As if reworking Thriller tracks with Fergie and Kanye West wasn’t enough of a giant Drudge siren that Michael Jackson wants to get back in the pop limelight, there’s now the news that the self-dubbed King Of Pop (wait, is he still calling himself that?) wants to embark on a 30-night run at London’s O2 Arena, most recently the site of the Led Zeppelin reunion show.
The British publication Now is reporting that Jacko could get £30 million from the shows, which he has been “getting into shape” for. (And yes, I know that the video up top is a little, uh, old, considering the “shape” Michael’s in now, but a) “Don’t Stop” is one of his best songs ever and b) did you really want me to post a picture of him with Post-It Nose for “authenticity”?)

Is Gary Glitter going to open?
Whoa, this popped up on my iTunes just as I visited the site. Weeeeird…
Jarvis is needed now more than ever.
Obligatory Michael Jackson likes little boys joke.
Michael can’t last 30 minutes onstage let alone 30 nights.
