After proposed headliners Mary J Blige and Chris Brown dropped off the bill of the planned Michael Jackson tribute concert in Vienna, the promotions group in charge has decided to cancel the event. Jermaine Jackson was quoted as saying that "It has just taken the wrong course. I personally didn't want to take that course because Michael wouldn't have wanted to be part of anything that was going that way." Plans are now allegedly under way for a tribute concert to be held at Wembley Stadium in June 2010. [Reuters]
