Remember AEG Live? the concert-promotion arm of AEG? Yes this is the same organization that had the contracts of 50 concerts in hand with Jackson prior to his untimely demise. Well its now hosting a musical memorial dedicated to the artist. Beyoncé and Whitney Houston, however, will be there as presenters but will not perform. Other stars all set to participate are:

According to reports – “lots and lots of family” will be coming — “We’re talking about 300 cousins and 40 grandkids and great grandkids and some of the old acts the Jackson 5 used to perform with, like the Chi-Lites will be there.”. On the contrary, Jackson’s ex-wife Debbie Rowe has decided that she will not attend the memorial as it would create too much chaos if she shows up. Likewise, Jacko pal Elizabeth Taylor also declined to participate. She tweeted: “I cannot be part of the public whoopla. And I cannot guarantee that I would be coherent to say a word. I just don’t believe that Michael would want me to share my grief with millions of others.

Do you want to catch this grand event even when you are far far way from Hollywood Hills? Luckily you can! And even more luckily you have a number of options to choose from. I can say with certainty that there must be an endless network and cable TV coverage.
