Fans have been eagerly waiting for Lady Gaga to hit the stages for her Chromatica Ball tour – but it looks like they may have to wait a little longer.
The tour is in support of her Chromatica album, which dropped last year. It was initially scheduled to kick off in the summer of 2020. However, the dates were pushed back to 2021 because of the ongoing pandemic.
In a new message, Gaga announced that the tour will once again be pushed back another year.
“While some parts of the world are moving quickly to open up, others are not yet ready. So until we can confirm all global dates, we have to postpone The Chromatica Ball shows to the summer of 2022,” she wrote in a message, per Variety.
As of the writing of this article, no new dates have been announced – all of her 2021 tour dates on Ticketmaster have been listed as “postponed.”
Gaga has been busy with a bunch of other projects since dropping her album – she recently returned from Italy where she had finished filming her upcoming movie with Adam Driver, House of Gucci. She also made a cameo at the Friends reunion special.
Friends: The Reunion director, Ben Winston, also revealed that Gaga “said yes in a heartbeat” to appearing on the special.
“I told Lisa that I wanted a music performance and didn’t want it to be the theme song. I asked if she’d consider singing ‘Smelly Cat’ and she thought it would be fun but said she never really played guitar,” Ben told The Hollywood Reporter. “We gave her a guitar to practice that morning.”
He then “gave her a list of three or four names of people I thought would be really great to duet with, but Gaga was, without question, my number one. And she loved the idea of Gaga.”
“Gaga — and I don’t think she’d mind me saying — has some Phoebe spirit in her,” Ben went on. “There is synergy between Lisa Kudrow and Lady Gaga in some way.”
“She was like, ‘I would love to perform in Central Perk with Lisa Kudrow,’” he added.
