The diva's career already seems compromised. Canadian singer La Zarra, who represented the France at Eurovision on May 13, has been forced to postpone several dates of her concert tour scheduled to last until January 2024. If the production invokes "technical reasons", these postponements would actually be related to the lack of reservations in theaters, reports Le Parisien.
For the time being, only two dates have been postponed. The interpreter of Tu t'en iras was to perform on June 2 and 8 at the Espace Julien in Marseille and the Splendid in Lille. Both evenings were moved to December. A third date scheduled for June 15 Salle Pleyel does not seem threatened. Still according to Le Parisien, the Parisian concert hall would have sold only two-thirds of the tickets for the evening.
Descent into hell
The singer would show a serious loss of speed since her passage to Eurovision. In addition to its ranking in 16th place on the podium (out of a total of 37 participants), La Zarra sparked widespread outrage by giving a live middle finger to the television cameras. A gesture she later minimized, explaining that in Canada, it was a way to express her "disappointment". Later, the singer posted an Instagram story in which she invited "all those who criticize [her]" to "go and get ... with a cucumber." To these mood movements are added two last-minute cancellations to Eurovision pre-shows for "personal reasons".

The pill does not pass on the side of the public, and even less on the side of the programmers. The Greenland green festival, to be held on July 23 at Lake Palau-del-Vidre, near Perpignan, has already announced that the singer will not come for "reasons beyond [their] control". In reality, this cancellation would be directly related to the outrageous attitude of the singer during the final of Eurovision. His latest hit, Obviously, has also been deprogrammed from most national radio playlists, according to Le Parisien. Especially those of France Bleu - which was nevertheless one of the partners of Eurovision. The station no longer broadcasts it on its antennas since the final of the contest.
If the record company of La Zarra says today that the latter is recording a second album in the studio, the descent into hell could be prolonged for the singer. Other dates may be postponed. To compensate for the haemorrhage, promotions of 30% have been set up to sell tickets for certain dates.
