Michael Jackson has decided to forgo an appearance on the Grammy Awards and appear instead on next Wednesday’s American Music Awards in order to fulfill a promise to the AMA’s producer, Dick Clark, the Boston Globe reported Friday.
In an interview with the Globe, Clark said, “Michael called me and said, ‘Yes, I am going to attend to pick up my [“Artist of the Century”] award, and I will not appear on the Grammys. I’m a man of my word.'”
Nevertheless, Clark said, he will continue to press his lawsuit against Michael Greene and the Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences, which had said that it would bar Jackson from appearing on the Grammys if he appeared on Clark‘s telecast.
