Those looking forward to the 'Anaconda' hit-maker's set were also left disappointed as her appearance was only 30 minutes long.

Minaj was due to take to the stage between 7pm and 8pm, just before David Guetta at 8.40pm.
Organisers wrote on Twitter that she would join Guetta "soon after" he starts, although the singer still wasn't there by 9pm due to unexpected travel issues.
Guetta was forced to go ahead with the pair's 'Turn Me On' single without Minaj's presence, leading to comparisons to Drake's absence at last year's Wireless Festival.

When Minaj finally made it, she told the crowd: "Our plane couldn't get out because of the weather but I want to tell you how much I f**king love y'all. I want to tell you how much I appreciate you guys for showing up from day one."
She added: "I want to say that to all the women in the building, if you are independent, make some motherf**king noise!"
However, some fans have vented their frustration on Twitter - including some who are demanding a refund.
I go all the way to wireless for nicki minaj and get less than her set as she was hours late! Absolutely gutted!
