Fans are wondering whether Mexican singer Peso Pluma’s Oct. 14 show in Tijuana will go on as scheduled after three banners containing threats against his life were discovered.
The attorney general’s office in Baja California is investigating the situation, according to the Los Angeles Times, and one individual allegedly linked to the incident is being held.
Pluma’s star is rising fast. He performed on the MTV Video Music Awards on Tuesday night. The show in question is set for Oct. 14 at Estadio Caliente in Tijuana, a stop on his Doble P Mexico tour.
According to the news site Punto Norte, the banners threaten Pluma not to appear on Oct. 14. If he does the show, the messages warn, “it will be your last.” The banners are signed with the initials of a drug cartel.
It’s unclear if it’s related to the threat, but a few of Pluma’s U.S. dates have been postponed. The Fiserv Forum in Milwaukee posted Tuesday on X, formerly Twitter, that his Sept. 14 date had been postponed “due to unforeseen circumstance.” In addition, a Sept. 15 show at the Rosemont Theatre in Illinois has also been postponed.
