Nicki Minaj was scheduled to headline the Jeddah World Fest concert, however, she pulled out of it right after tickets went on sale.

Jeddah World Fest tickets were made available just a few hours ago and over 11,000 tickets were sold in the first hour alone.

Jeddah music fans need not worry as Liam Payne and Steve Aoki are still scheduled to perform.

And, on top of that, a host of other performers for the Jeddah World Fest will be announced next week.

Nicki Minaj or not, seeing the way tickets are selling for the concert one thing is for sure and that is that the concert is set to be a sure shot success.
