London, Oct 8 (IANS) Michael Jackson’s family wants to organise annual tribute concerts for the late pop legend.
A tribute to the late “Beat It” star, Michael Forever, will be held at Millennium Stadium in Cardiff Saturday with stars like Christina Aguilera, Cee Lo Green and Smokey Robinson among others performing.
His brother, Tito, wants to make it an annual event.
“Hopefully we can do this every year to remember his legacy, that’s something that we enjoy doing,” femalefirst.co.uk quoted him as saying.
Tito and other members of Michael’s family band, The Jackson 5, are set to perform during the course of the evening. Tito also talked about how he feels Michael would want his legacy to be remembered.
“People ask, ‘What do you think Michael represented when he was here on earth?’ and my first answer is not music but his heart, what he did for people, how he tried to change the world and make the world a better place,” he said.
