UPDATE: Lady Gaga has revealed why she and Kanye cancelled the Fame Kills tour.

Appearing at the Billboard Women in Music Event today, Gaga admitted “It was a mutual decision. Kanye’s going to take some time off. But the good news is that I’m going on tour in a few weeks.”

This comes after Gaga’s longtime choreographer Lori Ann Gibson tweeted that it was “creative differences” between the two stars that put the kibosh on the tour.

It was killed before it even began. Kanye West and Lady Gaga’s Fame Kills tour has officially been cancelled.

A week after the tour dates were announced, promoters Live Nation have pulled the plug on the massive tour and without giving a reason.

This has led to plenty of whispering online as to what caused the cancellation, with many insiders claiming it was because:

a) Fans were still hating on Kanye for his actions at the MTV VMAs
b) Lady Gaga wanted out to do a smaller headlining tour of her own
c) The two stars’ parties were “at each other’s throats” OR
d) Ticket sales “sucked” (to quote one report)

The news is a bit surprising considering earlier this week an excited Gaga gave MuchMusic a detailed explanation of the concert.

One thing we do know is that it wasn’t because 50 Cent called it the “gay tour” – a remark he took back yesterday in an apology posted on his website.
