Kanye 'Ye' West Pulls Out Of Coachella 2022, Music Festival Loses Top Headliner
Rapper Kanye West, also known as “Ye,” has dropped out of the Coachella music festival where he was slated to be a top headliner.
The news comes from sources connected to West, TMZ first reported Monday. There has been no confirmation from West or his reasons for not performing.
West was scheduled to perform on the last night of the two-weekend festival in Indio, California, which is set for April 15-17 and April 22-24. He was a headliner, along with Billie Eilish and Harry Styles.
West, 44, has come under fire for questionable behavior. He recently lashed out at his ex-wife Kim Kardashian and her current boyfriend Pete Davidson. He was also temporarily banned from Instagram for violating its harassment policy after using racial slurs in a post about "The Daily Show" host Trevor Noah.
West was also unable to attend the Grammys due to “concerning online behavior,” his spokesperson said. He had five Grammys nominations, which included best rap song for “Jail” and album of the year for “Donda.”
Travis Scott and West reportedly had plans to perform together at Coachella. Scott was originally scheduled to perform but was pulled after 10 people died at the 2021 Astroworld music festival.
