Marc Mysterio Cancels U.S. Tour Due To T.S.A. 'Sexual Abuse'

(PR) Marc Mysterio has scrapped plans for a US Tour in support of his new hit single 'Shout It Out', due to the T.S.A.'s new screening process as his lawsuit against Brandy is heading to court.

"I am suspending my tour indefinitely, and until such time as the T.S.A. softens their screening procedure(s) to exclude sexually abusive touching." says Canadian Marc Mysterio.

The tour was to have commenced in Los Angeles. "Amidst the various reports of alleged sexual abuse during screenings, and first hand reports from my own friends and fellow djs of being groped in public, I refuse to place myself in such a position – it is inhumane and intolerable and I could not perform up to my abilities if I were to endure such abuse!" Says Marc Mysterio. - more on this story
