In a TikTok video shared on Wednesday, March 26, the "Sticky" musician (whose real name is Tahliah Barnett) revealed that while her Eusexua tour dates have been “absolutely incredible,” she won't be able to perform the scheduled North American dates at this time due to Visa issues.

Twigs, 37, revealed that the process of making these shows happen behind the scenes “has been challenging with production and the more practical side of putting this tour together.”

“Today, I was informed that production did not fill out the correct paperwork in a timely manner for us to have our visas to come to the U.S.A. and perform,” she said in the clip. “By no choice of my own, I will have to pull out of my New York, Chicago and Toronto shows.”

Twigs continued: “For those of you who are wondering why I have to pull out of Toronto because it’s not part of the United States, it’s because of routing and just the complex beast that touring is,” she added. “I don’t take this lightly. I’m completely devastated, to be honest with you. Completely heartbroken. All I want to do is be there with you and bring Eusexua to you.”

"I don't take this lightly. I'm completely devastated, to be honest with you and completely heartbroken. All I want to do is to be there with you and bring Eusexua to you. I've not performed in the U.S.A. since 2019 and it really feels like a home away from home, and this is such a huge blow. And I feel super let down," said the "Cellophane" performer.

Twigs also noted that she was “looking into how and why this happened,” and promised that she would share rescheduled tour dates soon.

In January, twigs dropped her third studio album Eusexua, and one of the songs — titled "Childlike Things" — features North West, who performs a few verses in Japanese.

In an Instagram Reel shared on Thursday, March 20, the "Papi Pacify" artist revealed why Kim Kardashian and Kanye West's daughter was perfect for the track since her label wanted someone who had a "childlike energy."

"It needs someone who has that tenacity, who has that strong point of view that you have when you're 11," twigs recalled.

The vision really came to life when she saw an interview with North.

"She was so confident. It suddenly occurred to me that I would’ve loved to have a friend like North who could speak up for themselves," said twigs.

The Eusexua tour was scheduled to kick off on March 8 with a show in Prague, however that date and one in Berlin was canceled due to “shipping issues,” per Variety.

twigs is currently slated to perform at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in California in April, in addition to a San Francisco date on April 19.
