Fan Manager is not be working and haven't signed anything with MJ Estate. The only connection Fan Manager has with this project is that the person working there also works in Online Team. Looks like Michael Jackson Blog just misunderstood the info after doing their own research.
The person also haven't heard anything about Immortal World Tour although didn't say it's not true.
They will release important announcement on November 3rd.

LAS VEGAS – Cirque du Soleil wants to recreate Michael Jackson's Neverland Ranch in Sin City.
The Mandalay Bay hotel-casino on the Las Vegas Strip plans to open a sprawling entertainment complex that includes a Jackson-themed lounge, an interactive memorabilia museum and a theater designed to replicate the iconic refuge of the deceased musical legend, Cirque du Soleil president Daniel Lamarre said Wednesday.
"This place, Mandalay Bay, is going to become the home of Michael Jackson in many, many ways," he said at an announcement at the casino attended by Jackson's older brother, Jackie.
John Branca, co-executor of Michael Jackson's estate, said the attraction will offer fans a permanent place to celebrate, as well as give them the opportunity to see some of the objects displayed at Neverland Ranch.
"Very few fans would ever get to visit Michael's Neverland Ranch because of its remote location," he said.
Plans for the Las Vegas lodestone, set to open in 2013, are part of the budding business relationship between the acrobatic troupe and the pop star's estate.
Cirque du Soleil's homage to Jackson kicks off in October, with the most expensive show in the French company's history. The $57 million "Michael Jackson, The Immortal World Tour" will open in Montreal and hit 30 cities including New York, Miami, Philadelphia, Los Angeles and Las Vegas.
The tour's Las Vegas stop at Mandalay Bay will kick off with a fan convention in December as a preview to the permanent Jackson attraction.
Concept art for the touring show's set prominently features a massive tree symbolic of a favorite oak that was outside Jackson's Neverland bedroom. The singer nicknamed it the Giving Tree and had a perch built atop it where he wrote music and sometimes slept.
For Jackson's "Thriller," tombstones overwhelm the set in a nod to the music video's horror-film motif and gyrating zombies.
Excerpts from Jackson's music videos will be part of the 90-minute show, with no specific performer representing Jackson. "Immortal" will also feature as-yet-unreleased songs that Jackson finished before his death in 2009.
The tour then goes to Europe, Lamarre said, while Cirque producers open a more intimate, theatrical show at the new Las Vegas theater.
Jackson's estate and Cirque will each own 50 percent of both projects and share equally in the cost of putting on the productions.
Tour director Jamie King said he searched for acrobats, dancers and musicians from across the world who could capture Jackson's spirit and showmanship.
"I feel like I am not doing it alone, I feel like I am doing it with Michael as my co-director all the way," said King, who has directed concert tours for Madonna, Rihanna and Celine Dion and is a former Jackson back-up dancer.
Jackson admired the Canadian troupe's work and attended Cirque shows in Los Angeles and Las Vegas. His support, Lamarre said, helped build the company.
Cirque du Soleil has since become as ubiquitous on the Las Vegas Strip as all-you-can-eat buffets or buzzing slot machines, with shows in recent years honoring Elvis Presley, Celine Dion and the Beatles.
Mandalay Bay, long home to Disney's The Lion King musical, has never hosted a Cirque show before.
Mandalay Bay President Chuck Bowling said the Jackson attraction will strengthen the casino's financial health in future years.
The theatrical performance will take over The Lion King stage when that show closes in December, and some venues in the casino will have to be relocated to accommodate the mega attraction.
Lamarre said the changes will be permanent.
"The tradition here is our shows last forever," he said.

