Michael Jackson became the most popular person on Facebook in July 2009, following his sudden death June 25 of that year. But will that help a pay-per-view concert in his honor convince people to shell out cash to watch it?

Michael Forever: The Tribute Concert will take place at Millennium Stadium in Cardiff, Wales, October 8, with Jamie Foxx slated to host and scheduled performers including Beyoncé, Christina Aguilera, The Black Eyed Peas, Jennifer Hudson, and Smokey Robinson.

Facebook commerce outfit Milyoni teamed up with Ridgeline Entertainment for the event.
