We’ve got some sad news for Childish Gambino fans who were looking forward to catching him at the mtvU Woodie Awards which tapes tonight: The rapper (a.k.a. Donald Glover) has been forced to cancel his performance due to an injury.
.
That’s right, it appears is if Glover fractured his foot during a performance at a show over the weekend. “It is with great disappointment that we announce that Childish Gambino will be unable to perform at this year’s mtvU Woodie Awards after suffering a severely fractured foot over the weekend at a show in Tampa, Florida,” he said in a statement to MTV News.
.
The childish Gambino also had to reschedule the rest of his tour dates, pushing them back until this summer in order to give himself time to recover. Luckily Fun., A$AP Rocky, Chiddy Bang, Machine Gun Kelly and more will be present at the awards show which takes place in Austin, Texas, and will air on Sunday night.
