Summer is officially over, and we always close the summer with a bang….if you planned to go down the Parkway, well you better make other plans because Jay-Z’s, Made in America music festival, which was set to take place over Labor Day weekend in Philadelphia with Lizzo and SZA as headliners, has been canceled due to “severe circumstances outside of production control.”
Organizers recently announced the cancellation, saying in a statement–posted to social media, “This decision has been difficult and has not been made lightly nor without immense deliberation. Made in America, it has a legacy of delivering exceptional experiences for music fans and concertgoers, and it is our commitment to always deliver a top-tier festival experience. We look forward to returning to Benjamin Franklin Parkway and the great city of Philadelphia in 2024.” The statement added that all ticket holders would be refunded. Sorry!!!
If you are interested in casting calls, acting, etc., Tyler Perry has begun filming the first movie of his deal with Amazon Studios. The billionaire filmmaker has been working with Netflix for his most recent films but will now create for Amazon Studios in a multi-picture deal.
