Jackson’s Prince to make Surprise Appearance? [RUMOR]

“This Is It,” Michael Jackson’s much expected and, some say, overdue comeback to the music scene, kicks off this July at London’s O2 Arena. There will be no less than 50 shows, for which all tickets have been completely sold out in the first days they went on sale, with speculation that the tour might extend to the US as well. Given the magnitude of the event, it’s no wonder that fans want to know some of the details of the performances beforehand.

Sources from the organizers, as well as from Michael’s entourage, are here to share with the media some of the “secret” surprises the King of Pop is currently preparing. According to the Daily Mail, one such surprise would be a cameo from none other than Jackson’s eldest son, Prince, who will reportedly be sharing the stage with his father and sing for the first time ever.

Michael Jackson press conferenceMSNBC’s Courtney Hazlett talking about checking her Twitter page and getting comment after comment supporting Michael Jackson’s upcoming live performances.

Apparently they were hearing a lot of feedback from people who didn’t like the stank-attitude of Countessa Brewer and some of the other female hosts during their previous on-air allegedly “witty banter” about the subject MJ.

Despite continued misnformation which was repeated today by many tv anchors, believe it or not, the following vid was one of the ‘better’ (if you can call it that) exchanges on MSNBC.
