Virginia Beach native Pharrell Williams recently made in attempt to host in event at the Cavalier hotel. Williams was also going to bring comedian Dave Chappelle as well. Unfortunately, though, that plan was turned down by Bruce Thompson, Virginia Beach Business man.

Thompson says one reason for him turning down the plan was the potential “content” of Chappelle’s show, among others.

This comes days after Pharrell says his festival “Something In The Water” won’t be returning to Virginia Beach.
