Pink has postponed two shows on her Trustfall Tour due to 'family medical issues'

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Pop sensation Pink, whose Trustfall Tour has been making waves, has announced the postponement of two upcoming concerts in Tacoma, US.

The affected shows, initially scheduled for October 17 and October 18, are now on hold due to unforeseen "family medical issues," as per Daily Mail.

Pink postpones tour dates amid medical issues

The 'So What' hitmaker expressed her apologies to ticket holders via the X platform.

In her message, Pink assured fans that Live Nation is actively working on rescheduling these dates. She expressed regret over the inconvenience caused and wished her fans nothing but love and health.

Pink's Trustfall Tour, featuring her powerful performances, is set to resume on October 20 with two shows in Vancouver, Canada. Afterward, fans can anticipate captivating performances in Denver, Kansas City, and other cities across North America.

Earlier this year, Pink encountered an unexpected disruption during her Summer Carnival Tour. In a bold move, she ejected a protestor who had interrupted her acoustic segment with a sign criticizing circumcision.

The incident garnered significant attention on social media, with Pink addressing the disruption and even humorously referencing her plans to spend the protestor's money on a Birkin bag. Security personnel escorted the man out, leaving the crowd buzzing with mixed emotions.

Pink's Summer Carnival tour's success and rescheduled show

Pink's Summer Carnival Tour has been a resounding success, grossing a staggering $257.6 million and selling 1.8 million tickets across 41 shows. The tour commenced with 19 shows in Europe, generating $106.8 million from 871,000 tickets sold.

It then crossed the Atlantic to the US and Canada, where it achieved a remarkable $150.7 million in revenue from the sale of 914,000 tickets.

In a previous setback, Pink had to cancel a show at the Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas, due to a severe sinus infection. She expressed her deep disappointment in a heartfelt post and promptly announced a rescheduled show for November 26.

Pink addressing controversy surrounding Israeli flags

Recently, Pink, also known as Alecia Moore, found herself embroiled in a controversy related to her concerts. Amid heightened tensions in the Middle East, Pink denied allegations that Israeli flags were displayed during her shows.

She took to X, previously Twitter, to clarify her stance, stating, "This post will be controversial for some. At this point, breathing is controversial." Pink firmly asserted that she was not flying Israeli flags during her performances.

The acclaimed pop star revealed that her tour featured Poi flags, traditionally associated with peace and used by New Zealand's Maori people.

Pink expressed her admiration for the Maori culture and people, emphasizing that the flags were chosen as a symbol of beauty and not as a statement of support for any particular cause. She reiterated her unwavering position of flying only the rainbow flag.

Pink facing threats and promoting peace

In the wake of these clarifications, according to The Hollywood Reporter, Pink faced threats and backlash on social media. In response, she implored for understanding, reiterating her commitment to peace, equality, and love.

The global state of affairs deeply saddened her, and she extended her prayers to all affected by ongoing conflicts.

The controversy emerged against the backdrop of recent hostilities in the Middle East, with Hamas attacks leading to casualties on both sides.

The situation prompted numerous celebrities, including Natalie Portman, Jerry and Jessica Seinfeld, Jamie Lee Curtis, Gal Gadot, Amy Schumer, and Chelsea Handler, to express support for Israel on social media.

Additionally, supermodel Gigi Hadid, who is of Palestinian descent, voiced her concerns regarding the suffering of innocent people and reiterated her long-standing support for the Palestinian cause.
