In the wake of negative feedback for her inebriated rendition of a Dolly Parton song at the Grand Ole Opry, Elle King has decided to cancel her upcoming concert in Texas. The 34-year-old singer, daughter of actor Rob Schneider, had openly admitted to being “hammered” during Dolly Parton’s 78th birthday celebration, leaving fans and attendees shocked by her slurred speech and mispronounced lyrics.

Originally scheduled to perform at Billy Bob’s Texas in Fort Worth this Friday, Elle King has abruptly canceled the show and rescheduled it for a later date in the year. The announcement came without a stated reason for the sudden change.
Billy Bob’s Texas informed the public of the rescheduling, stating, “The Elle King event, initially set for Friday, January 26th, has been rescheduled for Saturday, September 21st, at 10 PM. Tickets for the original date will be honored for the rescheduled performance, with refunds available at the point of purchase. We appreciate your understanding.”
Elle King Remains Silent on Concert Postponement
Despite the rescheduling, Elle King has yet to provide an official statement regarding the reasons behind the change in dates. This comes in the aftermath of her controversial performance at the Grand Ole Opry, where she openly acknowledged her inebriation and made unconventional comments to the audience.
Concerns Arise Amid Elle King’s Past Struggles
Given Elle King’s history of substance misuse, some fans express concern about her well-being, overshadowing the criticism she received for her intoxicated performance. In 2020, the country music artist revealed her struggles with alcohol and drugs, attributing them to her difficult marriage. However, she claimed to have sought treatment and achieved sobriety.
Elle King’s recent performance on “New Year’s Eve Live: Nashville’s Big Bash” also raised eyebrows, as she appeared visibly intoxicated once again. Despite her hit songs like “Ex’s and Oh’s” and “Drunk (And I Don’t Wanna Go Home),” Elle King has yet to address the recent events, leaving fans and critics alike awaiting a response.
