Kanye West And Lady Gaga Both Still Silent Online About Tour Cancellation

The news broke late yesterday that the “Fame Kills” tour, which was meant to be an over-the-top collaboration between flamboyant rapper Kanye West and uber-theatrical pop star Lady Gaga, was canceled before it ever got off the ground (the tickets had only been on sale for about a week). The promoter sent out a press release announcing the cancellation, but no reason was given for the tour’s DOA status, and so far both West and Gaga have remained silent about why they’re not going on the road together.

Gaga is normally pretty active on Twitter, but she went silent on September 24 (the same day that tickets to the “Fame Kills” tour went on sale). Her last update plugs the tickets to the show and talks about how excited she is to present new songs on the trek.
Meanwhile, Web enthusiast Kanye West has updated his personal four times since the announcement, though none of the posts have mentioned the tour. The posts exist in West’s usual blogging idiom, so they focus on design, architecture and cool videos he likes. However, the promos for the “Fame Kills” tour (which center around a topless Lady Gaga) have disappeared from the blog.
It should also be noted that the official site for the tour is still up, but the announcement about the tour cancellation is up. It’s a sad image, actually, as the word “CANCELLED” appears (misspelled, clearly), acting as a reminder of what could have been.
