LONDON, June 16 — US rapper Lil Wayne will no longer perform at a British music festival this weekend after he was declined entry into the United Kingdom, organisers have said.
“Lil Wayne has been refused entry to the UK directly by the Home Office in a last minute decision. We are deeply disappointed by this sudden and negative ruling. We have received very minimal notice, and the timing of the decision is of course upsetting for all involved.” Lil Wayne’s performance would have been his first in the UK in 14 years, according to the festival.
Representatives for Lil Wayne, whose real name is Dwayne Carter Jr, could not immediately be reached for comment.
