After immense pressure from BDS-holes following the announcement of a March 1st concert in Tel Aviv, Australian singer Natalie Imbruglia has seemingly cancelled her gig.
I say seemingly because although she has made no announcement, it has been removed from a list of upcoming concerts on her website.
As well as elsewhere.
And BDS-holes are proclaiming victory.
While I call on Natalie or her team to explain the cancellation before accepting as fact this was BDS-initiated, there is no doubt she came under immense pressure – as do all artists intending to perform here.
Although this is disappointing, Israel is primed for many high-profile acts this year, including:
Robbie Williams – September 16
So there’s that.
Update: The official statement from the promoter’s PR firm is that the cancellation is because of logistical problems and Imbruglia said she’s sorry to disappoint her fans (hat tip: David Brinn).
Update: According to Walla, it was poor ticket sales. And Imbruglia apologized for the cancellation and promised to perform here in future.
