Kareena Kapoor was all geared up to attend this year's IIFA, but at the last moment she backed out! Reason? She wanted to spend some time with beau Saif Ali Khan. And the 'real' reason? Well, Bachchans were preferred over Bebo at the awards function.

And the result? Well, out nakhre wali Bebo decided to give IIFA a royal ignore.

Our queenie Kareena wanted to open and close the event with her performance, but it seems organisers had some other plans. They wanted the Bachchans to perform at least once, since Amitabh is the brand ambassador of the event.

Kareena was supposed to perform the Marjani song from Billu.

Conclusion? We missed a glam performace. But then the show must go on...
