I am positive that this event will be an event great enough in scale, talent and imagination to form a worthy celebration of Michael's life." But we feel that the most important tribute we can give to our brother at this time is to seek justice in his name."Īt the press conference, Katherine Jackson said: "Michael gave his entire life to the world through his love, his music and his devotion to healing the planet. "There will come a time and place for an amazing and deserving tribute to Michael. "Furthermore, the decision to proceed with this concert disrespects opinions and wishes expressed in the strongest terms to Global Live during conversations in April when this event was presented to the majority of the family as an idea already in its advanced stages. "In light of this, we feel it is inappropriate to be involved with such an ill-timed event and its promoter, Global Live. "As everyone knows, those proceedings commence September 20th, and this Michael Forever concert takes place in Cardiff, Wales, on October 8th.
MICHAEL JACKSON 3D CONCERT TRIAL
"While we wholeheartedly support the spirit of a tribute that honours our brother, we find it impossible to support an event that is due to take place during the criminal trial surrounding Michael's death. However, we want to make clear that this does not reflect the position of the entire family. The brothers said: "Today's press conference in Los Angeles announced a tribute concert to Michael to be attended and supported by the Jackson family. The show will take place at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff on 8 October, Katherine Jackson told a press conference on Monday, adding that it will be attended by "as many members of my family that are available".However, Jermaine and Randy Jackson said in a statement they believed the timing of the concert was "inappropriate" and "ill-timed" as it falls two weeks into the criminal trial of Conrad Murray, the doctor charged with involuntary manslaughter in relation to the star's death two years ago. New divisions appear to have opened in the family of Michael Jackson after two of the singer's brothers criticised their mother's announcement that a tribute concert will be held later this year in Wales.
