The 'David Gest Is Not Dead But Alive With Soul Tour' is to go ahead in tribute to the late star.
In the weeks before his shock death at the age of 62 on April 12, David had been busy organising a spectacular soul tour of the UK which was to feature performances from music legends Russell Thompkins Jr, Deniece Williams, Peabo Bryson, The Tymes, Freda Payne, Melba Moore, Anita Ward, Fern Kinney and Billy Paul - who passed away at his home in Blackwood, New Jersey, on 24 April at the age of 81.
There will musical tributes to David - who was life-long pals with Michael Jackson - with The Tymes performing his favourite ever song 'Ms. Grace' and Peabo will deliver a rendition of his track 'Missing You' for his late friend.
Following the sad news of 'Me and Mrs Jones' singer Billy's death, there are plans in place to remember him with a performance by the acts on the bill.
