A star-studded Michael Jackson tribute concert has been cancelled.
Though the show was set to take place at London's Wembley Stadium next June, the company who were behind the concert - World Awards Media - have gone into liquidation.
Originally due to happen at Vienna's Schönbrunn Castle in September, the show was postponed and moved to London, after a number of high-profile acts pulled out.
Organised by Michael's brother Jermaine, it is not yet known if he will look to reschedule the show with a different promoter.
