MJ's Vienna Tribute -- Another One Bites the Dust

We're not sure what the hell Jermaine Jackson was thinking when he announced the lineup for the Vienna tribute concert for Michael -- because Natalie Cole isn't gonna be there either.



Cole's rep tells us the singer definitely won't show at the tribute because she's set to attend an event with the Dalai Lama in Memphis around the same time Jermaine told the world she'd be in Vienna.

Jermaine also said Chris Brown and Mary J. Blige were going to perform -- but they've also denied being involved with the event.

Meanwhile, all three stars are still prominently displayed on the tribute's website.

Ricci Knows the Rules of Pap Engagement

Christina Ricci's been in the business long enough to understand how the paparazzi work -- yesterday telling her friend photogs shoot lots of footage just in case someone falls or says something stupid. Ricci unfortunately did neither. Boo!


Also looking good, but otherwise doing little, were Eva Longoria, Courteney Cox Arquette, Rebecca Gayheart (with hot hubby Eric Dane) and "Heroes" star Zachary Quinto. Debbie Gibson teeter-tottered going down the stairs -- but assured TMZ she doesn't drink, while Natalie Cole couldn't get her drink on at Il Sole because they were too full to let her in.

All this and more in today's Wednesday Addams version of Star Catcher.
