R. Kelly has recently cancelled some shows from his ‘After Party’ tour, and his alleged 'sex cult' may definitely the reason.
After controversy broke out over accusations of the singer abusing a group of aspiring singers by controlling their every move and forcing them to reside in his residencies. There's no surprise that ticket sales have declined.
Apparently, shows have been cancelled in Louisiana, Dallas, and Los Angeles.
TMZ reports:
Our sources say the 4 stops were nixed due to poor ticket sales, which shouldn’t come as a surprise. As we reported … his Friday night gig in Virginia was barely half full, and fans were pissed he only played for 45 minutes.
Still, sources close to Kelly tell TMZ the tour will absolutely go on, explaining the L.A. show was only canceled because of a scheduling conflict with another nearby stop. The sources would not comment about the other 3 terminated shows.
As of Monday, there are still a few dates left of the “After Party” tour that have tickets for sale.
