Michael Jackson to follow in Prince's footsteps and do an O2 residency



Michael Jackson is set to announce a string of dates on Thursday 5th March at London's O2 arena, to be played over the summer, in a similar way to which both Prince and the Spice Girls both did in 2007 and 2008.

Talks for the last 2 years have been circulating about the King Of Pop's return to the stage, with him said to be performing 10 dates in London at the O2, 10 at the Tokyo Dome and then 10 at the Staples Center in LA.

His last substantial series of concerts came in 1996 and '97, when he played 82 shows in 58 cities as part of the History tour.

The whole world will be looking to see if this comes true and even more so if he can pull of touring in such a fragile state. Also speculation is rife that a new album will coincide with the tour dates.
