FKA Twigs, the avant-garde pop visionary who seems to channel her music straight from some glitter-dusted corner of the cosmos, has hit a snag in her quest to bring the Eusexua tour to North America. You’d think a talent this otherworldly could just beam herself across borders, but alas, even intergalactic pop stars need the right paperwork. Word dropped this week via Variety that Twigs’ production team fumbled the visa applications, leaving fans in Chicago, Toronto, and New York staring at their calendars with a mix of disbelief and despair.
Let’s rewind for a second. Twigs isn’t just any artist—she’s the kind of performer who turns stages into portals, blending hypnotic beats with visuals that feel like a fever dream you don’t want to wake up from. The Eusexua tour was supposed to be her latest triumph, a North American victory lap for an artist who’s spent years bending pop into shapes we didn’t know it could take. But instead of soundchecks and setlists, she’s dealing with the kind of bureaucratic mess that could make even the chillest among us lose it.
Twigs herself broke the news with the grace you’d expect from someone who’s made an art form out of resilience. “I’m completely devastated, to be honest with you,” she shared on TikTok, her words practically dripping with the weight of dashed hopes. You can almost picture her, surrounded by a fortress of forms, wondering how a tour this electric could get grounded by something as mundane as paperwork. It’s not her fault—her team’s the one that dropped the ball—but she’s the one carrying the emotional fallout, apologizing to fans like she’s personally let them down.
The affected dates? Chicago, Toronto, and New York—three cities that were ready to lose themselves in Twigs’ singular magic. No word yet on when the new dates will drop, but she’s promised to reschedule, and updates are on the way. So, Twigs faithful, don’t toss those tickets just yet. Keep your eyes peeled, your notifications on, and maybe double-check your own visa status while you’re at it—just in case.
It’s a bummer, no question, but there’s a silver lining here. This delay only amps up the anticipation for what’s to come. Because let’s be real: we’re all dying to see Twigs live for a reason. Her music pushes boundaries until they snap, her performances are pure alchemy, and she has this knack for making every show feel like you’re part of something rare and revelatory. Visa issues might slow her down, but they’re not stopping her. The Eusexua tour will go on, and when it does, it’ll be worth every second of the wait. Hang tight—Twigs is coming, paperwork be damned.
