at the VMAs, and the resulting backlash from the public. There are a lot of Lady Gaga fans out there that want to see her, and it wouldn’t surprise me to see her put together a smaller solo tour in the wake of this latest development.
We’ll keep you posted!
