全球35家MJ歌迷会联合声明
代表全球迈克尔·杰克逊歌迷
致环球现场盛事公司的公开信
迈克尔杰克逊中文网(MJJCN.com)与全球歌迷同仇敌忾
亲爱的克里斯·亨特先生和保罗·林先生:
我们,作为迈克尔·杰克逊忠诚的支持者和拥护者,拒绝支持由环球现场盛事公司在2011年10月举办的“永远的迈克尔”致敬演唱会。尽管你们把最新加入的表演者,KISS乐队的吉恩·西蒙斯撤掉了,但歌迷们觉得伤害业已造成。你们的致歉微不足道、姗姗来迟,无法解决我们对这次致敬的不满。
自从最初的通告,通过歌迷网站、论坛和Facebook专页(Fans Against Michael Forever Tribute),歌迷已经表达了他们对这次致敬的担忧。最初的担忧之一是歌迷在“永远的迈克尔”致敬的Facebook专页上是被如何对待的。管理人员粗暴地删除了评论。因此,当通告说环球现场盛事公司“倾听歌迷”对加入西蒙斯的看法时,许多歌迷已充满怀疑。歌迷相信,环球现场盛事公司是为了安抚媒体和遗产管理委员会的顾虑,因此撤掉了对西蒙斯的邀请。简单来说,环球现场盛事公司担心的不是歌迷,而是负面的媒体报道,这会反过来影响到门票的销售。
从这次致敬的时间安排(莫里医生审判期间),到票价,到对哪些慈善机构会收到捐款的含糊其辞,再到无法保证演出人员出席的政策,于是吉恩·西蒙斯这种侮辱性人物的加入和对迈克尔·杰克逊遗产的玷污,简单来说就是压垮骆驼的最后一根稻草。鉴于伤害业已造成,歌迷将努力战胜这场对迈克尔·杰克逊遗产的灾难。
请理解这次致敬现在已注定将要失败。迈克尔·杰克逊遗产管理委员会的律师已经给你们写信表达了他们的忧虑,现在迈克尔·杰克逊的歌迷群体也一样。为迈克尔·杰克逊做点正确的事吧,取消这次致敬。
真诚的,

Open Letter on Behalf of Michael Jackson fans to Global Live Events:
Dear Messrs. Chris Hunt and Paul Ring:
We, as Michael Jackson's staunch supporters and advocates, refuse to support the Michael Forever Tribute, planned by Global Live Events in October, 2011. Even with the withdrawal of your most recent performer, Gene Simmons/ Kiss, fans feel the damage has already been done. Your apology is too little, too late and does not solve the problems we have with this tribute.
Since the initial announcement, through fan sites and forums and a Facebook page (Fans Against Michael Forever Tribute) fans have voiced their concerns about this tribute. One of the initial concerns was how fans were treated on the Michael Forever Tribute Facebook page. The administrators were rude and deleted comments. Therefore, when the announcement was made that Global Live Events "listened to fans" regarding the addition of Simmons, many fans are doubtful. Fans believe that Global Live Events, in an attempt to qualm the media and the Estate, rescinded their offer to Simmons. Simply put, it is not the fans that Global Live Events is concerned with, but negative media coverage, which in turn affects ticket sales.
From the timing of this tribute, in the middle of Dr. Murray's trial, to the ticketing prices, to the obscurity over what charities will be receiving the donation, to the no-guarantee policy of performers, the addition of Gene Simmons and dishonoring, thus tarnishing Michael Jackson's legacy was simply the last straw. With the damage done, it will be the fans who work hard to overcome this debacle for Michael Jackson's legacy.
Please understand that this tribute is doomed to fail now. Attorneys for the Michael Jackson Estate have written to you about their concerns, and now the Michael Jackson fan base has done the same. Do the right thing for Michael Jackson, and cancel this tribute.
Sincerely,
MJJCommunity, MJJForum, M.J.A.N, United4MJLegacy, MJ4Justice, MJFrance, Legendary MJ , MJ: And Justice for Some, Muzikfactory, Australia Salutes MJ, MJ Down Under, MJHellas.gr, MJTurkFan, Truth 4 MJ, MJ Portugal / Espana Fans, MJ Fans for Love& Justice, MJ The Legend Russia, MJJCN MJ Chinese Fanclub, Tributo MJ, MJ Memorial Munich, MJ’s Legacy Association Int., MJ’s Neverland, All4Love, MJVIBE, Iconic, MJ Stranger in Moscow , X Pages, MJ Fans Ireland, MJPortal , Positively Michael, MJ Polish Team, MJ Place w/ No Name, MJ’s Hideout, Complottisti in avanzata, Clear MJ’s name.
