Arctic Monkeys forced to cancel Jimmy Kimmel performance after Kanye West interview overruns
Sheffield’s globetrotting sons, Arctic Monkeys were set to cross the pond to appear on Jimmy Kimmel Live as musical guests for last night’s show, with their performance scrapped at last minute.
Alex Turner and co had posted the following message to let fans know they would be playing cuts from their recent album, AM.
Arctic Monkeys will be performing on tonight’s @JimmyKimmelLive on ABC at 11.35pm(PST)/10.35(CST)

However, the original plan was not to be, with fellow billed guest Kanye West overrunning with his interview slot.
Needless to say, Arctic Monkeys fans are not very happy about the whole thing. It is thought, however, that they’ll perform on tonight’s show instead (10 October).
