Overview
Two of Michael Jackson's brothers have criticised a tribute concert set to take place in Cardiff, which is backed by the late singer's mother.
Jermaine and Randy Jackson said the gig at the Millennium Stadium on October 8 was “inappropriate” and “ill-timed” because it will coincide with the trial of Dr Conrad Murrary, the physician charged over Jackson's death.
They added: "There will come a time and place for an amazing and deserving tribute to Michael.
“But we feel that the most important tribute we can give to our brother at this time is to seek justice in his name."
A host of stars are expected to take part in the tribute concert
The gig will be organised in conjunction with Global Live Events, with all proceeds going towards US and UK charities.
