Megan Thee Stallion Replaces Tyler, The Creator As Lollapalooza Headliner

Megan Thee Stallion has a new stop as she continues her Hot Girl Summer Tour. The Houston rapper has been named a headliner at the 2024 Lollapalooza Festival in Chicago. The lineup update comes as California rapper Tyler, the Creator was forced to withdraw from the event.

Lollapalooza organizers confirmed the “Cocky Af” rapper’s booking on official event social media channels, as well as a website update.

“Hot girl summer in Chicago. Unfortunately, Tyler, The Creator will not be able to perform this year,” shared the announcement.

The “EARFQUAKE” performer himself updated fans that he would not be able to attend the summer affair. Additionally, the 33-year-old also revealed he would no longer be performing at Outside Lands, set for the Bay area from Aug. 9 through Aug. 11. He was replaced on this lineup by rising pop star Sabrina Carpenter.
