GaGa Says Fame Kills Tour Cancellation Was A "Mutual Decision" - Announces Solo Tour!

gagagagag.gif

And it was probably for the best!

Lady GaGa was at the Billboard "Women in Music" event in NYC on Friday to receive the Rising Star Award when she addressed the cancellation of her "Fame Kills" tour with Kanye West.

"It was a mutual decision," she says. "Kanye's going to take some time off. But the good news is that I'm going on tour in a few weeks."

YES! YES! YES!

We can't wait!

As for Kanye, he could probably use some serious time off from being in the spotlight!

      Translation - Kanye wouldn't fuck me.



    9. 9

      She ditched Kanye!! Wonder if my tickets are still good for her new tour? Glad I don't have to see that asshole share the stage with her………….

      Little Stefani:
      A blonde banged wig
      and lazar focus
      made her what she has become.
      Her future after music
      is brighter than her present-
      She will become an actress
      ala Cher or Bette Midler
      only with more
      acclaim and success.

    13. 13

      Stop KISSING this stupid bitches ass PEREZ!! She must be paying you for all the GAG GAG coverage! Does she even have any real hair or is she bald from wearing so many sick wigs?



    14. 14

      ohmigeez i hope she comes to orlando, i missed her last time :( ((((((((((((( love you gaga!!



    15. 15

      Ya he could use some time off forever..we don't need douche bags like him around. She is better off without him. She made a good choice.

      Re: vengance – hahahahaha



    17. 17

      Creative difference = gay vs hetero



    18. 18

      HA HA HA no one wants to see these too losers!!!! Gaga will have a shitty tour.. that is if HE goes on tour



    19. 19

      It dont matter people she probly isnt even doing stadius she just does little venues and if she is doing stadiums i bet they dont sell out.



    20. 20

      Good! I wasn't gonna go just because of KW. His ego is too big, nobody would fit in the venue! Now I can see LADY GAGA!



    21. 21

      Tired of the lies! POOR TICKET SALES DUE TO KANYA!!!!!!!



    22. 22

      Going on tour with Kanye right now will ruin her reputation. She does not need Kanye for a tour, she is capable of selling out places on her own.



    23. 23

      yess



    24. 24

      SHE WAS JUST ON TOUR. I SAW HER IN PHILLY AT THE ELECTRIC FACTORY AND IT WASNT THAT GREAT. I WISH SHE WOULD GO BACK IN THE STUDIO AND RECORD.



    25. 25

      Gaga is annoying Perez. So are you.



    26. 26

      And let the countdown to rehab begin. He's such a loser. And its really sickening how many so called celebs think that going to rehab will erase all their issues. His attitute adn behavior at the VMA's is the norm for him. Not the first time he's interrupted someone on stage. And I doubt it was only the al-al-al-alcohol.



    27. 27

      effff where can i get thes tickts



    28. 28

      GOOD! i don't like either of them, but i didn't want him to drag her down!



    29. 29

      love me some gaga



    30. 30

      Re: g.babyl0c805 – Don't you have anything better to do? Like clean up the stanky calcium out of your used up asian vag?



    31. 31

      Uhhh, wtf happened to Perez



    32. 32

      Good move on her record labels part …



    33. 33

      i must agree with Kayne for talking the time to recuperate his career in another direction it is the best thing now .
      just go out an rock to you best love the look



    34. 34

      anyone remember that scene in the first season of south park where the Russian space craft just so happens to land on Kenny in the beginning of the Halloween episode? …yea, holy fuck I hope that happens to gaga on a live interview.



    35. 35

      Please….GaGa can sell out places on her own? She can't do arenas like Kanye can. She'll be stuck with small venues of 1,000ish people. Kanye can fill up freakin' arenas with 40,000 people. Ruin her rep? PSH, she would have gotten so much exposure from touring with Ye. New people onto her music that didn't even know her. The fact is Kanye is MUCH larger than GaGa will ever be. They settled on not doing the tour so be it, but don't say GaGa is that big. Clearly she's not, and her music isn't that good. I guess freak = artist nowadays.



    36. 36

      YES!!!



    37. 37

      SHES SCARED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      maybe her tickets werent selling, and i thought she had his back.

      i think she was scared………so much for backing him up.

      gaga ur looking stupid!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!and scared, go with it so we can see this HUGENESS that u were talking about



    38. 38

      Damn.. she's ugly



    39. 39

      … and his loser gf.



    40. 40

      of course she has to do her own tour, nothin but small venues, cause no way that girl could do big shows.



    41. 41

      I heard it was cancelled due to poor ticket sales. Sounds like a cover up. Kanye, no doubt, didn't want his microphone taken away from him on stage and tomatoes thrown at his face.



    42. 42

      Re: YOUR FAV in TEXAS – I thought the same thing! Donatella Versace!



    43. 43

      She doesn't need/require anyone but herself for a world wide tour. She's amazing all on her own. Leave the K behind.



    44. 44

      I am so gladd she dropped him

    45. ap076 says – reply to this


      45

      Well I like many called this one. I hope this can be directly attributed to Kanye's behavior and he realizes he who lives by the sword dies by the sword ie, his behavior at public events needs to change or his career is over. You need fans and fans go for the personality of the artist, as much as the quality (and there is considerable talent here) of the artist's music. As for (the more recent issue (and separate from his being an asshole) needing rehab and whether there is a problem here, only he and his family/friends know the answer and he has to be willing to put down the booze and seek help, genuinely and not for publicity. This cancellation is the best thing for everyone all around.

      46

      she looks like a younger uglier donatella versace. gianni would love her. but come on baby we all already know that the show wasnt selling. buh bye kanye.



