To a celebrity having a gig is one of the best things in their career. Being part of the show be it in a school launch, a musical concert or even a simple advertisement can bring the celebrity lots of cash and exposure.

As much as being part of a gig is a great achievement it also comes with its share of dissapointments.

Some sponsors and organizers can decide to ditch you at the very last moment without bothering to ask how prepared you were for the event.

Here are some celebrities who had their gigs cancelled last minute for various reasons. Let's begin.

1) Sean Andrew

5) Koffi Olomide

Koffi Olomide is a Congolese dancer and Rhumba star.

He once got his show cancelled after he was spotted in a viral video assaulting one of his female dancers back in a Kenyan airport.

The Rhumba star musician's show in Zambia got cancelled due to his gross misconduct towards women.
