Following the announcement of Sinéad's death on Wednesday, Pink paid tribute to the legendary Irish singer by performing Nothing Compares 2 U during the first U.S. date of her Summer Carnival tour show in Cincinnati,
Sunday's Pink concert at Pinnacle Bank Arena has been postponed, arena officials said Saturday.
Ticketmaster said Saturday afternoon in an email to ticketholders that efforts were being made to reschedule the show and tickets will remain good for the rescheduled date.
Pink said in a social media post that upcoming shows in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, Milwaukee and Des Moines, Iowa, were also postponed for "reasons beyond my control."
"I'm so disappointed to share this news, but we are working on rescheduling each of these shows as soon as we can," she said.
The aerobatic pop star last played the arena in 2018, drawing a sold-out crowd of 14,300 to witness her spectacular singing/dancing/flying show. She has since played two Omaha concerts, a 2019 engagement at CHI Health Center and a stadium show at Charles Schwab Field that drew a crowd of more than 35,000 to the sweltering baseball park last August.
It took 10 minutes for Pink to become the arena’s first sold-out show when tickets for her November 2013 concert went on sale that March. That concert also drew more than 14,000 people, a PBA record in its first three months of operations.
Initially signed to LaFace Records as a teenage member of the R&B group Choice, Alecia Beth Moore was a hit out of the box, with her first single “There You Go” hitting the top 10 in 2002 and her debut album “Can’t Take Me Home” going double platinum.
Defying efforts to turn her into a cookie-cutter pop star, Pink took greater artistic control of her career, turning to a more rock-rooted sound and personal lyrics with 2001’s “Missundaztood,” which yielded hits "Get the Party Started,” "Don't Let Me Get Me" and "Just Like a Pill" and launched her into the pop stratosphere.
Pink has now sold more than 60 million albums and 75 million singles worldwide, making her one of the world's best-selling artists.
She’s won three Grammys, two Brit Awards, including the top prize for Outstanding Contribution to Music, a Daytime Emmy and seven MTV Music Awards, including the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award. She was named Woman of the Year by Billboard in 2013.
The Script and KidCutUp were set to open the Sunday show.
