"Fame Kills": Tour by Kanye West and Lady Gaga cancelled
The scheduled tour of Kanye West and Lady Gaga has has an unscheduled demise. This tour was going to start from the 10th of november this year and was dubbed as one of the most remuer’ creating experience among all tours.
The announcement was made in New York on Thursday by Live Nation, who were organizing this event. In the announcement no explanation for the cancellation was given. It was just said that the tickets already bought would be refunded. Those bought on the net or by phone would be refunded on their own, automatically, while the ones bought from a counter could get their money back from the counter they bought from.
“Fame Kills”, as the tour was called was to start at Phoenix, curl 34 places around the US and Canada and end in Dallas on the 24th of January 2010. It is quite strange that the tour announced just two months ago would see such an untimely end.
The Grammy Rap awardee, West doesn’t need anymore humiliations after his spunk (to put it mildly) visit to Taylor Swift on the MTV VMA stage a few weeks ago. That incident did some serious collateral damage to his image. Pretty much like the name of this tour. He killed his fame by busting Swift’s award speech and declaring “Single Ladies” by Beyonce as the “best” video.
From then on, life doesn’t seem to be “sweet dreams” for our 34 year old rap-artist. On “The Jay Leno Show”, last month, West agrees that he had blundered big time and hurt “somebody else”. He wants to take time off and “just analyze” how he woulld be getting “through the rest of this life” and how he could improve himself.
That is some serious thinking dude. Now that your tour is off the hook, it’s the perfect time to mull over everything you want to “analyze”.
