Boston Celtics’ Jayson Tatum issued an apology to singer Janet Jackson and her fans after a tweet he made about her concert caused it to be postponed. Tatum had tweeted his excitement for Jackson’s concert, which was scheduled to take place on June 12, but also mentioned that it was unfortunate that it fell on the same day as Game 6 of the NBA playoffs. Tatum’s tweet received backlash from some fans who accused him of prioritizing the game over the concert. The concert was ultimately postponed to June 16, and Tatum issued an apology, stating that he was not aware of the impact his tweet would have and that he was a big fan of Jackson’s music. He also clarified that he had already purchased tickets to the rescheduled concert.
