Michael Jackson : 50 concerts sold within 5 hours!


Seriously, he may not be my favourite singer but he is undeniably the King of Pop! And for that, I would loveeeeee the opportunity to see him in concert!

He recently announced his comeback by staging 10 performance in London this summer.

"I will be performing the songs my fans want to hear, This is it. This is really it. This is the final curtain. I will see you in July." he said during the press conference.

When the tickets opened up for sale last week, the respond was overwhelming. From 10 concerts, the organizer extended to 50 concerts and all ticket were sold within 5 hours!

The unprecedented sales come despite the fact Jackson hasn't recorded an album since 2001's Invincible and has gotten more attention in recent years for his bizarre behavior and, in 2005, his acquittal on child abuse charges.

The "King of Pop" has sold around 750 million records and won 13 Grammys.
