Let’s face it, we all had a sneaky suspicion that Michael Jackson’s comeback was going to be too good to be true, and now it looks like the ‘This Is It Tour’ could be thrown into jeopardy.
Okay, so it isn’t that bad, he’s just pushing back his opening night by four days but that actually means that those people who booked tickets for the opening week of the tour will now have to wait another nine months before they get to see him frolicking around on the stage, and by then, he will probably be old news, or even worse, six feet under.
Now I know that’s not the nicest thing to say, but come on, take a look at the wacko, I can hardly see him prancing around the O2 Arena night after night when he looks older than my grandma, I mean, I know surgery works for barbie doll Katie Price, but I’m sure Mr Jackson never wanted to look like a toy… or maybe he did. Hum.
The tour will now start on July 13 so that the Thriller star has more time to rehearse, erm, come on Jacko, you’ve been doing this about a million years now, I’m sure you’ve got the moonwalk down to a fine art by now!
Full refunds are being offered to fans who cannot make the rearranged concerts which are;
8th July will take place on 13th July 2009
10th July will be moved to 1st March 2010
12th July will be moved to 3rd March 2010
14th July will be moved to 6th March 2010
So, Jacko fans, what do you think? Is he too old for this ‘king of pop’ malarkey now, and more importantly, who thinks he will actually perform every night on his comeback tour?

wow… you’re such a great journalist!! or blogger!!
MJ looks handsome in his recent pics but fragile though. i have doubts too but its just because he is frail. He looks handsome in recent pics!! you chose to post his most unflattering pics when he has thousands better pics especially the most recent ones he looks charming and attractive.
he is not too old lol…tina turner is about 70ish and she still touring!!! and they said he is in perfectly good health and does not have skin cancer…he took a fitness test for the premoters and passed with flying colours!
ok im gutted that i have to w8 till next year now to see him but going by what the o2 site said …..
”Due to the sheer magnitude of the “This Is It” concerts at The O2 arena promoters and producers AEG Live and Kenny Ortega, Michael’s directorial partner and creative collaborator have elected to move back a few of the opening shows in order to meet the challenges presented by such a massive and technically complex show.”
has made me want to see it even more…we know its gunna be the best show ever! id rather w8 10 months to see him perform at his best rather than a rushed put together show! wouldnt you?
He is only going to be dancing 10-15 minutes a night, with the bulk of the night filled with the other dancers dancing around. Probably starting to realize he is going to disappoint alot of people this way….
@dora : that is no way the worst photo of jacko! That is a normal one, that is what he looks like!
