After a postponement and the loss of two opening acts, Iggy’s just going to stay home
Iggy Azalea‘s Great Escape Tour was scheduled to be her first arena tour, the victory lap she would take after a record-setting year that included Grammy nominations, #1 hits and performances on some of music’s biggest stages. She went from T.I.‘s protege to an international pop star, and despite the controversies that plagued her via social media, there was no debating the fact that she’d arrived.
The tour, which was expected to feature Tinashe–who tabbed Azalea for the first remix of her latest single, “All Hands On Deck”–and Nick Jonas, has officially been cancelled. Why? The tour was originally postponed from April to September because Azalea undertook most of the creative direction, and needed more time to get it right. However, this week’s announcement of the cancellation came with no reasoning, though some accredit it to low ticket sales.
