Here’s What Happened
In response to Fox 8 Live, Minaj was scheduled to look on the Smoothie King Center in Recent Orleans, Lousiana, on Monday, March 18. Nevertheless, the outlet reports that “just hours before the show,” her concert was “abruptly canceled.”
The Smoothie King Center’s official Instagram account took to the platform around 4 or 5 p.m. on Monday to let fans know why.
“On account of doctor’s orders, Nicki Minaj must reschedule her NOLA show tonight,” the middle’s post reads. “As Nicki remains to be sick, our team doesn’t wish to run the danger of getting others sick, and Nicki wouldn’t give you the chance to present NOLA the show they deserve. We’re working diligently to seek out a brand new date, so please hold onto your tickets, and we are going to inform you all soon.”
The outlet adds that food and beverage vendors received an email in regards to the cancellation on Monday afternoon. Still, some concertgoers appeared upset on the venue for less than issuing a public announcement hours before the concert was scheduled to start.
Instagram user @queen_anaiya1 reacted within the Smoothie King Center’s Instagram comments:
“no person is mad bc she cancelled , it’s the very fact they waited 4 hours before the event to inform us officially”
While Instagram user @youfound.kam added:
“Yall do realize people used there PTO, Paid for rooms, traveled & bought the tickets on top of that, that alone is $500-$1,500 trip especially in case you got the GAG city package. They’re more so upset as a consequence of the unprofessional. They definitely should’ve said something yesterday as an alternative of hours before the show. Js 🤷🏽♂️ definitely a waste of money and time because even when she does refund the tickets, they cant refund their place of stay and transportation. 🤷🏽♂️🤷🏽♂️”
Some Nicki Minaj fans can have seen the mishap coming. On Saturday, March 16, Minaj had taken to X, formerly generally known as Twitter, to share that she wasn’t feeling well.
“Barbz pls send me healing energy. woke up feeling like I had Covid. Thank God I don’t. You guys are only every little thing. I appreciate you. I like you a lot,” she wrote.

Meanwhile, one Instagram user, @lifeasmyesha_, reiterated fans’ frustration with the Smoothie King Center’s late announcement:
“I’m from Recent Orleans…We are usually not mad about her being sick. We’re mad that they cancelled the concert hours before it was suppose to start out. People flew in for this concert. Some people probably took off work. Some people already got their hair and make up done before getting the news. I like Nicki but any individual could have said something sooner. This ain’t right!!”
At the moment, the sector has not shared any announcements in regards to the stops being canceled.
