You may have heard that this year marks the United States of America’s 250th birthday, and Donald Trump is going all out when it comes to “250 Freedom” events.

Construction has begun on an Octagon-shaped cage on the White House south lawn, which is set to host a controversial UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship).

The mixed martial arts extravaganza has already rubbed people up the wrong way, with many comparing it to the Hunger Games and highlighting that cage matches may not be the best way to spend money when Americans are struggling with healthcare cuts, soaring inflation, and rising fuel prices.

“Elect a clown, expect a circus,” as one X user put it.

Now, a new event has been announced: The Great American State Fair, which will take place from 25 June – 10 July at the National Mall in Washington, DC.

The musical line-up has been revealed and it’s... charitably, very 90s. Absolutely nothing wrong with that. We missthe decade and its music output. However, when you peruse the headliners, it's a different story. Less charitably, it’s a set of has-beens who rely on nostalgia tours.

The performers include Vanilla Ice, Martina McBride, C+C Music Factory, Young MC, Morris Day, Poison’s Bret Michaels, Flo Rida and Fab Morvan - the surviving member of the lip-syncing duo Milli Vanilli.

Girl, you know it’s true...

Less true is the announcement that Morris Day, best known as the lead singer of The Time (a group associated with Prince), will be performing.

Day took to Instagram, writing: “Contrary to rumor, Morris Day & The Time will not be performing at the ‘Great American State Fair.'” adding, “It’s A No For Me.”

Fair enough. We’re sure that Kid Rock will be very happy to step in as a replacement.

Will the remaining member of Milli Vanilli be lip syncing both parts?
