- Charli XCX canceled her Wednesday show at Desert Diamond Arena in Glendale, Arizona — her last scheduled date before Friday's tour finale.
- Charli XCX said on social media she had been "fighting sickness throughout this run of shows" and had "completely lost my voice," making a Wednesday performance impossible.
- Charli XCX's team worked to find a replacement Arizona date but were unable to secure one, prompting automatic Ticketmaster refunds while other buyers must seek refunds at their point of purchase.
- Charli XCX's two LA Kia Forum shows over the weekend featured surprise guest Chappell Roan for a "Boom Clap" duet — the first time she's performed the 2014 track live on this tour — followed by PinkPantheress joining her for "Stateside."
- Charli XCX will close the North American leg of her Music, Fashion, Film tour Friday at Las Vegas's MGM Grand Garden Arena, after which she said she's "resting."
Why it matters: Fans who arranged travel and tickets around the Glendale show lose out with no rescheduled date offered, while Charli's stated priority of "resting ahead of the final show in vegas" turns Friday's MGM Grand Garden closer into the single make-or-break test of whether her voice recovers in time.
