Dylan skipped Obama's ceremony to celebrate US Nobel winners

Oops... Bob did it again. Legendary US singer-songwriter Bob Dylan, indeed, skipped president Obama's ceremony at the White House to celebrate American Nobel Prize winners, according to "The Hill". The event took place on November 30.

Obama’s spokesman Josh Earnest, told reporters:

Unfortunately, Bob Dylan will not be at the White House today. So everyone can relax.

This is just another act in the Dylan Nobel saga: the artist, last month, was awarded the 2016 Nobel Prize in Literature, but remained silent after the honor was announced. According to reports, he was not even responding to the Nobel Committee’s emails. Once he finally accepted the prize, it he told the Swedish Academy that he would not attend the December 10 ceremony in Stockholm.
