Elle King Postpones Texas Performance Following Drunk Grand Ole Opry Scandal

Elle King ’s tour schedule got a major shakeup following her recent drunk performance at the Grand Ole Opry.

The musician’s upcoming Friday, January 26, show at Billy Bob’s Texas has been pushed back eight months, without any explanation. The venue announced the schedule change via social media on Wednesday, January 24, confirming, “Original event tickets will be accepted for the new date.”

Billy Bob’s Texas told concertgoers that “refunds are available at the point of purchase” noting that the event is now set for Saturday, September 21. “Thank you for your understanding!” the message concluded.

King, 34, has not publicly commented on the concert change. Many fans speculated in the comments section that King’s postponement is a result of her controversial omission of being “f–king hammered” while performing at the Grand Ole Opry earlier this month as part of a Dolly Parton tribute event.
