Mick Jagger Cancels Australia Concert, Denies Breaking Up With L'Wren Scott Prior To Her Suicide
Mick Jagger has canceled his upcoming Rolling Stones concert following the death of girlfriend L'Wren Scott.
As breakup rumors regarding the pair swirl, reps for the rocker have confirmed that he and the band will not be moving forward with their Perth, Australia concert, which was set for March 19.
According to a March 18 report by The Guardian, the band was set to launch the Australian leg of their Rolling Stones On Fire tour on Wednesday, but because of Scott's passing, they have opted to reschedule.
As for the rest of the tour, which is scheduled to continue on March 22, 25, 28, and 30, things have not yet been determined. “No further information is available at this time and ticket holders are asked to hold on to their tickets until a further update,” the statement said.
On Monday, March 17, Scott was found dead at her New York City apartment where she reportedly hanged herself. A short time later, the New York Post claimed Scott had told a longtime friend from her native Utah that Jagger "had dumped her."
However, Jagger's people claim otherwise.
"The story in the New York Post re a split between Mick Jagger and L'Wren Scott is 100 percent untrue," a rep for Jagger told Us Weekly on March 18. "There is absolutely no basis in fact to this story. It is a horrible and inaccurate piece of gossip during this very tragic time for Mick."
