Fyre Festival creator Billy McFarland is getting back into the cheese sandwich game — but don’t worry, these won’t come in styrofoam while you’re getting screwed out of a concert in the Bahamas.
Sources close to Billy tell TMZ he recently had a reunion, for the first time in 5 years, with Andy King. Yes, that Andy King from the Netflix documentary about Fyre … the guy who says Billy asked him to give oral sex to a customs officer to get shipments of Evian water released!!!
Seems all is well between them now, though, because they shot a video together promoting their newest venture … selling grilled cheeses at 7th Street Burger in NYC, and the clip is pretty funny.
The video features Andy makin’ the sandwiches — a tongue-in-cheek take on the ridiculous cheese-on-bread meals served at the doomed Bahamas festival back in 2017.
He’s also taking swigs from Evian bottles — yeah, they go there!
We’re told 100% of the sales from the April 7 event will go to the workers in the Bahamas who are still owed money from Fyre Fest. They also tease a Coachella trip in the video, but we’re told that hasn’t been set in stone yet.
OCTOBER 2022
As you know, Billy was released early from his 6-year sentence a year ago, and he’s already working on PYRT — another tropical festival, only based in virtual reality this time around.
Still chasing that cheddar … but at least it’s going to people who need it this time.
