Update: Iggy Azalea cancels her 'Great Escape' tour after postponing it

Update, May 29, 2015: After initially postponing her arena tour, Iggy Azalea has decided to call it off altogether. Spin reports that ticketholders received a message stating that the shows this year are off but that the rapper would return next year with a new record and tour. That means no show on October 25 at American Airlines Center. Refunds are reportedly available at point of purchase.

Original post: Rapper Iggy Azalea is rescheduling her North American tour, which was slated to begin April 14. 

A rep from the American Airlines Center confirms the May 22 Dallas show has now been pushed back to Oct. 25. In a statement, Iggy-Ig's camp says the extra time will "accommodate for creative team availability and tour productions."

"It's important to Iggy that she delivers the show she envisaged to share with her fans and that requites more time in development," the statement reads.
