Lest anyone think he's shamelessly cashing in on Amy's memory, money from the pay-per-view gig would go to the Amy Winehouse Foundation, a charity the songstress' family started for troubled youngsters.
"Big artists will be booked from both sides of the Atlantic so people will want to see it," a source told the U.K. newspaper. "It will be a huge event."
While nothing is official, new mom Lily Allen said earlier this week that she would be "honored" to end her hiatus by playing such a show, the NME reports. Mark Ronson, Florence and the Machine and Jessie J are also rumored to be involved.
Great -- now can someone loan us a few quid?
