Kanye West/ Lady GaGa Tour Called Off, 50 Cent Apologizes for Dubbing it “The Gay Tour”

 •  XXL Magazine  •  by XXL Staff  •  26 Comments

“The Fame Kills” tour has been shot down according to a press release by concert promoter Live Nation.

The concert series, which was to be co-headlined by both Kanye West and eccentric pop princess Lady GaGa, was set to kick off in November. Without giving a reason for the cancellation, Live Nation will be giving refunds for any fans that have already purchased tickets.

In related news, 50 Cent—who recently called the outing, “the gay tour” in an interview on New York radio station Hot 97 [Watch Below]— apologized for his comments on his Website, thisis50.com.

“During an interview with Angie Martinez yesterday, certain comments I made were taken entirely out of context,” he wrote in a statement. “When I referred to the Lady GaGa tour as ‘the gay tour,’ I was basically repeating what I thought she had referred to the tour in the past. It was not my intention to offend anyone. I don’t have a problem with anyone’s lifestyle and have no issue with Lady GaGa. She makes great music.” – Elan Mancini

  • won1

    he should apologize for not fixing his teeth after all these yrs…

  • Fireforreal

    I’ll admit when it comes to making you laugh 50 is the new suge knight,but when the fuck is he gonna put ou some more dope music ? the War angel shit was his hottest since get rich but he didn’t follow up with any other quality music since then and now he’s gonna not release an album for another year.When it drops nobody will care because the music will be garbage because interscope cares about sales first and quality second.It will be considered a flop and he’ll say it was hot but just not executed right like he said about his Curtist album LOL

    • $ykotic/Don McCaine

      Homies BISD is dropping in November. I don’t even fux with Curtis but the way the hatred is directed towards him, he will win all day.

      Peep the jewel.

  • SOUTHSIDE A-TOWN

    that is crazy. less than a hr & a half a go i heard a radio commercial selling tickets for it.?

  • The Last Hope

    Seriously…the guy said lol in his rap. loses all respect for his rhymes. How you going talk about weapons and shit and and use shit that 13 year old girls use.

    • tmoney6191

      last hope.. i dont see you dropin anything bitch….just like tony grands u dont want none

  • Mutada/Mullah Atari

    The apology may stem from him and Gaga being on interscope. Maybe he got a call from Jimmy. Also he has his hands in a lot of things now a days. He has more to lose by making homo0phobic comments, he may lose an endorsement deal or somthing . The gay mafia is strong.

    Its kind of fucked up to kick a man while he’s down too(Kanye)

  • Renegade

    Torny grand$ u got knocked the fuck out. . . . . Or maybe u still writing and reciting yo rhymes. . . . . . (still silent) gue$$ we will neva know.
