Michael Jackson tribute to be announced at London’s O2 Arena
A star-studded Michael Jackson tribute is expected to be announced at London’s O2 Arena featuring a hologram of the star, it has been claimed.
Reports claim stars including Justin Timberlake, pictured, Leona Lewis, Usher and Ne-Yo have been approached to perform at the concert by AEG Live and sing cover versions of Jacko’s tracks.
The gig will reportedly be held on August 29, on what would have been Jacko’s 51st birthday. It is claimed producers are hoping to project a hologram of the star onto the stage.
A source at AEG Live said: “There has been frantic activity both in AEG’s London and LA offices.
“It will be a celebration of Michael Jackson’s life through his music. The producers want to avoid a sombre memorial tone.”
