14 DAY TRIAL // Amidst speculation that his health is taking a turn for the worse, Michael Jackson is set to make his comeback on the music scene no later than this summer. Organizers are telling the British media that the star will hold a series of concerts at London’s O2 Arena in what will be one of the most impressive comebacks the industry has ever witnessed.
While it is not yet known for how long Michael will perform, reports have it that he stands to make as much as £1.5 million for a single night. Moreover, organizers are hopeful that the King of Pop still has what it takes to sell all tickets for every night because the concerts will be truly an unforgettable experience for fans all over the world. The only thing that is still pending is announcing the dates, sources say, as all the details have already been taken care of.
“It will be the greatest comeback in the history of pop and there would be no problem selling out the O2 every night. No one is concerned about his reputation and people don’t feel it is a risk. Organizers are confident people will come from all over the world to see him. There have been rumors about his health but that is not an issue. He is capable of doing all the shows. Bringing a star like Michael Jackson to the O2 is not simple. But things have really progressed and it is on the verge of being tied up.” one source within AEGLive, the organizers of the concert, is telling the Daily Mail.
Apparently, prices for ticket will top £500 which is, so far, the highest price asked for a live performance by Barbara Streisand. But the price will not be an impediment for fans, it is being said, since such a comeback is more than overdue. Choosing the UK for it was more a choice of practicality than of anything else, the same reports have it, since Michael’s popularity in Europe far outdoes that he enjoys in the US.
Just recently, word had it that Michael Jackson was being treated by doctors in the US for a very severe infection that was described in the media as “flesh eating.” “Michael Jackson has a severe staph infection that he contracted during work to reconstruct his nose. The infection has spread throughout his face and body and is being aggressively treated by doctors. There’s a chance it could turn into a flesh-eating disorder where it begins to kill off his skin so he’s being very carefully monitored.” a spy told The Sun tabloid a while back.
