Brooklyn rapper Fabolous left thousands of fans at Harvard University disappointed this past Saturday (April 25), by missing a scheduled performance at the Eleganza Fashion Show fundraiser.
The rapper was supposed to take to the stage around 9:00 PM for the fundraiser, but missed the show due to a prior engagement at Brown University.
Around 10:45 organizers told the 1,500 attendees that Fabolous would not be performing and asked everyone to exit the venue.
Fabolous eventually arrived around 11:30 PM, but it was too late.
Representatives for the rapper admitted to being at fault and returned half of the deposit on Saturday, while agreeing to pay the remaining balance this week.
The 15th Annual Eleganza Fashion Show is aimed at celebrating cultural diversity on the Ivy League school’s campus.
Proceeds from the show are donated to Boston charities that work with underserved urban youth.
