Ne-Yo a No-Show in Seattle

Posted by Bossip Staff

ne-yo

As you can see from the pic above and by reading the story below, things don’t look good for Ne-Yo:

Grammy Award-winning R&B singer/songwriter Ne-Yo is already in trouble – just a few days into the New Year.

According to Seattle’s King5 News, Ne-Yo was a no-show at a much-anticipated New Year’s bash and has yet to issue refunds.

Billed as the biggest New Year’s Eve bash in the Bellevue area, featuring the “Year of the Gentleman” star, the Meydenbauer Center charged concertgoers $75 – $1,200 for tickets and exclusive VIP access – unfortunately for them there would be no Ne-Yo, no “Miss Independent” and definitely no performance of “Closer”.

Party-goer Michael Brandt told King5: “At 11:30 they had a pre-recorded message from Ne-Yo. He was on a plane from Nigeria and not able to come. They probably knew a day in advance. They could have cancelled or given a refund.”

Promoted for weeks, the Meydenbauer concert sold nearly 300 tickets but the promoters have yet to refund ticket holders who attended the bash with the hope of seeing Ne-Yo.

If you’re searching for a refund King5 says good luck. the sponsor Wet Entertainment can’t be found on the web and the local marketing manager’s phone no longer works.

WTF, Ne-Yo. Well, where the hell were you? You had better take your happy ass back to Seattle and give those people what they paid for, you jerk.

  7. Hannibal

    WHY IS EVERYONE MAKIN FUN OF HIS HAIR, MAYBE HE GETS HIS HAIRCUT LIKE THAT…

  8. BOSSIP_LEE_THE_*****_NINJA ( I promised my Master that I would be First One Day Heeeyaah *****)

    TOP 8!!!! FIYYYAHHHH

  9. ms meca

    i never noticed his hair bein lik that??? even when his hat is off


  10. now I know why he wears a hat,he looks a hot mess

  11. Jody

    Explains the dumb hat, just let it go Ne gro…Ne Yo whatever

  12. BE

    Yeah at those prices…answers are needed and/or refunds!


  13. This is not good business, NeYo!


  14. That’s a lot of money to pay just to see Neyo…

  15. BlackLADYDoctor

    I don’t enjoy seeing him with his hat off.

    You would think with all the Master and Doctorate Degrees in Seattle people would’ve been smarter. I would never ‘pay’ to see Neyo or celebrities who don’t care to perform for those who SUPPORT them.

  16. iluvprada

    If you’re searching for a refund King5 says good luck. the sponsor Wet Entertainment can’t be found on the web and the local marketing manager’s phone no longer works….(thats messed up!!!!!!)

  17. Marc B's Honey...Mrs. Real Talk

    Is this a jail mugshot of him? I don’t know, but why in the hell would he be caught dead looking like this? This picture must be before he became “Mr. Independent”…lmao

  18. roni

    Guess Miss Independent had other plans.

  19. Listen up

    That’s ridiculous. I saw them advertising his show but my first thought was “yea m-fing right. To see him?” And it seems every celeb appearance event ends up being a let down. I’m happy I paid zero dollars and hit up a local casino, it was poppin in there and we didnt pay *****tt!

  20. Don't mind me

    ha ha “SPAM” I always thought he over did it with the hats now I know why that forhead needs a slap

  21. YoYo

    WTF?? He was on New Year’s Rockin Eve!! All night

  22. Nikki

    Yall hating… HE WAS IN NIGERIA!!! I was in Nigeria also flying back with him on Delta that same flight, our flight was delayed like 5 hours it wasnt our fault, Neyo wasnt the only one who missed , I didnt make my connecting flight to home and I had to stay in ATL for New Years. But Neyo was very polite and kind in Nigeria, i wouldnt want to come and perform for savages like you.

  23. Misschoklate

    Ummmm, Ne-Yo needs to keep them hats on his head. Ooooo he looks a hot dang mess with all that balding going on. Yuck.

  24. Marshabio

    Ugly as f*cking sin. And this is the authority on beauty? Just like Hitler seeking a world of blue eyed, blond haired, “perfection”.

  25. Marshabio

    He has no talent on stage. Like Kanye and others, he needs to just continue writing and producing for others.

  26. TADEN

    It’s true….flight was delayed. I pretty sure he would have in wet a** Seattle.(L.A. is better)
    *****Hannibal give me a call******

  27. Make sure yo butt is on that plastic!

    I bet Seattle is relieved, they are spared of his ugly face.

