Nicki Minaj to Headline Saudi Arabia's Jeddah World Fest The "Megatron" songstress is scheduled to perform on July 18. Anyone 16 and older can enter the festival, which will also showcase DJ Steve Aoki and singer Liam Payne. The event will be held at King Abdullah Sports Stadium and is alcohol and drug free. Due to Minaj's provocative style, many were surprised at the move. But in recent years, the conservative Saudi kingdom has been loosening up restrictions on entertainment. Besides Minaj, Mariah Carey, Enrique Iglesias and Sean Paul have performed in the country since last year. According to organizers, the Jeddah World Fest will be broadcast worldwide. MTV will also showcase the music festival.
