The City Parks Foundation has canceled an upcoming concert by R&B artist Kehlani in Central Park, following pressure from Mayor Eric Adams' administration. The decision was influenced by security concerns raised due to the singer's pro-Palestinian views, which led to controversy surrounding her previous performance cancellation at Cornell University. First Deputy Mayor Randy M. Mastro emphasized that the cancellation was not directly due to Kehlani's personal beliefs, but rather focused on potential security risks associated with the concert and the broader context of Pride events in New York City.
