NEED TO KNOW
Aubrey O’Day was sad to miss Danity Kane’s reunion show in Los Angeles.
On Wednesday, Dec. 10, O’Day announced she wouldn’t make the show that evening due to a health scare in an expired Instagram Stories post.
“My loves… I am so sorry. I’ve become extremely sick and physically can’t make tonight’s show as I’m in the ER,” O’Day, 41, wrote on the social media platform, according to multiple outlets, including TMZ and Parade.
“I’ve been fighting it all day, spinning around in my head trying to find any way to make this work, but being sick is being sick — it’s completely out of my control,” she added. “My heart is broken because I never want to let you down.”

She concluded, “I know the girls will give you an incredible performance tonight, and I promise I’ll be back with you the second my body lets me.”
Though O’Day couldn’t make the show, Aundrea Fimbres and D. Woods still performed as a duo. The night prior, they performed their first reunion show in San Francisco — and they’re next scheduled to perform on Friday, Dec. 12 in Uncasville, Conn.
Danity Kane announced their Untold Chapter Tour on Instagram in October. However, at the time, it wasn’t clear who from Danity Kane would return. Now, it’s known that Dawn Richard and Shannon Bex are not part of the tour.
“The Untold Chapter Tour isn’t just a concert. It’s a reckoning. It’s the truth behind the story. It’s the reunion that no one thought possible. With setlists reshaped, confessions revealed, and moments that will never happen the same way twice, this tour promises to leave audiences shaken, inspired, and forever changed,” the post read.
“For fans who lived through the rise of Danity Kane and for a new generation discovering their voice — this is history being rewritten in real time,” the post concluded. “If you miss it, you’ll miss more than a show. You’ll miss a revelation.”
The start of the tour comes after O’Day made an appearance in the new Netflix docuseries, Sean Combs: The Reckoning, where she spoke about her time working with the Bad Boy Records founder after she was chosen to join Danity Kane in 2005 on MTV’s reality show Making the Band.
In the docuseries, she claimed she was often singled out by Combs, 56, and he allegedly crossed a line in their working relationship, citing a sexually explicit email. “What happens in real life to anyone else, your boss gets fired. Six months later, I was fired,” O’Day said, adding that she believes she was fired for “not participating sexually” with Combs.
When reached for comment regarding the accusations, Combs’ spokesperson, Juda Engelmayer, told PEOPLE, “we will not be addressing individual allegations made in this Netflix hit piece.”
Engelmayer previously said, “Many of the people featured have longstanding personal grievances, financial motives, or credibility issues that have been documented for years. Several of these stories have already been addressed in court filings, and others were never raised in any legal forum because they’re simply not true. The project was built around a one-sided narrative led by a publicly admitted adversary, and it repeats allegations without context, evidence, or verification.”

In an Instagram Stories post on Thursday, Dec. 11, O’Day reflected on the “intense, overwhelming” past two weeks.
“With the Netflix drop, the world now knowing things that were hard for me to say and everything I’ve [learned] since – plus all the things happening behind the scenes happening in every area of business [right now]. It’s been a very heavy time,” she wrote, alongside a photo of her being carried on stage.
“This picture is the first time I’ve seen myself fully released – and I’m so happy it happened on stage with my Danity Kane sisters, along with my family… you the most loyal audience. I can’t wait to see you next show,” the post concluded.
