Michael Jackson may be gone, but he's certainly not forgotten. The King of Pop's three children -- Prince, 14, Paris, 13, and Blanket, 9 -- paid tribute to their late father at the Michael Forever concert in Cardiff, Wales Saturday.
"We're very happy to be here on this special night to honor our father," said Paris, who wore a replica of her father's famous red and black leather jacket from his "Thriller" music video.
Several performers took to the glove-shaped stage, includingChristina Aguilera, Leona Lewis and Cee Lo Green. TheBlack Eyed Peas pulled out of the lineup earlier this week citing "unavoidable circumstances."

Despite the current manslaughter trial involving Jackson's former doctor, Conrad Murray, the evening's performers chose to ignore the court case and focus on the singer's musical legacy.
It's not about the controversy," Ne-Yo, who kicked off the show with a rendition of "Billie Jean," said. "It's not about the trial. It's not about his death. It's about celebrating his life. It's about celebrating his music."
Other performers included Jennifer Hudson, LaToya Jackson,Gladys Knight, Pixie Lott, 3T, Alexandra Burke, Alien Ant Farm, Craig David, Diversity, JLS and Smokey Robinson.Beyonce Knowles, 30, also performed via satellite video. More than 50,000 people attended the tribute concert, which was hosted by Fearne Cotton and Jamie Foxx.
Jackson died in June 2009 as he was preparing for a series of comeback concerts in London. Murray is accused of giving Jackson a lethal dose of the anesthetic propofol in the hours leading up to his death.

Apple founder and iPhone inventor Steve Jobs dies at 56:




Steve Jobs, the Apple founder and former CEO who invented and masterfully marketed ever-sleeker gadgets that transformed everyday technology, from the personal computer to the iPod and iPhone, has died. He was 56.
Apple announced his death Wednesday without giving a specific cause.
"We are deeply saddened to announce that Steve Jobs passed away today," the company said in a brief statement.
"Steve's brilliance, passion and energy were the source of countless innovations that enrich and improve all of our lives. The world is immeasurably better because of Steve"
Jobs had battled cancer in 2004 and underwent a liver transplant in 2009 after taking a leave of absence for unspecified health problems. He took another leave of absence in January - his third since his health problems began - before resigning as CEO six weeks ago. Jobs became Apple's chairman and handed the CEO job over to his hand-picked successor, Tim Cook.
The news Apple fans and shareholders had been dreading came the day after Apple unveiled its latest version of the iPhone, just one in a procession of devices that shaped technology and society while Jobs was running the company.

Royal wedding honeymoon: William and Kate postpone honeymoon - Telegraph



Prince William and Kate delay foreign honeymoon as Prince William returns to work next week after bank holiday break in Britain.



Prince William and his new wife Kate Middleton have decided not to depart for their honeymoon immediately and have instead opted to spend the weekend in the UK, St James's Palace announced today.
It had been thought that the new Duke and Duchess of Cambridge would take two weeks off for the traditional post royal wedding break.
But it appears they want some private time in familiar surroundings after one of the most important days in their life saw their marriage celebrated by the nation and beyond.
They will probably travel to the Queen's Balmoral Estate in Scotland, which will afford them privacy and stunning countryside in which to unwind.
They left Buckingham Palace this morning like a couple very much in love, walking hand in hand to a waiting helicopter which flew them off for their secret weekend break.
Before they boarded the aircraft, palace staff had carried out some of their luggage, which included a bouquet of white blooms.
A St James's Palace spokesman said: "The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have chosen not to depart for a honeymoon immediately.
"Instead, after spending the weekend privately in the United Kingdom, the Duke will return to work as a search and rescue pilot next week.
"The locations of both their private weekend before the Duke returns to work and their future honeymoon, which will be overseas, will not be disclosed in advance."
St James's Palace stressed that the couple had asked that the media respect their privacy over the weekend and during their holiday.
Speculation had been mounting about where the couple could spend their time away together.
They had been expected to travel either to somewhere in Africa, perhaps Kenya where Prince William proposed, or possibly Jordan where Kate spent two years as a child.
There were reports that the couple had booked a tailor made private tour of southern Jordan, including a visit to the ancient city of Petra.
