WOW so the O2 rumours are true Got this in the new reports today:

Confirmed: Michael Jackson scheduled for comeback concert series


Confidential sources have confirmed to TicketNews that Michael Jackson will be performing live in a series of shows, possibly in 2009, which will be announced within a week. While the exact location and duration of the engagement are forthcoming, recent published reports have conjectured about a 30-show run in Las Vegas or London.

Talks of a Jackson comeback event have been brewing for the past year as the beleaguered star has battled various financial setbacks and explored new sources of income.

When private equity group Colony Capital purchased the loan on Jackson's Neverland Ranch in California last year, speculation surfaced that the company was looking in to various repayment options for the King of Pop -- including a series of live performances. The Los Angeles-based firm owns a number of casino and resort properties, including the Las Vegas Hilton.

According to the New York Daily Mail, insiders estimate an extended-stay concert series could net the performer as much as $215 million. His Neverland-related debt alone was approximated at $24.5 million prior to its sale to Colony Capital. In April, Jackson's estate is expected to auction off thousands of his possessions and collectibles during a five-day sale to help counter his debt.

In October 2008, Jackson dismissed that he was in talks with his siblings for a Jackson Five reunion tour. Despite denying the plans, Jackson did confirm in a statement at the time, "I am now in the studio developing new and exciting projects that I look forward to sharing with my fans in concert soon."
Most recently, Jackson has also confirmed plans to put some of his best known music on show on the Great White Way. A Broadway adaptation of "Thriller" is in works for a future staging. According to published reports, producer James L. Nederlander holds right to make and stage the musical, but a creative team has not yet been announced for the project.

Also from a poster on MJJC
MJ is now at the hotel. He wore all black and his 3 sons were with him. About 8 fans and dozens of paparazzi there.

[magic]

[jacksoniana88]

i'm soooo curious...

about the tour... a tour without new songs seams to me a bit useless.. ok, it's michael jackson, but it is a new tour!
i wait for the conference and then i can start to shout...

[magic]

I think it may be just few concerts. Maybe not exactly tour.

What I like the best is his spokesperson told Michael is in talks about concerts. And now we are seeing the result. His team has let ppl down for some time now. The singles, albums etc telling coming soon... Now finally something is happening and I am happy about that

I wonder if he has changed the team, not just spokesperson?

I saw this on sky news interactive this morning, when I first started reading it, I was haha, here we go again with this rumour... then they said he was actually going to be there and well, finally, they have some actual news on him instead of another rumour.

Jackson spokeswoman Celena Aponte said Tuesday the reports were speculation. But she said a special announcement about Jackson would be made Thursday at the venue.

Hence, the announcement is fully official, but the residency isnt yet
