Donald Glover Reveals Stroke and Heart Surgery Led to 2024 Childish Gambino Tour Cancellation
Donald Glover disclosed that a stroke and two heart surgeries forced him to cancel his 2024 Childish Gambino tour to focus on recovery.
- On Nov. 22 at Camp Flog Gnaw in Los Angeles, Donald Glover revealed he canceled the rest of his 2024 New World tour after suffering a stroke, having first postponed North American dates to focus on his health.
- Following worsening symptoms, doctors in Houston told Donald Glover `You had a stroke` after he experienced a severe headache post-Louisiana show and underwent two surgeries, Glover said.
- On stage he added, `Everybody has two lives, and the second life starts when you realize you have one,` and joked `still copying Jamie Foxx.`
- Medical authorities note that the Cleveland Clinic lists sudden severe headaches, blurry vision and facial weakness as stroke symptoms, while Jamie Foxx's report of a 'bad headache' and 20-day memory loss illustrates stroke severity.
- The New World tour, which launched in August 2024, ended the following month after its final New Orleans stop, and Donald Glover, 42, continues to share a `Community` movie update amid recovery.
