Black Eyed Peas Join Latoya For MJ Tribute; Latoya Comments On Trial

Latoya Jackson has not graced the stage in over 20 years, but she will make the appearance for her deceased brother.
"I have put musical performance behind me for roughly two decades, but there will never be another magical moment such as this to celebrate Michael with his fans to perpetuate the importance of his legacy," LaToya Jackson said. "I am honored to share the stage with the incredible performers in this line up and am certain that nothing would make my brother smile bigger or brighter than this tribute concert. In speaking with my mother yesterday, I asked her where she thinks Michael would rather have us be, in this courtroom filled with negativity and lies or on a stage celebrating his music, his legacy and his life and she said without a second of thought, 'Celebrating his Life with family and fans. I am looking forward to putting on a great show and making my brother proud.'"
The "Michael Forever Tribute" is being produced to honor the life oft Michael Jackson, who died from a drug overdose on June 25th, 2009.
His doctor, Conrad Murray, is currently on trial for involuntary manslaughter for the death.
Dr. Conray Murray faces a maximum of 4 years in prison if convicted of the charges against him.
