Charli XCX Responds to Fan Backlash Over Limited Tour Dates: ‘Emotionally and Physically Hard’
The singer recently announced a six-show 2027 run across Dublin, Glasgow, Manchester, London, Amsterdam and Paris.
Charli XCX has addressed fan criticism regarding the limited number of dates on her upcoming UK and European leg of the Music, Fashion, Film tour. The tour consists of six shows across Dublin, Glasgow, Manchester, London, Amsterdam and Paris. In an Instagram post, Charli expressed her regret over the backlash, stating that touring is "emotionally and physically hard" for her.
She apologized for any disappointment, explaining that she is not built for the intense, lengthy and high-octane touring lifestyle. The artist also mentioned that she shortened the tour for the same reasons in her recent North American run. Despite the fan disappointment, Charli hopes both fans and herself will enjoy the shows, and she vowed to stay in a healthy and positive mindset during the tour.
The tour supports her seventh studio album, Music, Fashion, Film, which was released on July 24 and marked a shift towards darker, grittier rock sounds. The album debuted at No. 1 on the Official U.K. Albums Chart and No. 3 on the Billboard 200 in the U.S. The UK and European leg of the tour comes after a successful summer, including a headline set at Reading Festival, and precedes the North American leg, which began on September 11 in Philadelphia.
