Fabrice "Fab" Morvan, the surviving member of the iconic 1990s pop duo Milli Vanilli, has withdrawn from a scheduled performance at a U.S. anniversary celebration, citing political reasons.

This is not what I agreed to.

Morvan, who was set to perform at events commemorating the 250th anniversary of the USA, informed CNN that the occasion had evolved into something more politically charged than he had initially agreed to. "This is not what I agreed to," the 60-year-old stated, expressing his discomfort with the event's direction.

Just days prior, Morvan had indicated his intention to participate, aiming to unite people through music. However, a growing number of artists pulling out of the controversial concert series prompted his own doubts. "Over the course of the week, it turned into a circus," he remarked.
