Fans To Create New Michael Jackson Video - Behind The Mask


 Michael Jackson fans are invited to participate in the making of a new video titled "Behind The Mask". The song was originally penned in 1979 and was included in his posthumous album "Michael".

How will fans be able to contribute to this project? On March 7th, fans should refer to a dedicated website where they will be able to select a move, lyric or crowd reaction to incorporate into the video. They may also use their own webcams to submit their own dance moves.

Director Dennis Liu will then proceed to pick the best videos and include them into the final video, which will be released in the first week of April.

This project is being led by Radical Media and Sony Music.


What are your thoughts on this project, are you looking forward to a crowdsourced Michael Jackson video?

What are the Best Super Bowl Halftime Performances?


In my opinion Prince did the best Super Bowl Halftime performance ever. Who else can perform like THAT in the pouring rain?! Here are the songs which Prince performed “We Will Rock You,” “Let’s Go Crazy,” “1999,” "Baby I’m a Star," "Proud Mary," "All Along the Watchtower," "Best of You," "Purple Rain.” He truly showed what a musical genius can do! Check out what my other top 9 performances of the Super Bowl halftime are below.


My Top 10 Best Super Bowl Halftime Performances:

1. Prince
2. Michael Jackson
3. U2
4. Diana Ross
5. The Rolling Stones
6. Bruce Springsteen
7. Janet Jackson
8. Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers
9. No Doubt, Sting, Shania Twain
10. Aerosmith

What's your top 10 and where do you think the Black Eyed Peas will be placed?

Who do you think is going to win the XLV Super Bowl? The Green Bay Pakers or the Pittsburgh Steelers? I'm leaning towards the Green Bay Pakers.

Michael Jackson 02 Concerts Update


Michael Jackson has asked David Copperfield to help him create stunts including a levitation trick for his upcoming 02 concerts. A source says: "He has some very clear plans on what he wants the show to include and feels David is the man to help make them happen. It's not just about music for Michael, it's about the show."

MJ will most likely ask Leona Lewis amongst many other stars to join him on the tour, in addition his son Prince Michael I will also join.

Another juicy news is that MJ will arrive at the show on the back of an elephant! It sure will be a show to remember!

Michael Jackson's Concerts - Sold Out!


Tickets for Michael Jackson's 50 live dates at London's O2 arena have sold out, meaning that a staggering one million tickets to see the singer have been bought in a matter of hours.

Dates for the summer residency, beginning on 8 July, had been extended to 50 nights – one for each year of Jackson's life. The singer is said to be "thrilled" by the response, though no doubt his promoters are even happier. "Not only are these concerts unparalleled, these records have never been broken," said Randy Phillips, of promoters AEG Live. "We knew this was show business history, but this is a cultural phenomenon".

Concert dates:
July: 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 22, 24, 26, 28, 30
August: 1, 3, 10, 12, 17, 19, 24, 26, 28, 30

February 2010: 1, 3, 8, 10, 12.

Randy Phillips, head of concert promoters AEG Live, confirms, "There will be a new Michael Jackson single before the first date. Michael has got some new music and he is looking for a new way of disseminating his material to his fans."

And Phillips promises fans who manage to score tickets to the highly-anticipated performances won't be disappointed: "He wants to use some technical effects that have never been seen before."
