Vanilla Ice doubles down on Freedom 250 after artist exodus: 'Once you commit, you don't quit'

Vanilla Ice is doubling down on his decision to perform at Freedom 250’s Great American State Fair as several artists have withdrawn from the events amid backlash.

The Great American State Fair is a planned 16-day festival that will be held on the National Mall in Washington, D.C., running from June 25 to July 10 as part of the nation's 250th anniversary celebrations. The fair is being organized by Freedom 250, a nonprofit backed by President Donald Trump and working with the White House Task Force 250.
