Coachella 2022: Kanye West pulls out of festival, report says (OCRegister)

The rapper was expected to headline the final day of the festival, which happens April 15-17 and April 22-24 at the Empire Polo Club in Indio. As of 9:30 a.m. ...

Scott was originally booked to headline Coachella in 2020 and was expected to return in 2022 before the Astroworld tragedy. He headlined the festival in 2011. Ye perceived Eilish’s actions as a diss of Scott, who is facing lawsuits after multiple people were injured in the crowd and 10 died at his Astroworld festival in Houston last year. At the time Ye backed out of Coachella, it had almost 50,000 signatures. Ye also posted that he was bringing Scott to Coachella with him. Noah had called out the rapper over his continued harassment of ex-wife Kim Kardashian, with whom he shares four children.

The rock band was supposed to reunite again at the polo fields in 2020 before the pandemic hit. Lil Nas X just gave a memorable performance at the Grammys and appeared at Coachella’s sister event the Stagecoach Country Music Festival in 2019 as “Old Town Road” was everywhere. Lil Nas X was originally on the lineup for Coachella and Stagecoach in 2020, but dropped off when the 2022 lineups came out. He also has worked with Coachella promoter Goldenvoice on his own festival, the Camp Flog Gnaw Carnival. They’ve got a Coachella history, so the connections are there. The easiest move would be to slip the reunion of Axwell, Steve Angello and Sebastian Ingrosso into the vacancy left by West. However, without someone new replacing West the fest’s star power may dim.

Coachella (along with other brand names that are still working with him) should be ashamed of themselves and should not be giving him any more of a platform.” Trav didn’t have any idea of what was happening when he was on stage and was very hurt by what happened, and yes Trav will be with me at Coachella but now I need Billie to apologize before I perform.” Just one week ahead of his headling set at Coachella, Kanye West has reportedly pulled out from the event entirely.

The Weeknd, Red Hot Chili Peppers: Who could replace Kanye ... (The Desert Sun)

Page Six reported Monday that “rumors in the music business are swirling that The Weeknd may replace Kanye as the headliner."

The tour will feature rap duo Run The Jewels, who are slated to perform at Coachella on April 17 and 24 — the same days that a potential replacement for Ye would need to fill in. The group has a deep history with the festival. The Weeknd, who has performed Coachella multiple times, most recently as a headliner in 2018, could be the superstar who ultimately saves the day for the festival’s organizers. But with less than two weeks left before the festival starts, there's an obvious question: Who will step in to replace him? Rage Against the Machine, the well-known pop-metal band set to reunite this year after an extended hiatus, was initially scheduled to perform at this year’s festival, after the band was listed as a headliner in the 2020 concert that was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Ye, a certified superstar who has won 24 Grammy awards (including the two he won Sunday night), leaves a massive hole in the lineup, which the Chicago rapper was scheduled to headline with Sunday performances April 17 and 24.
