Some of music's biggest names descended on the Great Lawn at New York City's iconic Central Park for the"We Love NYC: The Homecoming Concert" on Saturday to perform for a vaccinated crowd of 60,000.The concert was meant to be"a celebration of New York City's comeback" after a challenging 17 months marked by the Covid-19 pandemic and"promote health, safety, and equity," according to a news release for the show.
Barry Manilow's performance of"I Can't Smile Without You" was cut short due to the inclement weather in the area. While he was interrupted by loudspeakers making evacuation announcements, Manilow was able to talk to Anderson Cooper about the interruption and sing the song he wasn't able to perform.The event, which was aired exclusively on CNN, was produced by legendary music executive Clive Davis in coordination with the city of New York and Live Nation.
I guess the President called an early withdrawal at your concert too,..good thing it wasn’t a disaster as well…oh wait!!…yeah….
Super spreader!
So concert canceled by rain is breaking news while Afghanistan is melting down into a new terrorist safe haven and thousands of American lives are at risk there because of Biden screw up?
It’s not a comeback when in the middle of a COVID19 surge! Good grief!
Please help me! My name is Lin donglong, an employee of China telecom fuzhou branch. Company manager huang fei (communist party of China) organized the leadership of the gang of evil forces brutal persecution: surveillance location, insult,abuse, framed to take nude photos of me
Liberal concert ended early because of climate change.
Watch this video
CNNweather what comeback, NYCMayor? 🤡
You did not have good health and safety in place. 101 of large scale outdoor events is address the weather. No lightening arrester? What were you thinking? All week talk of a hurricane and your crew were in the dark
Everytime it is premature ejac celebrations 🍾 during an ongoing pandemic.
Before I hear replies that they were vaccinated, so were the democrats from Texas on the plane ride to Washington.
A super spreader event, but it's ok because the democrats don't have to follow the rules.
Sooooooo, like literally NO ONE thought to check the weather forecast?
I have to admit to being close to conversion after this past week.
Media ROUTINELY manufactures one crisis after another for the sake of confirming extreme bias. _ TOO BIZARRE --
Go and stay home
What’s it like performing a complete 180° in 48 hrs of news? How does it feel to realize the poppycock you’ve pedantically pushed for the last 5 years has let the collective humanity down? What’s it like to vote for someone whom you and the like “won” an election for?
CNN should be marked as American affiliated state media
طالب در مذیقه مواد سوخت برای موتر های که از اردو و پولیس دزدیده بودند. .. امروز طالب در کوچه و پسکوچه های کابل با ترس دست و گریبان بودند
Henri probably helped minimize what would have been a super spreader event.
everything exposed through this video!!
Dump
How are those masks doing? Social distancing?
Is it a sign?
Disappointed in CNN,LEMON,COOPER AND DeBLASSIO you guys are always talking about how much covid and the variant should be taken seriously but yet having a concert with no mask but a few. Very idiotic and dangerous what are you guys thinking
Will CNN be reporting about all of the people not wearing masks at the concert they supported?
Mother Nature is telling people to stay home. But they just won’t listen.
Climate change speaking about a NYC comeback….
Yet Anderson Cooper killed it while we waited. I do hope CNN will replay what they did get. I turned on the TV just as Barry Manilow came on, so, ya know, missed all the music.
Nyc comeback ? Wtf 🤬 people still losing their lives everyday and numbers are up ⬆️ those vaccinated can still carry the virus 🦠 and no mask 😷 what a joke
So many mixed messages being sent about this Pandemic. Sad. Sad. Sad. Use common sense people and avoid large crowds. Vaxxed or Unvaccinated.
Your broadcast today was a $h!t show. So bad even Andy dumped andersoncooper stop
This should have never been allowed. Irresponsible. Shame on y’all.
Another blemish in Cuomo's legacy.
We're out here throwing huge concerts with thousands of people in NY and Chicago over 380,000 and then want to say Republican Govs are spreading Covid. 🤔 something just doesn't add up. Maybe it doesn't spread at their events 🤷🏿 Im all for it though there's nothing 2 worry about
Aweee... how cute. Their super spreader event was cut short.
Global warming cancelled it?
Still had a better showing than the Mets
It’s an Omen.
The show must go on no
Masks were not required at the outdoor event , except for unvaccinated children .
Mother Nature's way of sending NYCMayor a message.
Even before the bad weather hit , many were still concerned over Covid -19 , despite vaccination requirements .
Looks like a super spreader event to me
andersoncooper saved the day! Fantastic 2+ hours of commentary! Great job 👏🏼
Not because of the deadly transmissible virus but because bad weather 🙄
Fitting….
