“However, the National Weather Service has now issued a High Wind Warning, including dangerous 30-35 mph sustained winds with gusts potentially more than 60 mph.”

The stellar lineup also included Usher, Mary J. Blige, Janet Jackson, Alicia Keys, Ja Rule, Gwen Stefani, and the Backstreet Boys.
Usher shared on Saturday that he was just as “disappointed” as his fans about the cancellation.
“Mannn…I’m just as disappointed as you are,” he tweeted. “We were getting ready to turn up and celebrate today.”
However, the “Yeah!” singer said he had to “follow the orders of city officials and the National Weather Service for everyone’s protection.”
The Super Bowl performer added that he is standing “strong” in his belief that “everything happens for a reason.”
“I’m sorry we won’t get to see each other today, but know that I am always working on something to express my heartfelt gratitude for each and every one of you who continue to support me,” he said. “I’ll see you soon.”
