Tour Suddenly Canceled
North West’s first-ever headlining tour has been canceled abruptly before its scheduled launch.
The 13-year-old daughter of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West was set to embark on the Kimokawaii Tour with rapper Molly Santana on August 5 in Dallas, but the show was taken off the ticketing sites.
Dates Marked Cancelled
The first leg of the tour in Dallas, which was set for August 5, and the leg in Toronto on August 17, both had their dates marked as canceled on the Ticketmaster site.
According to reports, the cancellations had since spread to all other 14 cities included in the tour, from Houston, Atlanta, Chicago, and Los Angeles.
One Show Remains
However, the August 25 gig in the San Francisco-based The Midway was still visible on the venue’s website as of the latest update. Therefore, it remains uncertain if the entire tour has been canceled or if some legs will still take place.
Stars Break Silence
North West and Molly Santana both addressed the developments on social media. North West wrote on her Instagram Stories that she was excited to tour with Santana but that it would not happen, noting she had something else in store for her fans. Santana also released a statement apologizing to the fans for the inconvenience.
No Reason Given
The Starlings have not disclosed the reason why the tour was canceled, and their representatives have remained silent on the developments. As of now, no official reason has been given for the sudden cancellations.
Co-Headliner Molly Santana
The 13-year-old was set to headline the leg of the tour with co-headliner Molly Santana, who has been gaining significant fame after collaborating with Drake.
The two had performed together previously, as North West opened for Santana at the Rolling Loud festival in Miami this year.
EP Sparked Momentum
The tour announcement comes after North West’s star has been on a roll, following the massive support for her EP N0rth4evr, released in May. Her family members, including Kim Kardashian and Kris Jenner, have been celebrating her music’s success on social media.
Single Turns Heads
One of the songs from the EP, “Piercing On My Hand,” sees North West addressing the criticism she has been receiving about her appearance and the content of her music. It is one of the most anticipated tracks on the EP as it shows the starling’s thoughts on the issues affecting her.
Career Already Established
North West has had a remarkable career, considering she started when she was just 10 years old. The young starling has been in an animated movie, performed at a concert for one of the world’s most recognizable entertainment brands, and delivered a rap feature in Japanese alongside FKA Twigs.
What Comes Next
Whether the Kimokawaii Tour will happen or not remains uncertain, as it is still unclear if the leg in San Francisco will take place. It is also uncertain if more dates will be added or if the tour will be canceled entirely.
However, North West’s 2023 has been nothing but spectacular, and her career path is set to keep climbing irrespective of the developments surrounding the tour.
