Lovers & Friends Fest Blown Away in Vegas!!! Janet, Usher, Mary & Alicia's Show Canceled by Weather
Even Janet Jackson, Mary J. Blige, Usher, Alicia Keys, Snoop Dogg, and Lil Wayne's combined star power isn't enough to outshine Mother Nature -- who just forced Lovers & Friends Festival organizers to pull the plug ... at the last minute!
The shocking announcement came late Friday night, less than 24 hours before the all-day, outdoor festival was supposed to begin at the Las Vegas Festival Grounds. Event organizers said they were expecting a windy day and prepared for it, but then the National Weather Service issued a High Wind Warning.
With the expectation of 30-35 mph sustained winds and wind gusts over 60 mph ... they decided to cancel the highly-anticipated concert, calling it the "safest decision for our fans, artists and staff."
