President Donald Trump’s 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 president’s 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. “We’re 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. We’re all gonna come together and be teenagers for the night.”

It’s unclear whether the concert will be rescheduled. The Independent has requested comment from Freedom 250 organizers.

5. We lived in the area for 8 years during my husband's final Air Force assignment.

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

3. My god, Trump is delusional

“I am thinking about bringing the Number One Attraction anywhere in the World, the man who gets much larger audiences than Elvis in his prime, and he does so without a guitar, the man who loves our Country more than anyone else, and the man who some say is the Greatest President in History,” Trump said.

"Some say" usually refers to the voices in his head.

6. "Trump Ass-Lick Show Gets Put On ICE"

That’s a more fitting headline.
