Speaking to TMZ, Lil Jon said that the singer “wasn’t really ready” for doing a performance of that scale.

“We wanted to put Justin in the show, so we had the idea of doing a version of the show with Justin in it,” he shared. “But I think Justin just wasn’t really ready to have a lot of rehearsal, a lot of responsibility, a lot of time and a lot of eyeballs. I don’t know if he was ready to do all of that, you know?”

Justin‘s fans started believing that the singer would appear onstage during the show when he was spotted arriving in Las Vegas. However, he only attended the game. He watched with his wife Hailey, their friend Kendall Jenner and some other stars.

“I mean, he definitely was there supporting Ush and they’re really good friends and he definitely was supporting him,” Lil Jon said.

The timing for him to take the stage would be smart. After all, the singer did just deliver his first concert in over a year earlier this month.
