Did any of you wonder why you didn’t see Chris Brown at the MJ tribute at the BET awards last night? Well according to bossip.com, Jay-Z threatened to pull out of the show if Chris stepped anywhere near the BET stage.

Here’s what they’re saying:

Chris had been rehearsing and everything and Jay-Z pulled the plug on him single-handedly because everyone (record label, execs, etc) gave BET the ok for Chris to perform. I know as a fan of Michael’s, I was disappointed because even though Chris is going through all that mess with Rhi-Rhi he is a great performer and he will never be Michael Jackson but he is the most like him right now.

I guess Jay couldn’t put aside the drama with Chris and Rihanna for one night.
