Cornell University Cancels Kehlani’s Performance Over Singer’s Pro-Palestine Stance


Kehlani's upcoming Cornell University show has been canceled by the school due to the singer's pro-Palestine stance.

According to The New York Times, Cornell president Michael I. Kotlikoff emailed students and faculty on Wednesday (April 23) to make his decision to cancel Kehlani’s performance official. Kotlikoff cited that “the selection of Kehlani as this year’s headliner has injected division and discord” into Slope Day. On the music side, Kehlani has laid low this year following a busy 2024, which saw the release of their Crash album, as well as the expanded version of her 2019 project, While We Wait 2.
