Production delays were to blame for the rescheduling. The news comes after the singer scrapped her planned performance at the GRAMMY Awards on Monday after being diagnosed with bronchitis less than an hour before the start of the awards show.
Rapper Travis Scott is scheduled to open for Rihanna on the North American dates of the Anti tour, while Big Sean and The Weeknd will join for the European dates to follow.
