Kanye West concert canceled following Trump, Beyoncé rants

Kanye West, well known pretty much nowhere for his cool temperament and thick skin, has had a busy weekend. Fans were left scratching their heads on Sunday when the singer's Nov. 20 concert in Inglewood, California, was suddenly canceled.

Although no explanations have been offered publicly, it may have something to do with Kanye getting booed off the stage on Friday during a San Jose show after he declared his support for President-elect Donald Trump. Adding to the fan tension was the fact that West showed up late to Saturday's concert in Sacramento and then walked off stage after three songs.

Ticketmaster confirmed Sunday that West's latest stop on the Saint Pablo tour had been canceled, just hours before the singer was supposed to take the stage at 8 p.m. PST.

Like the rapper, the ticketing company gave no explanation for the cancellation.

The Forum in Inglewood posted a Twitter message stating that ticket-holders would get refunds at point of purchase and Ticketmaster posted a note on its website that phone and Internet purchases would be automatically refunded.

Ticketmaster was already forced to reach into its pockets this weekend after furious fans demanded refunds for Saturday's show in Sacramento.

West reportedly showed up 90 minutes late to the concert and ended the show early after an extended rant that covered his spat with superstar peers Beyoncé and Jay-Z.

The crowd returned the courtesy, screaming "F*ck you, Kanye!" as some concertgoers exited the venue.

Sunday's concert in Inglewood was originally intended as a make-up show. Earlier this month, West cut short a Nov. 3 show at The Forum citing failing vocal chords and promising to "do better next time," Billboard reported.

As part of the rescheduled show, West had set aside a large number of free tickets for students in inner-city schools and music programs in Los Angeles and greater California.

The next stop on his Saint Pablo Tour (for now) is a Nov. 22 show in Fresno, California.
