Jermaine planning another Jacko tribute
By CMU Editorial | Published on Monday 8 March 2010
Jermaine Jackson is having another go at staging an all-star tribute show to his late brother Michael.
As you’ll remember, Jermaine was behind plans to stage such a show last year, but it all fell to pieces after half the acts announced to play told the press they’d agreed to no such thing.
The new tribute gala is set to take place at London’s Wembley Arena on 8 Jun, two weeks before the first anniversary of the late king of pop’s sudden death. It will be filmed for later TV transmission. It’s thought Janet Jackson will sing with the rest of the Jackson brothers as part of the show.
Jermaine said the tribute was “the best way and most suitable way” to pay tribute to “a man who moved the hearts and souls of an unimaginable” number of people.
