New
York
(ANI):
Rapper
Jay-Z
thrashed
Chris
Brown's
hopes
of
returning
on
stage
at
the
BET
Awards,
in
a
bid
to
pay
tribute
to
late
King
of
Pop
Michael
Jackson.
Brown
has
been
low-key
since
beating
up
his
ex-girlfriend
(and
Jay-Z's
artist),
Rihanna,
earlier
this
year.
Apparently,
Brown
was
supposed
to
participate
in
the
Jacko
tribute
at
LA's
Shrine
Auditorium,
but
Jay-Z
pulled
the
plug
on
the
plans.
"Jay-Z
wasn't
having
it.
He
threatened
to
pull
out
of
the
show
if
Chris
was
involved,
so
BET
dropped
Chris," the
New
York
Post
quoted
a
source
as
saying.
A
representative
for
Brown
said:
"That's
not
true
--
he
was
never
confirmed
to
perform."
Brown
was
close
to
Jackson
and
performed
'Thriller' at
the
World
Music
Awards
in
2006.
