North West just pulled the plug on her first headlining tour, but she’s already got something brewing behind the scenes that’s got fans on edge.
The 13-year-old daughter of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West was supposed to hit the road with rapper Molly Santana for the Kimokawaii Tour starting August 5 in Dallas, but the entire 14-date North American run has been shelved without explanation.
The cancellation came quietly at first, with tour dates vanishing from ticketing platforms one by one.
Ticketmaster marked the Dallas opener and Toronto show as canceled, while AXS removed the Los Angeles date from its listings.

The tour’s official page disappeared from Santana’s website, leaving fans confused and frustrated.
Then North West finally broke her silence on Instagram Stories, writing: “I was really excited to go on tour w molly santana sadly it isn’t happening anymore but i have something special for u guys see ya soon.”
That cryptic promise of “something special” is all anyone’s talking about now.
Neither artist has explained why the tour fell apart just days before the first show. Molly Santana followed up with her own statement, apologizing to ticket holders who’d already spent money and made travel plans.
“To everyone who bought tickets to the tour i sincerely apologize i know a lot of you have taken time out of your busy schedules and spent your hard earned money planning to be there,” she wrote on Instagram Stories, adding that she’d make it up to supporters soon.
The timing is wild considering North West just proved she’s ready for the big stage.
Back in June, she performed her first solo set at Lyrical Lemonade’s Summer Smash in Bridgeview, Illinois, rocking an all-black Balenciaga fit with oversized shades and blue pigtails.
She tore through “TALKING,” her collaboration with Kanye, plus tracks from her debut EP “N0rth4Evr,” and the crowd went absolutely crazy.
