Chris Brown did not take to the stage at Sunday night’s 2022 American Music Awards, but that didn’t stop the star from being the most talked about aspect of the evening.
C. Breezy made headlines when he revealed that a planned tribute performance saluting the 40th anniversary of Michael Jackson‘s ‘Thriller’ album was “scrapped for reasons unknown.”
With fans equally downtrodden by the news (especially in light of Ciara shared she too was set to join Brown on-stage), a rep for the AMAs has shed light on the reason the plug was pulled.

In a statement to Entertainment Tonight, a spokesperson for DCP (who produce the show) explained:
“Live shows change all the time, it’s the nature of this business; unfortunately, this element of the AMAs didn’t come together as we couldn’t align on the performance, to no fault of Chris Brown.”
Sigh.
In any case, peep the rehearsal footage of what was set to be a spectacle for history books:
