tbh she should do a free concert for those who have tickets refunded. this is a terribly selfish decision and lbr it won't help her even a tiny bit in her career.

the cancellation will do more harm

[campelo]

Not the 2 hour drive offer, how tone deaf 

 

[TheCheshireCat]

Eh, at-least she was honest.

Tove Lo cancelled my show the night before and rescheduled it 4 months later on a Monday night didn't give a word as to why.

[Patient Zero]

Jimmy Fallon...

[Sheep]

The honestly and transparency is refreshing. 

[May]

i get that it’s a good opportunity for her so I understand her decision BUT ‘u got a refund come see me 2 hours away’ is NOT the way to treat ur fans… pretty scatty of her tbh

[Grizzo]

as if performing on Jimmy Fallon in 2023 helped anyone 

[The7thStranger]

Very unprofessional. Building up a good touring reputation now will always prove to be more lucrative in the long run.

[Sergi91]

Did someone canceled their performance at the Tonight Show? Maybe they called Raye as the last minute.

Isn’t the show popular still? 

[sunbathinganimal]

I don't blame her

 

 

[liquiddiamonds]

Was the show low in attendance? Crazy she would pass up tour dollars for Jimmy Fallon. Is the exposure even worthy in 2023?

[Bimbo]

Girl what is that performance gonna do for your career

[gatito]

girl you're never going mainstream anyway and you'd rather piss off your 3 real fans out there? 

[ImpressMeMuch]

I appreciate the transparency but uh, horrible decision lol

[Johnny Jacobs]

A little context if you care to listen
I find myself in a **** position
The fan that I love sat me down last night
And he told me that it's over, dumb decision

100 people in crowd vs. 100 views on TV

[Assassin]

Not her cancelling a concert for Fallon, not even Kimmel. Fallon is currently the lowest rated late night talk show.

[wulmite]

i dont think performing on TV gives anyone the boost it used to back in the day  but at least she was honest

[Eglė]

Dumb decision miss Raye but we still love a transparent legend

 

[Walk_Away21]

At least she was honest instead of faking some illness. But ya, idk if these late night shows are even important anymore. I guess artists have probably always aspired to play The Tonight Show. But Youtube and Jimmy killed the brand I fear.

no.

[Saint James]

maybe it's the behind the scenes networking that is the real opportunity here, rather than the performance

 

i dont know why else she would do this

[Uncatena]

[ShouldersSideways]

She obviously wants to make it big, but this makes her look desperate (because she is) and it's not going to move the needle on her career at all. If anything, there's going to be backlash that's going to hurt her more than help her.
