Outrageous diva demands were the reason why Michael Jackson mysteriously missed last weekend’s Grammy Awards, it has been claimed. It was widely expected the Billie Jean star would perform at the event to mark the 25th anniversary of the release of his record-breaking album Thriller, but the New York Post reports his outrageous demands eventually led to producers to pulling the plug on his attendance. Sources claim Jackson demanded the whole evening’s ceremony be a celebration of him and his career, that they created a new award just for him and, best of all, that other guests and presenters would have to refer to him as the King Of Pop no fewer than 30 times during the night!
