Thug Chris Brown’s Australian Tour Cancelled

by Paul Cashmere on December 2, 2015

in Live,News

The Australian and New Zealand tour for celebrity thug Chris Brown has been cancelled.

Brown, who is better known for his history of domestic violence than his music, agitated many Australian’s when the tour was announced. Concerned people petitioned the Australian government to refuse Brown a Visa.

It is understood that last week both the Australian and New Zealand governments refused to allow Brown to enter the two countries.

Statement from Chris Brown’s Promoter

Chris Brown’s December 2015 tour in both Australia and New Zealand will not take place. The shows scheduled at Perth Arena on 9 December, Rod Laver Arena on 12 December, Allphones Arena on 14 December and Brisbane Entertainment Centre on 16 December are cancelled.
Mr Brown and the promoters both remain positive that the tour will take place in the near future.
Mr Brown wishes to express his deepest gratitude to the fans for their support and looks forward to a successful tour in the near future.
