“Unfortunately, the Event Organizer has had to cancel your event,” reads a notice on the Ticketmaster website.
DeGeneres was due to appear at the Music Hall at Fair Park in Dallas on Wednesday, July 10. Ticketmaster says that fans who purchased tickets for the event don’t need to do anything, and a refund would be issued to the original method of payment.
Ticketmaster’s website also notes that the July 23 stop at S. Mark Taper Auditorium in Seattle, WA, and the Chicago Theatre appearance on August 11 are also canceled. The Seattle date for July 22 and Chicago date for August 8 and 10 are still available per Ticketmaster’s website.
Deadline has reached out to Live Nation for comment.
DeGeneres is next scheduled to perform her stand-up on July 8 at Denver, Colorado’s Paramount Theatre.
The former daytime talk show host most recently performed for a third night in a row on Tuesday, July 2, at Santa Rosa, California’s Luther Burbank Center for the Arts.
During her set, DeGeneres touches on the controversy around her daytime talk show.
“Let me catch you up on what’s been going on with me since you last saw me. I got chickens,” she says, according to SFGate. “Oh yeah, and I got kicked out of show business for being mean.”
DeGeneres is referring to allegations she had created a toxic work environment on her show.
“I used to say, ‘I don’t care what people say about me.’ Now I realize I said that during the height of my popularity,” DeGeneres says on her comedy show.
Later on, she says, “I am many things, but I am not mean.”
DeGeneres is going to return to Netflix with a new hour-long comedy special later this year, which she says will be her last one.
