For, fresh from postponing its US leg, the rapstress has announced a complete overhaul – one that’ll see Future bounced from the bill altogether.

Featuring rocking performances from the likes of Bebe Rexha, Halsey, Shawn Mendes, Rita Ora, and more, the show was easily one of its most star-studded to date.  And, while some headlines were rocked today after Halsey issued a statement indicating…

“I have adored the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show since I was young,” she said. “However, after I filmed the performance, some comments were made regarding the show that I simply cannot ignore.
