Morrissey Cancels Tour

Michael Gallucci — Sat, 16 Mar 2013 12:06:59 +0000

After battling health issues for most of 2013, Morrissey has canceled the remaining dates on his North American tour. We were wondering when he'd get around to doing this. Dates have been postponed, rescheduled and canceled since January, when the singer ended up in the hospital. He's since been diagnosed with a bleeding ulcer, Barrett's esophagus and, most recently, double pneumonia.

Whose side are you on? In one corner, you have Morrissey, the staunch vegetarian who bowed out of his scheduled performance on last night's (Feb. 26) episode of 'Jimmy Kimmel Live' because he refused to appear on the same show as certain other guests. The guests? The cast of the A&E reality show ‘Duck Dynasty,' which documents a Louisiana family that owns a business making duck decoys for hunters.

Yesterday (Feb. 26), we learned Morrissey had canceled his spot on ABC's 'Jimmy Kimmel Live' because the presence of the cast of the A&E reality show 'Duck Dynasty' conflicted with his vegetarian and animal-rights views.

Fresh off his apparent veggie victory over the Staples Center, which will reportedly go totally meatless for his March 1 show, Morrissey has cancelled tonight's (Feb. 26) scheduled appearance on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live.' The reason: The stars of the A&E reality series 'Duck Dynasty' are also slated to appear, and if Moz won't play a giant arena where burgers and wings are on the menu, E! News reports, the vocal vegetarian won't share a studio stage with a family that made its fortune selling supplies to duck hunters.

Morrissey is beefing over beef with the Staples Center, and a day after the Los Angeles venue issued a press release saying it would not go totally vegetarian for the singer's March 1 show -- an assertion that ran contrary to reports earlier in the week -- Moz has fired back, insisting the home of the Lakers will, indeed, be completely meatless.

Morrissey has more pull than Paul McCartney, at least when it comes to getting others to adhere to his meat-free lifestyle. The singer, who has been canceling shows due to a bleeding ulcer and Barrett's esophagus, which is a chronic throat condition, has managed to get the food vendors at the Staples Center in Los Angeles to be 100 percent meat-free at his March 1 show.

Morrissey has returned to the States to finish up last year's postponed North American tour, and last night (Jan. 8), he warmed up for the trek in the least low-key way possible -- with a performance on the 'Late Show With David Letterman.' Is it just that we haven't had our morning coffee yet, or was his singing of 'Action Is My Middle Name' just ever-so-slightly flat in parts?
