Michael Jackson May Not Do 50 Shows as Planned

Michael Jackson has already upset fans when it was announced he pushed back his July 8 opening performance five days. Some of those dates will now be scheduled for March. Michael is also making fans uneasy about his commitment to do the full 50 shows when he said to fans today who were waiting outside Burbank Studios where Michael was practicing his dance moves:

"Thank you for your love and support, I want you guys to know I love you very much."

"I don’t know how I’m going to do 50 shows. I’m not a big eater, I need to put some weight on."

"I’m really angry with them booking me up to do 50 shows. I only wanted to do 10, and take the tour around the world to other cities, not 50 in one place."

"I went to bed knowing I sold 10 dates, and woke up to the news I was booked to do 50."

Michael says he wanted to do 10 shows at the 02 arena, and do the remaining shows in other countries. After the first 10 shows sold out, another 40 shows were added, and also sold out. We’ve known about the 50 shows since before Michael made his first in person public announcement to do the shows, but Michael now claims he just learned about all the shows this morning. Michael always has an excuse to get out of work, and contracts, which is why he could get sued for this set of gigs, as he is also facing a lawsuit for agreeing by word of mouth to do a family comeback show with the Jackson five, but may not do it.

Michael also has his rumored skin cancer to worry about, and another rumor that his nose might fall off, like it isn’t wired on already.
