A report published by Raw Story, citing Vanity Fair and other media outlets, says that several well-known Hollywood figures are not expected to attend a UFC event planned at the White House to celebrate President Donald Trump's 80th birthday on June 14.

The event, reportedly valued at about $60 million, is expected to feature a UFC cage fight on the South Lawn and has attracted strong interest from political donors, lobbyists, and members of Congress seeking access to the limited seating available.According to the report, premium ringside seats may be associated with sponsorship contributions exceeding $1 million.

UFC president Dana White told Time magazine that invitations had been extended to a number of celebrities, including Adam Sandler, Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson, Jared Leto, Mario Lopez, and Tom Brady.

However, Vanity Fair reported that representatives for several of those celebrities, including Johnson, Sandler, Leto, and Lopez, stated that they would not be attending the event.

The article suggests that the reluctance of some entertainers to participate reflects broader challenges surrounding Trump's planned celebrations connected to the nation's 250th anniversary observances.

It also notes that a separate concert series planned for the National Mall reportedly encountered difficulties after multiple performers withdrew, with some citing concerns about political partisanship.According to the article, Trump responded by proposing a MAGA rally as an alternative.

The report additionally notes that the birthday event is taking place during ongoing tensions involving the conflict with Iran and that Trump personally curated the guest list.
