Almost all of the acts scheduled to perform at Donald Trump's Freedom 250 concert series dropped off the lineup shortly after it was announced last month. Milli Vanilli, Young MC, and C+C Music Factory were among the I Love The ‘90s Tour acts the White House booked (via Jeff Epstein) to celebrate America’s semiquincentennial, but Vanilla Ice was the last of the ‘90s artists standing. However, last night his concert was canceled two hours before showtime due to "inclement weather.”

"We're about to have a great party tonight," the rapper said in a video on social media yesterday. "This is gonna be epic." Shortly after, Freedom 250 wrote on X, "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."

Ice's drummer Trent Laugerman posted on his Instagram Story last night, "I hate to announce it but there was thunderstorms rolling through and there might be one more and unfortunately they had to cancel the show. So. Not even really angry just kind of bummed because we were looking forward to it."

Flo Rida was the only other scheduled Freedom 250 artist who did not cancel, and he is still slated for July 2. Also, as a late addition, Lee Greenwood kicked things off on Wednesday (June 25).

The Freedom 250 website says events are rain or shine, unless there is severe weather, but it looked like it just drizzled. Vanilla Ice is scheduled to perform in Tulare, CA tonight, so he won't be back with his brand new invention. Fairgoers can still visit the Lincoln Memorial Peeling Paint Pool.

Check out today’s scene, and the aforementioned posts, below.
