Fabolous

Rapper Fabolous disappointed thousands of fans at Harvard University on Saturday after skipping a concert fundraiser due to scheduling conflicts.

The Trade It All star, real name John Jackson, was due to take to the stage at 9pm for the Eleganza Fashion Show in Massachusetts, but failed to show up in time after being held back following a show at Brown University in Rhode Island.

Organisers at Harvard broke the news to concertgoers at 10.45pm and advised the 1,500-strong crowd to go home - only for Fabolous to arrive at 11.30pm, after everyone had left.

The rapper's team admitted to being at fault and agreed to fully refund organisers' deposit.
