A second Nicki Minaj concert in Amsterdam has been canceled in the wake of the rapper’s brief detention at the city’s airport last week for allegedly carrying “soft drugs,” i.e., marijuana, in her luggage.
“Due to the events of last week, the Nicki Minaj show on Sunday, 2nd June at Ziggo Dome, Amsterdam will no longer be taking place,” Dutch promoter Mojo announced on its website today. “Tickets will be refunded at the point of sale.”
The June 2 is the second Amsterdam stop canceled on Minaj’s Pink Friday 2 World Tour. Last Saturday, she was detained while leaving Amsterdam when Dutch authorities said they’d found marijuana in her luggage. Minaj denied the claims and later met with fans outside her hotel, saying “I love you, and I’m so sorry this happened tonight.”
Following the incident in Amsterdam, Minaj has performed in Manchester, Birmingham, London and Glasgow. She will play in Paris tomorrow, June 1, then Manchester again, Germany and Poland. The U.S. leg of the tour begins this fall, with Sept. 4 concert set for Philadelphia. Subsequent stops include a show at New York’s Madison Square Garden on Sept. 7.
