*It just ain’t working. As far as Anita Baker and Babyface touring is concerned. So, since it’s Baker’s tour (she’s the headliner), the diva is booting Mr. Kenny “Babyface” Edmonds from her “Songstress Tour.”

Baker made her decision earlier today. She felt it was the best course of action to take. La Baker says for the past 24 hours, she was forced to put up with violent threats on behalf of Babyface’s fans and felt she needed to cut him loose for her own personal safety.

If you’re wondering what ‘Face’s reaction to being kicked to the curb, here’s his response to TMZ:

“I am saddened by the news that Anita Baker has decided to remove me from “The Songstress Tour.” It’s unfortunate and disheartening to see how things have played out via social media.”

Babyface fans who are upset about him not being on the tour any longer will be allowed to get a refund for their ticket(s).

If you’ve been following the drama, you know the week kicked off in shambles as Anita Baker and Babyface fans engaged in online unpleasantries.

Fans demanded that La Baker instate Edmonds as a co-headliner, but the tour is designed to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Anita’s debut album “The Songstress” … so she wanted to stay on as the project’s headliner on her own.

Here’s more of what we reported earlier about the situation between the two stars:

*Fans of music legend Kenny ‘Babyface’ Edmonds are threatening R&B icon Anita Baker over him not performing one night during her Songstress tour in May.

We reported previously that Baker addressed the matter on June 5, tweeting: “Dear Sir, Live Nation, took Full responsibility. I Went on My Stage, at the appropriate time. Did my job without benefit of full production… I *Did, my Job/Lifelong Profession. Your public statements are false.”

She later posted, “Another, Truth?… My company defended & Prevailed against the lawsuit filed, (Not by Babyface, but by his reps. at the time). Kenny, came to me YEARS ago, in the Spirit of Community & WE put It ALL, behind us. & came Together, in Love, Peace, Music & Community & 4giveness.”

In her recent remarks, Baker said … “Some of his fans, are not accepting of the reality, that he is contracted, as special guest support, on My Tour. Some even want to hurt me… Crazyyyy. Town” she tweeted Monday morning, the Indianapolis Star reports.
