Usher BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

Usher made major headlines this week after abruptly canceling the entire Australian leg of his Past Present Future tour. The highly anticipated run, which would have marked his first solo headlining tour in Australia since 2011, was set for twelve sold-out dates across Sydney and Melbourne this November and December. Thousands of tickets had already been snatched up after Usher announced and then quickly expanded the tour due to overwhelming demand. According to Ticketek and Live Nation, all shows have been officially pulled with automatic refunds going to fans. Strikingly, no official reason has been provided for the cancellation, and as of now Usher himself has not commented publicly on social media or through any press statement. CelebrityAccess and Billboard Hip-Hop both confirmed this development, noting that fans are left disappointed and speculating about the cause.

On the business front, Usher is still firmly in the spotlight thanks to a new collaboration with New Era and Major League Baseball. Just this week, Hypebeast covered the launch of the Usher x MLB x New Era All-Star Capsule collection, a limited-edition drop for the 2025 MLB All-Star Game. The collection celebrates Usher’s Atlanta roots with Atlanta Braves caps and a satin varsity jacket, each emblazoned with a “Peace Up, A-Town Down” graphic—a nod to Usher’s iconic gesture and Atlanta’s enduring influence in culture and sports. The collab is already live on the New Era webstore, generating significant buzz among fans and sneakerheads alike.

While Usher’s social feeds have been quiet regarding the Australian tour news, his Instagram activity continues to highlight his Past Present Future European dates slated for spring 2025, including multiple nights at London’s O2 Arena, Paris’s Accor Arena, and Amsterdam’s Ziggo Dome. Promotional reels and posts are pushing ticket sales for these shows, which for now appear to be moving forward as planned. No official statements have addressed the status of any further U.S. or international shows beyond these European dates, and there is no indication of additional Las Vegas residencies or surprise appearances at this time.

In summary, the headline dominating Usher’s world right now is the sudden cancellation of his entire Australian tour, with unanswered questions fueling media chatter. At the same time, his brand collaborations and upcoming European shows keep him front and center in both music and lifestyle conversations.
