Janet Jackson and Kelly Rowland lead performer reactions as Lovers & Friends ... trends now
Janet Jackson and Kelly Rowland led performer reactions as the Lovers & Friends festival was canceled last-minute on Saturday due to expected 'dangerous weather' in Las Vegas.
Jackson, 57, took to X (formerly Twitter) to express how 'heartbroken' she was and acknowledged that many fans 'traveled far and wide' in order to catch her set.
She also included three self-portraits of herself in full glam makeup and hair, which was seemingly the look she planned to wear on stage Saturday.
'We are heartbroken we won't be able to see you tonight at Lovers & Friends due to the possibility of dangerous winds,' the hitmaker began.
'We know that many of you traveled far and wide to be here. The show would have also marked our last before we shift gears to the summer leg of the tour.
'We trust in God's plan and find light in knowing we'll be together again soon. We love you and are so grateful for you,' Jackson concluded.

Less than 24 hours ahead of the event, organizers for the Lovers & Friends Festival announced that it had been 'canceled' on social media.
In a festival update, uploaded to Instagram on Friday, one post read: 'Lovers & Friends Festival organizers have been monitoring the weather for several days and proactively preparing for a windy Saturday.'
'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,' they wrote as the reason for the last minute cancellation.
Janet Jackson and Alicia Keys were among the dozens of artist forced to cancel their appearance at Saturday's Lovers and Friends Festival in Las Vegas. The National Weather service forecast high winds, which created a risk of injury for artists and guests.
