Evidently, Jermaine Jackson planned a tribute to Michael Jackson in Vienna, Austria on September 26, without consulting the rest of the family or including them in any of the planning. He said that both Mary J. Blige and Chris Brown would be two of the headliners to perform in the show but reps for both Blige and Brown have said neither will be taking part. Others supposedly on the list are Natalie Cole, Akron and Sister Sledge. Who knows who will and won’t be there. In fact, if the rest of the family have their way there won’t be an event in Austria in September.
The family, with matriarch Katherine in the lead, are against it because, in part, it doesn’t make sense for the first tribute to be held in a country that Michael Jackson had no real connection to. However, Katherine eventually caved because of pressure from Jermaine and announced, in a written statement on August 21, that she is solidly behind the idea. The rest of the family is still adamantly against it. One Jackson family member says that it is a case of Jermaine disregarding what the rest of the family wants and doing what is best for himself. The same person belittled the Vienna tribute calling it “The Jermaine Jackson show”.
