The 'Chun-Li' star admitted the level of tour she hopes to deliver to fans simply 'can't be up and running in a month' which means it has to be pushed back, meaning Future is no longer available to take part.

However, an unofficial source at ticket seller Live Nation has spoken out about the 'abysmal' ticket sales, telling an American tabloid: "Nicki’s tour could be the most disappointing ticket sales of the year for any artist".

"These are big arenas with up to 20,000 capacities [...] even her hometown Brooklyn is only 5,050".

Despite the disappointing news, Nicki's loyal fans have been expressing their support for the singer, and even helping her to come up with alternative headline ideas.

Yes, ok. I will do that for the US. ♥️ https://t.co/LRZyX8jnnm

So, we guess it's a matter of waiting to see how packed out those arenas are when the tour finally kicks off, and in the mean time, check out Nicki's new savage attitude which has seen her calling Kylie Jenner who she 'loves' for helping boyfriend, Travis Scott, beat her to the number 1 spot by promising she and Stormi will be on tour with him.
