Lauryn Hill‘s chronic lateness saw her hit headlines over the weekend after Atlanta concert-goers booed for turning up over 2 hours after the start time of her concert.

When the news hit social media, the story took on a life of its own – so much so that the former Fugees front-woman was forced to make a statement. Therein she promised to make it up to fans, apologised, but oddly blamed her tardiness on her “energy” needing to be right and how it doesn’t always align with show times.

That didn’t wash with many, including Roots drummer Questlove.

A Lauryn Hill fan has taken a direct approach to voicing his anger with the star following her late arrival to an Atlanta concert last night.

As reported, the Fugees star hit the stage more than two hours later than billed and the show was abruptly cut short – much to the displeasure of those in attendance (as well as those who’ve experienced similar at her shows).

No explanation was given and that was reason enough for said supporter to pop off like a firework when Hill attempted to shake hands with folk in the front row.

“Respect is just a minimum.”

Unfortunately, respect was nowhere to be seen at Chicago‘s ‘House of Blues’ last week, when ‘Zion’ singer Lauryn Hill arrived an hour and twenty minutes to her own show at the venue.

How she apologised for her tardiness? Well…she didn’t, going on to slam her audience for complaining about her late arrival.

Then, as if they hadn’t suffered enough, looked on as she asked the venue’s security to boot one of her fans out of the venue for “doing something I don’t like.”

‘Triparto’ vocalist Sia was one of the many Lauryn Hill supporters to arrive at LA‘s Club Nokia to catch the singer live last night, doing so after the release of her Beyonce-led single ‘Pretty Hurts.’

Unfortunately, like the aforementioned many, the ‘Diamonds’ writer enjoyed nothing but an empty stage well after the show was due to begin, prompting her to share the following message with her Twitter audience below.

Lauryn Hill is putting a pause on touring.

The singer made headlines earlier this month when her trademark tardiness struck again and she informed the capacity crowd and critics alike that “y’all lucky I make it.”

Well, now, it appears there’s more context.

For, Hill has announced that she’s postponing the ‘Miseducation of Lauryn Hill 25th Anniversary Tour’ due to health issues.

Nicki Minaj is hot on the promotional trail for her new album and, as reported, Vogue Magazine, was the femcee’s most recent stop.

Beyond posing it up for a cover feature, the Rap royal also became the latest celebrity to play a game of 73 Questions with Vogue.

During the candid feature, Minaj spilled on the recording of her incoming LP ‘Pink Friday 2’ (due December 8), her dreams of collaborating with Lauryn Hill, motherhood, and much more.

Watch after the jump…

Lauryn Hill has had enough!

Despite developing quite the reputation for being extremely tardy to her own shows over the years (or canceling at the last minute), Hill continues to be a touring force thanks to her Diamond-certified debut solo album, 1998’s ‘Miseducation,’ and hits she collected prior to that with Fugees.

In celebration of the timeless LP’s 25th anniversary, Lauryn took to press earlier this year to announce she would be going on a global tour in 2023.

Buzz for the September-launched jaunt quickly went south as reports flooded in the R&B/Hip-Hop diva – when not axing appearances all together – was habitually late for performances, citing health issues as the main reason.

As the negative attention continues to plague the outing, she finally addressed the hoopla in a stinging reprimand to critics.
