"Michael was really pissed," an insider reports. "It was one of the worst things ever. Artists were pissed. Labels were pissed. Everyone! This will never air in the U.S."
After a short introduction by Beyonce, Michael Jackson took the stage to receive a lifetime achievement award. He told the audience "I love you. God has answered my prayers ... Thriller has become the biggest-selling album of all time, with 140 million sold. I love all the fans from the bottom of my heart. I love England." Then without another word Michael Jackson walked off the stage reports MediaTakeout.
But the disappointed fans weren't about to let him leave without performing. They started chanting for Jackson to return to the stage and perform.
Mediatakeout reports Chris Brown tried in vein to mimic the dance moves of Michael Jackson. And that wasn't the worst part. Brown kept forgetting the words to Thriller. Some fans laughed, some booed, and some stood in amazement - but all were disappointed.
R&B singer Rihanna followed the Jackson drama came out to perform. But by this time the crowd was restless. They booed Rihanna so relentlessly, that she became visibly shaken. One concertgoer told MediaTakeOut.com, "I saw the look on her face, she looked like she was about to cry."
Before the fans turned into raving hooligans, Rihanna abruptly ended her performance and was quickly shuffled off the stage.
Rihanna and Beyonce also put to rest any reports that they're feuding. Beyonce's boyfriend, Jay-Z, has been plagued by rumors that he cheated on his Dreamgirl with Rihanna. "Rihanna and Beyonce were chatting backstage," Eonline's source says. "They couldn't have been friendlier. Rihanna just doesn't understand where those rumors came from."

EXCUSE ME? I want whoever reads this to know that this article is complete rubbish. I was at the show and NONE of what the article sid happened at all. Are we talking about the same show? I seriously doubt it! 1. that was NOT michael's speech, he didn't say any of that crap whatsoever! 2. Chris Brown was good, he did not forget any words and he was not booed. The only person booed was Rianna but only coz we wanted mj to perform. whoever wrote this article should be thoroughly ashamed of themselves.

the hole event was crap, the show was running so behind, i was waiting outside till 7:43pm.
Show started after 8pm,it was so rushed and crap. The best thing was to see mj, even if they did cut his show off because it went over 11pm. there wxnkers they made him look like a fool. He is not. Facts: he was NOT booed of stage at any point, he can still sing, his mic was cut off and his music was then cut. HE WILL BE BACK!!!!
