据说这个盛会会有一个超级神秘贵宾 （当然不一定非得是MJ）
GOD，让这个谣言成真吧！！
thanks MJJ16 from MJNO
apparently there was a press release stating David Gest, the producer of the Smokey Robinson event, said there was a very huge surprise guest.
Lionel Richie and James Brown were supposedly at the Dorchester this Saturday and MIGHT attend the event Gest is producing.
still looking for links and realiable sources.
EDIT some more info on the event Michael MIGHT attend since he and Smokey are very good friends.

LEGENDARY HOLLYWOOD FILM ICON JANE RUSSELL, who will turn 85 this year, will make a rare London appearance to introduce Gest. According to Russell, "David is family and I am traveling by boat just to be in London to introduce him that night. I am delighted to be part of this event and I have always been a huge fan of Smokey Robinson. I can't wait to hear him sing!" Also introducing Gest will be his longtime friend, legendary "Downtown" pop star PETULA CLARK C.B.E.
Gest has produced more than 100 shows throughout the world and received numerous awards for his productions. He is also responsible for producing the highest-rated musical special in American television history. "Michael Jackson: 30th Anniversary Celebration". The show was seen by more than 44 million people, one in every four households and also broke records in 10 other countries. In 2002, he produced the SRO Comeback Tour of Liza Minnelli in "Liza's Back" which ran for seven nights at the Royal Albert Hall and received rave reviews from critics.
Following the performance by Robinson, guests will receive a rare treat for their dancing pleasure. FREDA PAYNE is flying in from Los Angeles to perform "Band Of Gold" and "Bring The Boys Home"; DENIECE WILLIAMS, also flying in from Los Angeles, will perform "Let's Hear It For The Boy," "Free," "That's What Friends Are For," and "It's Gonna Take A Miracle"; CANDI STATON, flying in from Atlanta, will perform her recent Top 10 pop hit "You Got The Love" as well as her classics "Young Hearts Run Free" and "Suspicious Minds" and BONNIE TYLER will fly in from Germany (where she is promoting her new CD) to perform "It's A Heartache," "Total Eclipse Of The Heart" and "I Need A Hero." According to Gest, "There are many more surprises in store for the evening! There will also be guests ranging from cast members of 'Coronation Street' and 'EastEnders' to top recording artists, models as well as movie, television and sports stars of all generations. I am really looking forward to returning to London, seeing so many of my friends and producing the 'SMOKEY ROBINSON: 50TH ANNIVERSARY ALL-STAR SALUTE' concerts." |
