Michael Jackson Sold Out!!!

As we suspected the Michael Jackson Concerts sold out within minutes of being on sale. The first 10 Concerts sold over 350 000 tickets. By late yesterday the number of concerts had been increased to 30 and are already sold out which is a record for a performer at the O2 Dome. Randy Phillips from AEG Live said Jackson would earn R700, 000 000 from the concerts. There is speculation that Jackson may add on concerts to get to 50 his current age. Jackson has mystified his critics with millions pre registering to buy tickets. By all accounts judging by the number of people who have pre registed to purchase tickets he could easily sell out 100 concerts. That would mean by doing just one venue Jackson could pay off all his depts and still have a healthy bank account. Apparently Jackson has returned to the US for rehearsals for the shows which are predicted to be spectacular. Don't get me wrong as I'm sure there are going to be cancellations due to fatigue but you have to give it to the man this is some comeback. Just to put it in perspective Michael Jackson's website was getting 16, 000 hits a second at the height of the frenzy. Lets not forget the cash he will get for the live concert DVD, TV Special, Behind the Scenes Docci, Live Radio Broadcast, Internet and who knows maybe a 3D Special Movie? Lets not forget the new and live album. Thank God Michael Jackson is now being advised by some pretty clever guys. The only thing we now have to worry about is if MJ can keep it together for that long...

UPDATE: As we predicted Michael sold out 50 concerts in London. Not going to say we told you so. Latest news is that MJ will do the same in New York and LA following the London Gigs.
