J-Hope is replacing Doja Cat on the lineup, as the “Woman” singer announced in May that a medical issue with her tonsils requiring surgery will sideline her planned tour with The Weeknd and festival dates this summer. “Hi guys. I wanted you to hear it from me first,” she started the message, with white text over a background. “Unfortunately, I need to have surgery on my tonsils immediately. Although the surgery is simple, the recovery will be slow due to swelling. This means that I will have to cancel my festival this summer and The Weeknd tour. I am so sorry, but I can’t wait to heal and get back making music and creating an experience for you .”
