Madonna among possible high-profile singers to perform in place of pop star
Madonna may perform Jackson songs
June 27: Madonna may be one of many celebrities who could take part in a one-time tribute to Michael Jackson by replicating his scheduled summer concert set. Msnbc.com’s Courtney Hazlett reports.
The show will go on for Michael Jackson’s “This Is It” tour.
The announcement was made at a June 26 memorial gathering for Jackson, held by the tour’s cast and crew.
According to a tour organizer, one performance will now be held in September and will be a replica of what was planned for “This Is It” in London.
High-profile singers are expected to perform in place of Jackson. Among them, possibly Madonna, who was expected to appear at one of Jackson’s shows in London. A firm decision has not been made as to where the tribute concert will take place, but it’s likely to be in Los Angeles.
