Pearlman was scheduled to appear Monday but was replaced following the White House Correspondents’ Dinner incident involving an attempted attack on President Trump.
During the dinner, Pearlman was performing for President Trump and First Lady Melania when shots were fired and the president was rushed out; suspect Cole Tomas Allen was charged with attempted assassination.
Pearlman later confirmed he was unharmed and praised the Secret Service’s response. The lineup change comes as Trump and Melania call for Jimmy Kimmel’s show to be canceled after a controversial joke.
