Janet Jackson 'heartbroken' after weather cancels Lovers & Friends festival

The event was set to feature performances from a host of past stars of pop, rap and R&B including Usher, Alicia Keys, Kelly Rowland, Backstreet Boys, Mary J. Blige, Snoop Dogg and many more. However, in a statement issued under 24 hours before the event, organisers cancelled due to a High Wind Warning stating there would be, "dangerous 30-35 mph sustained winds with gusts potentially more than 60 mph." "We are heartbroken we won't be able to see you tonight at Lovers & Friends due to the possibility of dangerous winds," Janet wrote in a post on Instagram.