    47. 47

      Live Nation pulled the plug and therefore, it's a mutual decision. If she really had a hand in the decision, she wouldn't have defended him just 2 days ago.



    48. 48

      Perez, it's poor ticket sales. Everyone is still pissed at Kanye and Gaga can't sell out big venues yet. Get over it. Gaga is bigger in your head than she is in reality. She's a rising star, but she's no Britney yet.



    49. 49

      ya…… definitly not going. freak



    50. 50

      Lady Gaga is awesome! I love her and her music! :)



    51. 51

      nah its more likely that no one wanted the shitty tickets



    52. 52

      Too funny perez…ticket sales were awful because they both suck. If people wanted to see her, they would have paid the money anyways. She is having to do smaller venues so she can say she sold something out. You call her the pop of princess which i think is absolutely rediculous. Britney was playing huge venues and having no problem what so ever. Kayne and GaGa can both suck it. She is will never be britney spears status. Get over itl



    53. 53

      Looks like Perez is moderating his comments again..



    54. 54

      Perez, when are you going to stop sucking Lady GAGA's cock??? Oh that's right, she is paying you to promote her.



    55. 55

      Lady Gaga does not look like a lady to me…she looks like a guy…and not a good looking one at that!!

      56

      is it just in the us or a world tour cuz i would looove to se her in Sweden again she whas AWESOME at Grönalund!!



    57. 57

      Kanye will be back. But first he needs to take some time off and lay off the bottle! Good luck with that! As for Lady Gaga she can do well on her own.
      The big winner in all this mess: Taylor Swift I bet she sleeps well at night.
      She had the class to forgive Kanye and move on. That took a lot of guts.
      Now if everyone else can just move on. The Lady will be fine. Good luck with your next tour Gaga! JMO!



    58. 58

      Re: the squirrel
      I agree 100%. Kanye WAS prob. trying to ruin her reputation. Nice to cancel out AFTER she puts it on the line by sticking up for the asshole. Maybe he doesn't want her to get more attention and fame than Beyonce lets say….GaGa will have no problem touring on her own…I was actually shocked to see him on the same card as her..



    59. 59

      so wait.. is she still going to the same places etc?

      still waiting for news, urrr..



    61. 61

      don't you mean some serious time off so that the public has enough time to forget what a wanker he is? true.
      As for Ga Ga…. who cares. You couldn't pay me to go to one of her shows, she sucks.

      once again….it doent matter what happens to gaga, she is golden…i was told the tour was cancelled due to ticket sales….gaga cant support a tour on her own….then it would really be the GAY tour….



    64. 64

      HAHAHAHHA
      She will never sell out arenas like a REAL artist
      her concert will be another bomb in the making….
      lAdy CACA is at minite 10 of her 15

    65. 65

      YYYYYYYYYYYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYY!!! I



    66. 66

      it'll be just as good without him.

      67

      Perez censures any GaGa analysis that it longer than 2 line insults. Real analysis of the situation and her position in the industry hurt him too much.



    68. 68

      This tour just went from crappy to GREAT! I didn't want to go till now. Long live Ga-Ga. Down with racist Kanye!



    69. 69

      Re: stephenr – Yeaaaahhh Electric Factory FTW.

      Not surprised to hear she was whatevs.

      BTW - Kanye's big ego/bad personality still = some v. good music, hate to break it to ya, peeps.

    71. 71

      fuck yeah! Can't wait to see Lady GaGa in concert!

      Fuck you, Kanye, hope you disappear forever.



    72. 72

      I knew this was going ot happen, good thing she decided to. Stay away from Kanye, he was only trying to market off your fame anyway. And you are actually talented, Kanye is a good for nothing rapper.



    73. 73

      I'm so HAPPY! I could NOT support the famekills tour with kanye! This is wonderful! :D

      don't really listen to her music much, but she is very talented!! writes her own shit. Very cool.



    75. 75

      Good! Now that Gerbil face (Kanye) is out the mix, I may actually want to go!



    76. 76

      Who WOULD wanna tour with Kanye right now??



    77. 77

      Fucking finally. Kanye-go hide in a cave.



    78. 78

      Designer clothes and talent doesn't make a performer. You need respect, class and humility to reach your fans. In those three areas, Kanye West needs a makeover.

      Live Nation didn't have to pair him with Lady GaGa for the "Fame Kills" tour. GaGa has enough talent and energy to stand on her own. If she is to grow as a performer, Lady G needs to experience the touring life, front and center.

      Thanks to Perez, I discovered Lady G's talent. She is a great singer/dancer, with a touch of the theatrical. If she were sharing the stage with Kanye West, I wouldn't have attended any of the concert dates. To Lady G's credit, she didn't attack him in the media. Classy, classy, classy!

      Looking forward to the new concert dates, in which, Lady G will be performing solo. Bravo, Live Nation, the blinders are finally off! Lady GaGa's fans won't disappoint you. We are many, out there, in Concert Land.

      my bucks are on the shitty-ticket-sales-story.
      who on earth would give their hard earned money to see a wanker and that ugly bitch?



    80. 80

      Cancelled due to poor ticket sales. Spin it any way you want, Perez. Your obsession with whatever your GaGa of the month is, leads me to believe that you are seriously mentally ill. Should there be any doubt in anybody's mind, I believe your pouting cryfest over Will i am having the nerve to walk into his own hotel demonstrates vividly that it will not be long until something puts you over the edge and you end up institutionalized. The most you can hope for as far as a legacy goes is perhaps a coctail named after you. One that implies that after you drink it you will become dramamatically hysterical. It will most likely be orange with little blobs of fat in it, like an Asian Tapioca beverage that is gaining in popularity.
