Michael Jackson is doing it for the kids
MICHAEL JACKSON decided to go back on tour for the first time in 13 years to build a trust fund for his children, according to the organiser of his upcoming London concerts.
The Thriller hitmaker’s last major tour was in 1996 but he is set to return to the stage in July for a mammoth 50-date run in the British capital.
Internet gossips have long speculated about Jackson’s reasons for scheduling the shows, with many suggesting the singer is facing financial ruin.
But AEG Live president Randy Phillips, head of the company promoting the London concerts, is adamant Jackson’s three children are the main motivation behind the star’s comeback.
He says, "When I asked him why he was doing this tour now, he said it was because his kids are old enough to appreciate it and he still felt young enough to do it. He’s told me that whatever profit he makes from these shows will go into a trust fund for his children."
Jackson is dad to Prince, 12, Paris, 11, from his marriage to Debbie Rowe, and Prince Michael Jackson II, also known as Blanket, six, whose mother was an unnamed surrogate.

On June 2, 2009 at 10:46 pmMichael Jackson is full of shyt! He’s not doing it for the kids. He’s doing it because he’s being sued. When Michael was accused of child molestation and beat the case he left the United States to go live with the Prince of Bahrain. They struck a deal. Mike was to record music and write an autobiography. In return The Prince trusted him and gave him 7 million dollars. Mike never delivered. Instead he left Bahrain and came back to the United States. Now the Prince is suing him and HE HAS TO GO BACK TO WORK to pay The Prince back. Doing it for the kids my azz….
