Now with all the financial troubles (around $400 million debt) , sex-scandals, and his rep and aura diminished - that would be good enough reason, right? Strong enough reasons to, but is it realistically possible. We're talking about one of the most recognisable people in the world, you couldn't go 100 miles in any direction and find any person, any age who wasn't familiar with Little Michael.
From all the Hear/say stories of the many taggers-ons who rode on Jacksons' coattails, you get the sense that he cared very deeply of what the public thought of him - maybe enough that when his divine aura was erased after the 2005 trial; he went into hiding and planned an elaborate escape plan.
The now cancelled 50 gig stint in London is an interesting twist. He knew ravenous fans would scoop up tickets quick, prompting the organisers to pay a 'good faith' sum - which I think is usually the case. So now he gets a nice little paypacket and takes the young Princes off to Neverland!
An interesting anecdote I heard on cable news the night of the' event'. Michael made an emotional speech at James Browns' funeral, and said something along the lines of how he hoped Mr Brown got a chance to do what he really wanted to; but hadn't had the chance to in this life. Ahh well maybe Mike will get his chance to be a kid again; or keep kids them around as much as he wants - in an island off the coast of Indonesia!
