Kanye West postpones shows after wife Kim Kardashian robbed; tour to resume in Chicago

CHICAGO _ Kanye West is scheduled to resume his Saint Pablo tour Friday in Chicago after postponing two concerts in the wake of his wife Kim Kardashian being robbed in Paris.

West, who grew up on the South Side, has rescheduled this week's shows in Philadelphia and Detroit for next month, concert promoter Live Nation announced Monday night. West is still set to play the United Center on Friday and the Allstate Arena on Saturday.

Kim Kardashian reported being robbed of millions of dollars of jewelry at gunpoint while she stayed at a private residence in Paris. West cut short his set at The Meadows Music and Arts Festival in New York on Sunday when he heard the news. The couple was spotted together Monday in New York.

West's tour is in support of his album "The Life of Pablo," which dropped in February.
