Bonnaroo Unexpectedly Canceled Mid-Festival for 'Crazy' Reason
Bonnaroo Unexpectedly Canceled Mid-Festival for 'Crazy' Reason originally appeared on Parade.
Bonnaroo, the major music festival based in Manchester, Tenn., was forced to cancel the remaining three days of the four-day festival late on Friday, June 13.
The festival explained that they were "beyond gutted" to announce that the weekend's weather forecast anticipated too dangerous of conditions to move forward.
"...significant and steady precipitation...will produce deteriorating camping and egress conditions in the coming days," the festival announced on social media.
The news comes after a significant weather delay was put in place earlier on Friday due to approaching storm cells.
"Some of your fellow campers' sites are in rough shape," the statement continued, noting that the rain so far had made "certain parts of [the property] difficult to manage." As such, the festival was prioritizing getting campers in affected areas and folks with accessibility needs out to safety as soon as they could.
Food, health and safety stations are set to remain operational throughout the evacuation. All single-day ticket-holders for the rest of the weekend can expect 100 percent refunds, while those with four-day tickets will receive 75 percent of their money back.
A concert update account reshared the news on X, where one user noted, "The rain has been CRAZY this year, be safe y'all."
"Friday the 13th hitting hard this year," an Instagram user quipped amid the chaotic comment section on Bonnaroo's account.Bonnaroo Unexpectedly Canceled Mid-Festival for 'Crazy' Reason first appeared on Parade on Jun 14, 2025

Alex proposed to Abedin "at home in New York City in late May" with the couple having "a formal celebration in Italy" later, according to Vogue. They met in 2023 at a birthday party for a mutual friend, 'where they quickly discovered their mutual interests in politics and public service," according to the outlet. Not long after, Abedin and Alex started dating and quickly fell in love. Alex told New York Magazine that Abedin taught him what true love looked like, saying, 'I hadn't been in a relationship for a very long time — 10 years or something like that — that had lasted for more than three months. And it's, like, the first time I realized I had been mistaking lust for love.' Abedin shared the same sentiments, telling the magazine that she "had never imagined I would meet someone whose life so seamlessly blended with mine.' Leading up to their engagement, the pair had been photographed together at several events, including at the 2024 Met Gala and a White House state dinner honoring Kenyan President William Ruto. Abedin is a former aide to former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and was the vice-chairperson for her 2016 presidential campaign. She was formerly married to U.S. Rep. Anthony Weiner. The two share a 13-year-old son named Jordan. Alex is the son of 93-year-old billionaire George Soros, and the chairman of Open Society Foundations (OSF), the $25 billion grant-making foundation founded by his father. He previously spent two years as president of his father's super PAC, which works to support Democratic politicians, according to the Washington Post. Read the original article on People

Melania Trump Suits Up for the Military Parade
It wasn't exactly dress whites, but it was dressy and white, with thin blue pinstripes and shiny silver buttons. And while it may not have had epaulets, it did have shoulder pads. As Melania Trump took her place next to her husband in the presidential viewing stand to watch the Army's 250th anniversary parade, her suit suggested that if he was the commander in chief, she was his general. As he has his own uniform of Pavlovian patriotism (navy suit, white shirt and red tie), she has hers. Regalia takes all forms. As such, the suit was something of a riposte to those who would still see her as a reluctant political spouse: Whether or not she spends all her time in the White House, she's there, and appropriately costumed for key scenes like this one. And it was fully in line with the almost militantly controlled and contained public image Mrs. Trump had been crafting since the end of her husband's first term, when she wore an army green Alexander McQueen skirt suit to give her speech at the Republican National Convention in 2020. She even wore a trench coat, a garment originally made for British soldiers in World War I, to the White House Easter Egg Roll in April. Politics is a battlefield, she has always seemed to be saying, and you have to armor yourself accordingly. Even if only in a buttoned-up skirt suit, with stilettos on your feet instead of in your pockets. If this particular skirt suit — a double-breasted cotton twill blazer with a matching high-waisted pencil skirt — was a little more navy (or country club navy) than army, it still had an awfully regimental vibe.
