    I don't really get this Tribute Concert... the fans are boycotting it, there aren't even that many big names, not even all the Jacksons are going to be there, and yet even in my country (The Netherlands) it's going to be live on television. It just doesn't add up.  suspicious// <br /><br />Any ideas about the role this tribute concert is going to play? I don't think anything will happen there... although I think there are going to be clues like at the memorial.

    There will be no tribute concert.. How can you give a tribute to a man WHO IS ALIVE??? Slowly slowly, everyone will drop out.. Bingo no concert..

    <br /><br />There are tribute concerts for people who are alive, aren't there? Maybe I'm thinking of something else.<br /><br />However, this just seems off. I am hopeful that this is intentional on MJ's part because if it's not then I'm appalled at the lack of support from the entertainment industry for Michael. Will.I.Am is a good friend to Michael so that has me curious as to why they'd back out.<br /><br />I will be watching it because I know that Michael is alive and there has to be some purpose in this or else I don't believe MJ's kids wouldn't be there.<br /><br />Blessings<br />

    Yeah, I don't really think it's going to happen... if it does it will probably be more like a pieced together show of pre-recorded performances than a live tribute. Just a guess. <br />As for Black Eyed Peas dropping out... well, duh! lol.. I think Will I Am is a pretty smart dude and probably has had an idea of what is going on for quite some time.

    So who will remain, Christina aguillera, Cee lo Green, Jaimie Foxx. that is the tribute??<br />You can do a tribute with only 3 artist.. Oh yeah also the Jacksons.. I think, it will be cancelled.

    There is a rumor of splitting for the band. I just heard that on the radio...Maybe it's the reason why they cancelled for the show.
  • alfarlealfarle Posts: 440
    Maybe they're under a ctrl spell too and maybe they are afraid that they would get in trouble for supporting Michael.... So maybe that's why they backed out.

    Well the facebook thing is cancelled acording to this: http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2394286,00.asp#fbid=0vk9x64DeJi<br /> <br />and Chris Brown has been refused entry (I didn't realise he was invited) according to this:<br />http://www.mirror.co.uk/celebs/news/2011/10/07/chris-brown-barred-from-entering-the-uk-for-michael-jackson-tribute-gig-115875-23471993/<br /> <br />So it's not looking too good  :shock:

    So:<br /><br />BEP aren't coming<br />Chris Brown isn't coming<br />It won't be aired live in 30 countries anymore<br />The Facebook stream is canceled<br /><br />Is this Tribute going to happen at all??? With so many negative news it wouldn't surprise me if it gets canceled.

    <br /><br />Here's a quote from the article about Chris Brown:  <br /><br />"It was suggested Brown perform as a hologram from the US but a source said: “It would put a negative slant on the day. “The family wants to make sure the show is a fitting tribute to Michael.”<br />A HOLOGRAM?  <br /><br />So if Chris Brown were there it would put a negative spin....so why was he invited?<br />

    The show is still going on. LaToya, Jackie, even Paris have all recently tweeted about it yesterday and today. Jackie tweeted yesterday I believe that he was excited and that he was just getting out of rehearsals(not verbatim). Let the show go on! party/ /bravo/ /bravo/ beerchug

    So nobody can watch the show, only the people with tickets ...  confused/ <br />It supposed to be aired in 100 countries live.<br /> <br />Nice a tribute almost nobody can see ...  /pull hair/ <br /> <br />(I was hoping for a big surprise, but it's not going to happen now.)<br /> <br /> <br />
