The Weeknd has pulled out of Rihanna's Anti Tour, due to "unforeseen changes."

He and rapper Big Sean were scheduled to open for the "Work" singer on her two-month European tour, which kicks off in Amsterdam on June 11 and wraps in Zurich, Switzerland on Aug. 12. But a rep for Rihanna has confirmed that the Weeknd will no longer be joining her.
