# Usher and Chris Brown R&B Tour developments > Live situation record from CLSTR: https://clstr.news/situations/usher-and-chris-brown-rb-tour-developments > Updated: 2026-10-12T12:48:00.000Z. Sources: 14. Developments: 3. The R&B Tour featuring Usher and Chris Brown has faced staffing changes and performance cancellations. Initially, reports emerged that several former staff members of Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs had joined Usher’s tour team, including Kristina Khorram, who previously served as Combs’ chief of staff. Following these staffing developments, multiple tour dates in cities including Baltimore, Cincinnati, Columbia, and Indianapolis were canceled. Venue statements and communications to ticket holders attributed the cancellations to the ‘health and well-being of the touring party and crew,’ noting the adjustments were necessary to allow the tour to continue ‘safely and sustainably.’ While tour promoters stated the decision was made to ‘prioritize the health and well-being of the touring party and crew’ following a series of sold-out stadium shows, the cancellations coincide with Chris Brown’s upcoming sentencing in London on October 26. Brown previously pleaded guilty to affray related to a 2023 incident at a London nightclub and faces a potential prison sentence of up to three years. Organizers have not officially linked the tour changes to his legal issues. Ticketmaster is processing automatic refunds to original payment methods, expected within 14 to 21 days. No replacement dates have been announced for the canceled cities. The tour, produced by Live Nation, is scheduled to continue with remaining dates in cities such as Atlanta, Los Angeles, New Orleans, Houston, and Miami through December. ## Timeline ### 2026-10-12: Chris Brown and Usher cancel four upcoming tour dates Chris Brown and Usher have canceled four October tour dates in Baltimore, Cincinnati, Columbia, and Indianapolis, citing the health and well-being of the crew following an extensive run of shows. 4 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/chris-brown-and-usher-cancel-four-upcoming-tour-dates ### 2026-10-10: Usher and Chris Brown cancel multiple R&B Tour dates Usher and Chris Brown have canceled R&B Tour dates in Baltimore, Cincinnati, Columbia, and Indianapolis, citing the health and well-being of the touring crew. 4 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/usher-and-chris-brown-cancel-multiple-rb-tour-dates ### 2026-09-23: Usher hires former Sean Combs staff for R&B Tour Former staff of Sean Combs, including his ex-chief of staff Kristina Khorram, have joined Usher’s R&B Tour team following Combs' recent legal convictions. 8 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/usher-hires-former-sean-combs-staff-for-rb-tour --- Cite as: Usher and Chris Brown R&B Tour developments.
