The “Great American State Fair” – a multi-day festival organized by the President Donald Trump-linked group Freedom 250 – has seen a mass exodus of performers bail on the event after they learned of its ties to the president, and the Trump administration is scrambling to find acts to replace them, insiders told Zeteo in its report Saturday.

“We can’t just have Kid Rock every day [of the state fair],” a Trump appointee told Zeteo, speaking on the condition of anonymity. “It’s a little f------ embarrassing when you can’t hold on to Bret Michaels… But we’re confident we’ll get a good line-up.”

Since announcing the lineup for the patriotic event designed to celebrate the United States’ 250th anniversary, “nearly all” performers had pulled out of the event. An entertainment industry insider, also speaking on the condition of anonymity, told Zeteo that when reaching out to artists for the event, Freedom 250 “seemed almost purposefully vague at times, with Donald Trump’s name not being used once.”....

The Trump administration’s search for replacement acts may prove difficult, however, based on the feedback from one “well-connected Hollywood agent” who spoke with Zeteo on the condition of anonymity.