  28. justme

    That right this is some symmetry.

  29. Listen up

    You must be retarded. If you commit to something, especially a paid event where people are dishing out money on a huge night to see you as a professional, you better be sure you can make it. Why did he commit to this knowing he was gonna be on such a strict schedule? He should have planned his travel arrangements at least 2 days apart from eachother so that a delayed flight would not be a problem. flights are delayed all the time, and especially during holidays and you think its okay that he planned his appearance just hoping everything would be on time, and f*ck it if it isn’t? That is irresponsible and shows no consideration for his fans. I hope he doesnt come back, he sucks anyway. Gay ***** short balding man… he looks like a child molester.

  31. NIkki said she was in Africa, beeyotch can't spell P*****PORT

    I wouldn’t give a damn if he was stuck in Gaza! If people have paid for a service it should be provided. Emergency situations happen…to everyone, but most of these ’starlets’ are fakers or worse, dope addicts. I got your savage at nikki its in my pants beeyotch

  32. Crazy ***** Rodney

    “I bet Seattle is relieved, they are spared of his ugly face.”

  34. Brazil Baby

    huh?

  35. snitchette

    he got his ***** beat at the LV store and didnt want to show his face. do you research BOSSIP, who always puts thier 2 cents in.

  36. the voice of me

    i was watching some show on mtv a while back and he admitted that he always wears those hats cuz he was losing his hair. he tried to spin it like it was out of preference instead of force though, like “well it just became my thing in high school, ya know? my look” yeah alright man.

    but damn *****, at least shave that ***** off, pull an LL or a Com Sense or something, make the most of it. out here lookin like uncle kwillie and *****

  37. Playlist

    Is he part Chinese?


  38. Who goes and asks the barber for the balding look?


  39. MAYBE HE IS SPENDING ALL OF HIS TIME WITH THE LIGHT SKINNED PRETTY KIDS


  40. Ne-Yo was in Hawaii partying it up for New Year’s! FACT!!!

  41. ms.kelly

    I can’t believe this, I’m from Seattle and saw Ne-yo with Trey Songz in June of 07′.He is such a talenter performer and his sets are really engaging, but I guess this goes back to how Seattle continually gets the short end from artists.


  42. look at his eye’s hope it’s just drinkimg an night out,,,,and not *****e,,,or crack

  43. terry

    now I see why he wears a hat. Bolding like George Jefferson.

  44. dayg715

    she’s definitely a Queen. only Queens do triflin’ ***** like this.

  45. Theme

    Whats up with tha ugly pic

  46. Fake*****HungryHo's

    he look like a serial killer, lol. just kidding. he is uber-talented. I like Neyo. He’s not ugly, he’s just follically challenged. He does have nice eyes.

  47. MeanGurl

    Bossip this pic is so last year and that is so Mean what u said..lol. Sometime you have to look past the oogliness and focus on the positve like his voice, his eyes. And um his lips. But that HEAD..um um ..NO

  48. MeanGurl

    shat, Neo is a good looking brotha while u trippin. I had to go take another look.


  49. NOT A GOOD LOOK MISS HONEY

  50. LeeLee

    That pic is old as hell.. Where were u NeYo?

  51. memchee

    I hope he really was delayed somewhere.

  52. rightous t

    i’m from seattle!! The cheapest ticket was 125!

  53. Simple Pleasures

    I live in Portland Oregon, and I don’t even recall Neyo’s concert being advertised on our local radio stations. Many of us travel to Seattle for concerts and other events and vice versa. Point being, the tickets may not have sold well, which is not uncommon for most black concerts that come our way; that’s why so many artists choose to byp***** the NW. Ain’t but so many of us out here. So Hell, I can’t blame the brother.

    Take it from someone who lives here. If I had cash like Neyo, I would have been ringing in the New Year somewhere a hell of alot more exciting than out here, shoooot, LOL!

  54. Simple Pleasures

    Oh yeah, and Bossip Administrator, thank you SOOOO much! Hopefully the offending parties will take heeed to the warning. It’s starting to look really messy in these boards.

  55. kdawg

    I paid good money to see Ne-Yo in Houston last yr and after a 2-hour delay he came on stage and said he wasn’t paid enough for the concert, sang 3 songs and left! BOO!

  56. whateva!
