Childish Gambino postpones final tour due to injury
By Andy Malt | Published on Wednesday 26 September 2018
Donald Glover has postponed dates on what he has said will be his final tour as Childish Gambino, after reportedly breaking his foot.
It is as yet unclear how many shows will be postponed, although LA’s Forum venue has confirmed that tonight’s planned show will not go ahead.
On Twitter, Glover’s manager Fam Rothstein said: “‘This Is America’ tour is postponed, not cancelled. My guy played through the pain, but has to sit some dates out. Back before the year’s over”.
Glover ended a show in Dallas around 30 minutes early on Sunday, after apparently injuring himself. But sources later told TMZ that the injury did not occur on stage in Dallas, as had originally been reported, rather an existing injury was causing new pain.
He is said to have arrived for a show in Las Vegas on Friday in a wheelchair and wearing a leg brace, taking it off before getting on stage.
