Nicki Minaj Cancels New Orleans Concert Without Warning, Upsets Fans
On March 18, Nicki Minaj had to postpone her concert at the Smoothie King Center in New Orleans just hours before the doors were set to open.
News channel Fox 8 first reported the postponement of her nearly sold-out show, part of the Pink Friday 2 World Tour, through various sources, including arena personnel, despite no official announcement being made by Ticketmaster or the Smoothie King Center.
The lack of updates from official reps exacerbated the fans’ frustration, leaving many of them clinging to the hope of a rescheduled date.
Hours later, New Orleans’ Smoothie King Center confirmed the sad news that the Nicki Minaj show was indeed postponed and advised fans to hold on to their tickets.
“Due to doctor’s orders, Nicki Minaj must reschedule her NOLA show tonight,” the statement reads. “As Nicki is still sick, our team does not want to run the risk of getting others sick, and Nicki would not be able to give NOLA the show they deserve. We are working diligently to find a new date, so please hold onto your tickets, and we will inform you all soon.”
