Shannon Sharpe Postpones Nightcap Tour Until 2026 Amid Sexual Assault Allegations
The tour, which was expected to bring the duo's popular podcast Nightcap to live audiences across the country, has now been pushed back to 2026.
'We've decided to postpone the Nightcap tour,' Sharpe said during a recent episode of the podcast.
'We look forward to seeing you guys in the summer of 2026. It's going to be even bigger, even better. But Ocho and I have come to the conclusion that this is the best thing as of right now, was to postpone the tour. We look forward to seeing each and every one of you in 2026.'
The announcement comes roughly a month after Sharpe was hit with a $50 million lawsuit from an OnlyFans model who alleges the Hall of Famer sexually assaulted and threatened her during their relationship.
Though the case remains ongoing, Sharpe has denied all allegations and maintains his innocence. His legal team has acknowledged that they offered 'at least $10 million' in an effort to settle the suit, but emphasized that the offer was not an admission of guilt.
While no direct connection has been made between the lawsuit and the tour's postponement, the timing has raised public speculation. Nonetheless, Sharpe and Johnson remain committed to reconnecting with fans in 2026, promising an even more dynamic live experience.

Drake Revisits Sentimental City Where 7-Year-Old Son Adonis Was Conceived
While performing in Amsterdam on Wednesday night (July 30), Drake hit pause on the show to reflect on his connection to the city. In a fan-recorded video, the 'What Did I Miss?' icon revealed that Amsterdam is where he and artist Sophie Brussaux conceived their now 7-year-old son, Adonis. 'I was saying backstage, I was saying that this is the place. A very special place in my heart. Because this is where my son was conceived,' Drizzy told the crowd. 'So this is a big show for me, you know? I hold Amsterdam very dear to my heart.' He added, 'There would be no Adonis if there wasn't an Amsterdam, so shoutout to y'all.' Drake has let fans into his fatherhood journey over the years, sharing many heartwarming moments. Last November, he shared a handwritten letter from Adonis via Instagram Stories that read, 'Thank you for giving me such a good life and a good family. I love you dad,' signed, 'Adonis to Dad.' When Adonis turned seven last October, Drake went all out with a SpongeBob SquarePants-themed birthday bash. The proud dad posted two photos from the celebration, featuring him and Adonis posing in front of a Bikini Bottom backdrop, captioned 'Big Don.' The Grammy-winner also gave us a glimpse of his Father's Day last year, with sweet pics with Adonis and his own father, Dennis Graham. In one photo, the trio rocked cowboy hats, and in another, showed off their smiles. 'Three generations Happy Fathers Day to the ones guiding their daughters and sons,' Drake wrote at the time. Take a look at Drake reminiscing in Amsterdam above.
