Summer-festival ticket holders: It’s time to put away the cheetah-print Hawaiian shirts and pastel-toned crew socks because Tyler, the Creator will no longer be in attendance. Megan Thee Stallion will replace the Call Me If You Get Lost rapper and Coachella headliner for this year’s edition of Lollapalooza on June 20. “Unfortunately, Tyler, the Creator will not be able to perform this year,” the festival said in a tweet. “See @theestallion headline Lolla on Thursday, August 1st!” Megan joins fellow headliners Hozier, SZA, Stray Kids, The Killers, Future x Metro Boomin, Blink-182, and Melanie Martinez for the festival held in Chicago’s Grant Park from August 1 to August 4.
Tyler was additionally set to headline San Francisco’s Outside Lands but will be replaced by almost-chart-topper Sabrina Carpenter, who’s enjoying the coveted position of having not one, but two songs of the summer. Sturgill Simpson and The Killers also headline the festival that runs from August 9 to August 11. “I made a commitment that i can no longer keep, and that bums me out knowing how excited folks were,” Tyler wrote on Twitter. “That is not sexy at all. please please forgive me or call me names when you see me in person. love.”
