Kanye West was hospitalized last month for stress and exhaustion causing him to cancel the remaining dates of his U.S. Saint Pablo tour.

The news left his fans in the States heartbroken and now his overseas following is about to feel their pain.


A representative from West’s camp informed TMZ that he is no longer just postponing the second leg of his tour; he is canceling the entire European tour. Kanye was scheduled to make stops in Paris, the U.K. and Germany.

Reportedly, West’s psych hospitalization put the 2017 portion of the tour on halt, with no restart date set. At the time Kanye was at UCLA Medical Center, sources affiliated with the rapper insisted the tour would go on, even though the production was immensely behind.


The untimely cancellation of the tour did not pose any financial woes for West because no dates had been officially confirmed and no tickets were sold, according to Live Nation.

West reportedly has an insurance policy that reimburses him for any lost expenses associated with cancellations that result from a medical condition.

Some speculate his hospital stay was intentional to prevent the rapper from getting slammed with a hefty lawsuit. Whatever the case may be, West seems to be making his health and family his priorities.

We hope he continues to have a speedy recovery.
