The show won’t go on for Iggy Azalea.
The Aussie rapper has canceled most of the dates on her upcoming “Bad Girls Tour,” according to Ticketmaster (via Variety). As of press time, all but four of the 21 dates–Minneapolis, St. Louis, Salt Lake City, and Los Angeles–have been scrapped.
Taking to Twitter on Sunday (Oct. 7), Iggy confirmed the cancelation. “Believe me – i was really excited for this tour…and im genuinely disappointed it cant happen this year,” she told fans. “The choice was out of my hands and not my call to make. I hope i will get to see you all in person one day. I love you.”

Iggy’s first North American headlining tour in four years was set to kick off Oct. 27 in Hollywood, Fla. and wrap Dec. 4 in Houston. The five-week trek included opening acts Megan Thee Stallion and CupcakKe. Earlier in the week, the latter announced that she would no longer be on the tour due to a “change of plans.”
“Listen y’all , I went from getting paid 330k on this tour to 30k that’s what I mean by ‘change plans,’” tweeted CupcakKe. “THIS WAS NOT IGGY THAT CHANGED PLANS !!!!! It was the ones that put it together !!!!! Iggy knows I love her …. I just need that bag IN FULL that’s all.”