LOS ANGELES (AFP) – Cirque du Soleil and Michael Jackson's estate unveiled plans Wednesday for a permanent show honoring the pop icon at a Las Vegas casino resort, including items from his Neverland Ranch.
While the permanent show won't open until early 2013, the dance company will also bring its Michael Jackson "The Immortal" world tour to the US gambling mecca's Mandalay Bay resort and casino this December, they said.
"We are excited about creating this new Michael Jackson production for Mandalay Bay. Michael Jackson is creatively inspiring for Cirque du Soleil artisans and creative teams," said Cirque du Soleil boss Daniel Lamarre.
The executors of the late King of Pop's estate have agreed to an official Michael Jackson Fan Fest opening at the same time as the tour shows in Las Vegas, the first such officially-endorsed project since he died in June 2009.
"We are thrilled to establish Michael?s home away from home at Mandalay Bay," said John Branca and John McClain.
"Because of its remote location, few people will ever get to visit Michael?s Neverland Ranch. But millions of Michael?s fans will be able to hear Michael?s music and experience him in tangible and exciting new ways," they added.
The "Immortal" world tour opens in Montreal in October and has dates scheduled through until next July in Canada and the United States, including 10 dates in Las Vegas from December 3-14.
The permanent Jackson exhibition, to open in the spring of 2013, will include a Michael Jackson Lounge, described as "a space that will bring to life
Michael?s music in an atmosphere celebrating his career and legacy."
"The world may never again know a force in entertainment of the caliber of Michael Jackson.
"We are deeply honored and humbled to be home to incredible entertainment celebrating his legacy for new generations to come," said Mandalay Bay boss Chuck Bowling.
The Montreal-based contemporary circus troupe has previous experience tackling the artistic legacy of major musical stars like Jackson, whose "Thriller" album was the best-selling in history.
Cirque du Soleil honored Elvis with their "Viva Elvis" production and worked with surviving members of the Beatles and the wives of John Lennon and George Harrison to produce "Love," featuring hits from the British band's catalogue.
Jackson died suddenly on June 25, 2009 at his rented mansion in Los Angeles after an overdose of powerful prescription drugs, as he was preparing to perform a series of comeback concerts in London.

Attention MJ Fans! There will be a permanent Michael Jackson production at Mandalay Bay beginning in 2013. In addition, the Michael Jackson The IMMORTAL World Tour will stop at the Mandalay Bay for an extended run beginning December 3 and will include the first ever Estate-authorized Michael Jackson Fan Fest!
THE MICHAEL JACKSON FAN FEST
To kick-off the tour stop in Las Vegas, fans will have the chance to experience the legacy of Michael Jackson in a whole new way during the first Michael Jackson Fan Fest taking place for a limited time only at Mandalay Bay beginning December 3, 2011. This experience is expected to include a wide variety of elements such as an up-close look at Michael Jackson memorabilia, items from Neverland Ranch, photo opportunities in recreated sets from historic Michael Jackson videos, a behind-the-scenes look at the creation of Michael Jackson The IMMORTAL World Tour, a main stage featuring contests, Q&A sessions with members of the creative team from Michael Jackson The IMMORTAL World Tour as well as other associates of Michael Jackson, giveaways and more. In addition, the Fan Fest will give attendees the chance to compete against one another in contests centered around the recently released UBISOFT video game "Michael Jackson The Experience."
An interactive, engaging, and immersive design will create a larger-than-life environment for all Fan Fest goers and promises to be a unique event. The Fan Fest will be open for 4 hours before Michael Jackson The IMMORTAL World Tour shows on December 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 13, and 14 in Mandalay Bay’s Bayside Exhibit Halls.

MICHAEL JACKSON ALL ACCESS
Mandalay Bay also will be the permanent home of a creative collaboration from The Estate of Michael Jackson and Cirque du Soleil aimed at giving fans a unique encounter with Michael’s artistic genius, sense of wonder and humanitarian spirit. Just as Michael Jackson The IMMORTAL World Tour and the newly announced permanent show at Mandalay Bay will open the eyes and ears of the world to experiencing Michael’s music in a whole new way, this permanent exhibit will take fans, new and old, on a journey to the next level by giving them the opportunity to access Michael Jackson – the consummate performer, the philanthropist and the person – in entirely new ways, in part using the most state-of-the-art interactive technology. This experience is expected to spark memories, inspire hope and help us discover new things about Michael and ourselves, engaging minds and inspiring hearts.
MICHAEL JACKSON LOUNGE
