After his first performance in six years closed out Weekend 1 of the festival, a representative told Variety he would not be performing on Weekend 2.
According to the outlet, a statement from one of Ocean's representatives Wednesday, explained the artist was pulling out of his Weekend 2 headlining set due to doctor's orders as he rehabs multiple fractures and a sprain in his leg.
"After suffering an injury to his leg on festival grounds in the week leading up to weekend 1, Frank Ocean was unable to perform the intended show but was still intent on performing, and in 72 hours, the show was reworked out of necessity," the statement to Variety said, in part."‘It was chaotic. There is some beauty in chaos. It isn’t what I intended to show but I did enjoy being out there and I’ll see you soon.’ Frank Ocean.
Many fans on social media were further disappointed following the news Ocean wouldn't perform this weekend, with some calling it a "scam," while others said that Ocean was the main reason they bought tickets to this year's festival.All the news you need to know, every day
