Michael Jackson seriously thinks he can make $500 million if The Jackson 5 reform according to Dot Music. They plan on doing a World Tour that will end with 250 shows in Vegas. So how and why is it The Jackson 5 and not just Michael Jackson, well this what a source had to say about the reunion. "There was initially some concern about Michael's image, which has taken quite a battering with the child molestation allegations," the source explained. "There were also concerns over whether Michael would be keen on performing in front of a large audience after so long away from the stage. "After all, the last time he performed was at the World Music Awards in London–it was a very badly received performance. So a plan was hatched to get the rest of the family tied into a deal first. They were offered a deal to reform–for a much smaller payday–and were told that if they got Michael on board, the figure would skyrocket. "That's when the rest of the family got working on Michael–and it certainly seems to have worked." Look how hard it is to get Michael to commit to one day in Japan and they think they can get him to do a World Tour and 250 dates in Las Vegas. I would faster believe that The Police will tour again next year than The Jackson Five reunion tour actually happening. But I would go see them if they toured!

Variety is reporting that Janet Jackson will be starring in Tyler Perry's Why Did I get Married?. Filming begins March 5th in Vancouver with Jill Scott and Sharon Leal. The fourth film in Perry's lucrative franchise, "Why Did I Get Married" revolves around a couple who go away with friends every winter to examine their marriages in a group setting. One of the wives brings along a sexy young temptress who causes plenty of trouble for the couples. Obviously she will not be playing the sexy young temptress. BTW am I the only one who doesn't get Tyler Perry's appeal, I saw Diary of Mad Black Woman and thought what is the big deal about him?

It had to happen eventually: With no work coming his way, Michael Jackson, sources say, has agreed to do a tour with sister Janet and his brothers. I'm told that Michael reluctantly met with his siblings on Monday in Las Vegas. Sisters Janet and Rebbie, as well as Jermaine, Randy, Marlon, Tito and Jackie, all knocked on Jackson's Las Vegas door around 7:30 p.m. Nanny Grace Rwaramba, who runs the door, made them wait between 30 and 60 minutes before allowing the brood in. What was discussed was the family's financial situation and the fact that Jackson has so far been unable to get work in Vegas. Sources say concert promoter Leonard Rowe of Atlanta, who worked with the Jacksons in the 1980s, was there and made a proposal: a family tour with all members. A successful Jackson family tour could change all that for Michael. It would also be a financial boon to a family that needs cash in a hurry. Jackson recently took a new mortgage on his parents' home, and his own home — the Neverland Valley Ranch — is in hoc to the tune of $25 million. Jackson himself relies on cash from royalties on his own songs. But that only comes to a maximum of $7 million a year. As described in court testimony, Jackson could go through that kind of money in just a couple of weeks. The tour idea also works for Janet Jackson, whose last two albums have been huge duds. The idea of Michael and Janet performing a couple of duets, or Janet's brothers backing her on her own hits, would be a tantalizing notion to any promoter.

Wow! That would be amazing but I doubt it will ever happen.

Michael Jackson heading to Vegas? |

 Ending 18 months of seclusion in Europe, reclusive superstar Michael Jackson was on a plane to the United States late Saturday bound for Las Vegas, where he plans a comeback. Jackson and his three children, Prince Michael, Paris and Prince Michael II were due to arrive before midnight at a private executive terminal at McCarran International Airport, sources said. Advertisement Click Here for the Page Store We hear that Jackson’s friend, Las Vegas dealmaker Jack Wishna, was instrumental in having the pop icon move back to the United States. Reminiscent of Howard Hughes’ secretive arrival in Las Vegas on Thanksgiving Day in 1966, Jackson’s surprise move came after his father, Joe Jackson, vowed his son would not live in the United States again. The 48-year-old deposed King of Pop has lived in Bahrain and a Celtic castle in Ireland since being acquitted in California of child molestation charges in June 2005. Wishna, reached by telephone, wouldn’t comment, other than to confirm Jackson was moving to Las Vegas and to say, "We are working on several projects." Jackson has had more than a dozen No. 1 hits on the U.S. charts, the last in 1995. He has not toured since the mid-1990s. Wishna wouldn’t say where Jackson might land on the Strip. Wishna made headlines during Jackson’s trial when he courted the entertainer, saying a Jackson comeback would earn a Celine Dion-like contract in Las Vegas. Calling Jackson "one of the greatest entertainers in the world," Wishna said the singer "is poised to return to the top of the entertainment world soon."
