The Toronto concert curse lives on.

Lil Wayne was set to play at Toronto’s Budweiser Stage tonight (Aug. 11) for his Tha Carter VI tour before the show was unexpectedly postponed.


At around 8 p.m., almost two hours after the doors opened and an hour before the rapper was set to take the stage, Budweiser Stage announced that the show would no longer be taking place in a message displayed onscreen at the venue and posted on its Instagram story.

“Due to unforeseen illness, Wayne’s Toronto show tonight will be postponed," the statement reads.

"As his fans know, he loves putting on nothing short of the best performances for those who come out, and he was so excited for this one. Please stay tuned for the new date coming soon.”

A new date has not yet been confirmed. The tour is scheduled to continue on Aug. 16 in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio.

Angine de Poitrine-Inspired Halloween Costume Pulled from Shelves

The costumes resembling the viral Quebec math rock band's likeness have been pulled from sale in physical stores and online after appearing on Party Expert as "Polka Dot Attack" retailing for $105 CAD.

Angine de Poitrine is sure to be a hot Halloween costume this year, but unlicensed costumes have been pulled from the shelves at one Halloween store.

Costume and party supplies retailer Party Expert has pulled a pair of Halloween costumes from its website featuring the likeness of both members, after listing their polka-dotted jumpsuits and signature masks as individual pieces under the prefix "Polka Dot Attack" last week.
