Gambino shuts down world tour plans
Childish Gambino has had to disappoint many fans, as he has announced that his planned New World Tour is no longer on.
The actor and musician, known for his incredible skills in different fields, announced the news via post on X on Friday, October 4th. He had not taken to the stage since September 7 in New Orleans, Louisiana, and after that, he had called off the North American leg of his tour to take care of his health.
On Friday, Gambino offered more clarification about the tour and revealed that the date had been changed from a postponement to a cancellation.
“After my show in New Orleans, I went to the hospital in Houston to make sure of an ailment that had become apparent,” Gambino explained. “After being assesed [sic], it became clear i would not perform that night, and after more tests, i could not perform the rest of the US tour in the time asked. As of now I have surgery scheduled and need time out to heal.”
“My path to recovery is something I need to confront seriously,” he continued. “With that said, we have made the difficult decision to cancel the remainder of the North American tour and the UK and European dates. Tickets will be refunded at point of purchase.
“I want nothing more than to bring this show to the fans and perform. Until then, thanks for love, privacy, and support.”
