President Donald Trumps Freedom 250 has canceled a concert performance by Ice Ice Baby rapper Vanilla Ice two hours before he was set to take the stage. Freedom 250, the presidents public-private organization tasked with throwing celebrations for the 250th anniversary of American independence, announced after 5 p.m. ET Friday that due to inclement weather the Great American State Fair, where Vanilla Ice was set to perform, will be closed for the rest of the day.
The safety of our guests, staff, and partners remains our top priority. We are actively monitoring conditions and will provide updates as they become available, Freedom 250 wrote on X. The organization added that the fair will reopen Saturday at 10 a.m.
Vanilla Ice, whose real name is Rob Van Winkle, called the event a once in a lifetime opportunity in an Instagram post hours earlier. Were about to have a great party tonight, the rapper said in a video on the National Mall, where he was set to perform on a massive stage. This is gonna be epic. In the caption, he wrote: Once in a lifetime, happy birthday America. Put your dance shoes on. Were all gonna come together and be teenagers for the night.
Its unclear whether the concert will be rescheduled. The Independent has requested comment from Freedom 250 organizers.

(30,219 posts)All summer long, the temperature and humidity are typically both in the 90s and is it absolutely miserable to be outside.

But that was the 1980's, 1990's.

All the sweet white icing flowing down
Someone left the cake out in the sun
I don't think that he can take it
'Cause it took so long to half-bake it
And he'll never have that recipe again, oh no

(54,084 posts)Of course like everything else, the humility is fake. It is all performance.

(21,073 posts)Even his loyal cult members can't stand to listen to his word-salad bullshit anymore. They get up and walk out after 30 minutes of his ranting and raving now.

(54,084 posts)Even if they still support him, they don't really want to listen to him anymore. The "magic" is gone.

Your country deserves it. Despite mistakes, you've done a lot for the world, and are a success. You deserve a party.
