Well it looks like Jermaine Jackson jumped the gun when he announced Chris Brown as a headliner of the upcoming Michael Jackson tribute concert. Chris’ people just released a statement to the media:
“Chris is not confirmed to perform or participate in any capacity for this show,” the publicist for Brown’s label tells E! News.
Below is our post prior to the statement released by Chris Brown’s publicist..
CHRIS BROWN is to make his musical comeback by headlining the upcoming tribute concert to MICHAEL JACKSON in Vienna, Austria. The R&B star was sentenced to five years probation and ordered to serve six months hard labor after pleading guilty to a vicious assault on his ex-girlfriend Rihanna last February.
The hitmaker has not performed in public since the incident, but now is ready to make his return to the stage – he has been announced as the first headline act for the star-studded Jackson tribute concert set to take place on September 26th. The news was revealed by the King of Pop’s brother Jermaine Jackson at a press conference in Vienna on Tuesday.
“Michael was his idol and he (Brown) dedicated his first number one hit in the U.S. to Michael. Chris is a very, very talented artist.”
Other artists on the bill include Mary J. Blige, Natalie Cole and Sister Sledge. The rest of the line up will be unveiled in a series of press conferences to be held over the course of this week with scheduled stops in both London and Berlin, Germany.

Jermaine Jackson speaks about his brother Michael Jackson’s death during a press conference at Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center Thursday, June 25th in Los Angeles, California. The iconic pop star, 50, was rushed to the hospital after going into cardiac arrest, according to reports.
My brother, the legendary king of pop Michael Jackson, passed away on Thursday, June 25, 2009 at 2:26 p.m. It is believed he suffered cardiac arrest in his home. However, the cause of his death is unknown until results of the autopsy are done.
His personal physician, who was with him at the time, attempted to resuscitate my brother. As did the paramedics who transmitted him to Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center. Upon arriving at the hospital at approximately 1:14 p.m., a team of doctors including emergency physicians and cardiologists, attempted to resuscitate him for a period of more than one hour and they were unsuccessful.
Our family requests that the media please respect our privacy during this tough time. May Allah be with you Michael, always. (CLICK HERE TO VIDEO VIDEO OF HIS STATEMENT)
