Kanye West Reschedules Detroit Tour Date After Kim's Paris Robbery
DETROIT (WWJ/AP) - Kanye West has canceled and rescheduled two tour dates after his wife Kim Kardashian West was robbed at gunpoint in Paris.
LiveNation, promoter of West's Saint Pablo Tour, announced Monday that a concert scheduled for Thursday at the Palace of Auburn Hills has been rescheduled for December 22. Tickets for Thursday's show will be honored on the new date or fans can get a refund. This week's show in Philadelphia is also being postponed.
West's tour will resume Friday in Chicago.
Early Monday, armed robbers broke into a private residence in Paris where Kardashian West was staying, bound her and fled with more than $10 million in jewels. She had been in Paris for the city's fashion week but returned to New York later Monday.
The statement from LiveNation cites "family concerns" as the reason for the postponements.
The Philadelphia show will now be Dec. 13 and the Michigan show Dec. 22.
