Usher and Chris Brown have canceled two upcoming dates on their joint R&B Tour amid speculation of tension between the singers.
Ticketmaster says the November 16 concert at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California, and the December 6 performance at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, Florida, have both been canceled. Fans who purchased tickets will receive refunds through their original payment methods. No official reason has been announced for the cancellations.
The news follows reports of a backstage disagreement between the two R&B stars ahead of their November 5 concert at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta. According to TMZ, the alleged dispute centered on when to start the show as concertgoers faced traffic delays. The Atlanta performance reportedly began more than two hours late, with some attendees expressing disappointment over the shortened concert and the absence of joint performances from the singers.
Neither artist has confirmed the alleged dispute. Brown previously appeared to dismiss reports of tension in a social media post. Despite the speculation, Usher and Brown have continued performing together on the tour, including subsequent Atlanta dates. Other scheduled performances remain unaffected by the latest cancellations, according to reports.
The singers have not publicly explained the decision to cancel the Los Angeles-area and Miami-area shows.
