US pop star, Lauryn Hill has cancelled another concert days after failing to show up in Nigeria for a convert on May 1, 2015.
This time, she cancelled the concert in Israel three days before she was due to perform, saying she had tried unsuccessfully to perform in the Palestinian territories as well.
In a recent Facebook post, Lauryn, who was scheduled to perform on May 7, 2015 near Tel Aviv, faced a social media campaign by activists who urged her to boycott Isreal over its occupation of Palestinian land.
According to LAuryn Hill, ‘I’ve wanted very much to bring our live performance to this part of the world, but also to be a presence supporting justice and peace,’ she wrote on her website before continuting: ‘It is very important to me that my presence or message not be misconstrued, or a source of alienation to either my Israeli or my Palestinian fans.’
