Breaking News: Live Nation has announced today that the Fame Kills tour is officially canceled. The Fame Kills Tour starring Lady Gaga and Kanye West was supposed to start November 10. Tickets had just went on pre-sale and sale to the public last week with special passwords given for radio stations, Citi Cardholders, and Fame Kills Kanye West Fan Club members. If you joined a fan club you could get special seating or advanced purchasing power. That is all over now and all tickets and even fan club members will be refunded according to a FanFire rep I just spoke to. I told them I wanted my Kanye West Fanclub refunded if the tour is done with.
There has been no explanation given from Live nation or from Fanfire for the cancellation of the concert tour. This was highly predictable though given the fact that Kanye West said he would take some time off during his appearance on Jay Leno following the MTV VMA awards in NYC. I kept waiting to hear that the VMA craziness with Taylor Swift and Kanye West was just a stunt but it ends up it may have really been unrehearsed. MTV is known for their stunts with Enimen and Bruno and others over the years. Then Lady Gaga went on radio stations to promote the tour talking about how the stage will be like no other show and how she wants to take the fame that Kanye has for her own and he wants some of her humbleness lol. Yeah right… as if that makes any sense at all. That indicated to me it was a big joke.
I had also noticed that the ads running for the tour presented only West’s last name with Gaga. Trying to set him apart from his first name Kanye since it has became a curse word lately or more of a joke with people who watched the VMA’s in September. The ads used the West + Gaga logo.
My prediction is that Lady Gaga will soon be on her own headlining tour and Kanye will take a much needed break and be behind the scenes producing music for awhile. We look forward to seeing Lady gaga on her own tour and will be there to buy some damn good tickets to see the princess of pop live!
