The Fugees, consisting of Lauryn Hill, Wyclef Jean, and Pras Michel, reunited for a surprise performance at the Roots Picnic in Philadelphia. The group had announced a tour in celebration of their 25th anniversary, but it was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This may be the last time fans see the trio together as Michel is facing up to 20 years in prison after being found guilty on 10 criminal counts related to an international conspiracy.
The Fugees surprised fans with a six-song set during Lauryn Hill's headlining performance at the Roots Picnic music festival, celebrating the 25th anniversary of her album, The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill. This may be the last time the three band members perform together due to Pras Michel's recent federal charges. The Fugees had planned a reunion tour that was canceled due to the pandemic, and they played one reunion show in 2021. The set included hits such as "Killing Me Softly" and "Fu-Gee-La."
Actor Leonardo DiCaprio testified in the trial of former Fugees member Pras Michel, who is facing charges of conspiracy and witness tampering related to his relationship with Malaysian billionaire Jho Low. Prosecutors allege Michel helped steer Low's money into Barack Obama's 2012 reelection campaign and then tried to influence the Trump administration to drop a criminal case against Low, in exchange for nearly $100 million. DiCaprio testified about his dealings with Low, including receiving gifts and pay for his work on The Wolf of Wall Street, which Low helped finance.
