Kanye West “Fame Kills” Tour Killed (By Fame)

HEADS CANCELED
Kanye West & Lady Gaga, @ Staples Center Mon Nov 16 (Cancelabra)

Those of you who were hoping to hit next month’s Staples show in order to have Kanye enlighten you on various things best-of-all-time will have to wait, apparently, as CNN’s reporting Live Nation just announced the tour has already been canceled (we’re told nobody interrupted the announcement):

Concert promoter Live Nation said Thursday that West’s concert tour with Lady Gaga — titled “Fame Kills” — has been canceled just two weeks after it was announced.

The reason for the cancellation was not revealed, but West told NBC’s Jay Leno last month — before the tour was officially announced — that he planned “to take some time off” in the aftermath of his MTV awards show embarrassment.

Take heart, Kanyephile, and enjoy a pre-awards-snafu’d Kanye back in Austin, SXSW ‘09 as captured at the Fader Fort by the ever-reliable Sung.

    thats because no one wanted to support Kanye West after his immature out burst at the VMA’s. Hope it affects his music and his money so he can learn from his mistakes. We the people are buying your bills Kanye

    Interesting. Mental health break maybe? I like Kanye’s music, but I’m kinda Kanye’d out at the moment. “Fame Kills” sounds very appropriate right now. Kills your brain cells probably.
