Jennifer Hudson a No-Show at MJ Tribute?

It seems the "Forever Michael" tribute to the fallen singer in Cardiff, Wales, has encountered all kinds of problems. First, The Black Eyed Peas featuring Fergie had to cancel their scheduled appearance due to "conflicts", then Chris Brown had to cancel because he couldn't secure a visa for entry into the UK due to his domestic battery conviction against ex-girlfriend Rihanna. Now, Perez Hilton has breaking news that Jennifer Hudson, who was on the roster of performers to appear, ditched at the last minute! The producers of the spectacular didn't have a clue she was not going to perform and had [allegedly] already paid her for her appearance! Oh, no... sounds like someone will need to get all lawyer-ed up, fast!

Trouble for Michael Jackson Tribute Show

With less than 24 hours before the Michael Jackson tribute concert is set to begin in Cardiff, Wales, the event is experiencing some last minute set-backs. First, top star draws The Black Eyed Peas had to pull out for "unavoidable circumstances".

On top of that, another scheduled headlining performer, Chris Brown, has also had to cancel his appearance. It seems he is having trouble gaining entry into the UK following his arrest and conviction resulting from his assault on superstar ex-girlfriend Rihanna.

There was more bad news when Facebook decided it would cancel plans to stream the concert tribute online due to international rights issues. The "Michael Forever" concert was scheduled for 10AM PST and viewers would have to pay $4-5 to watch the entire concert online.

Despite all the bad news, there are plenty of remaining exciting acts still on the roster, including Beyonce, Jennifer Hudson, Cee Lo Green, Smokey Robinson, Christina Aguilera and Leona Lewis.
