The Weeknd was supposed to perform at Global Citizen Festival in Central Park this Saturday. That’s not happening anymore. The singer born Abel Tesfaye, whose album Hurry Up Tomorrow arrived at the top of the year, has dropped out of the New York City event due to “personal reasons.” Instead, Cardi B, fresh off an album release of her own, will perform.
