If Michael Jackson builds an act in Vegas, would you come?

Mj_l According to reports, Michael Jackson headlining a longterm engagement at a Las Vegas casino is one of the many options being considered as a means for the King of Pop to repay a loan that saved Neverland Ranch. Assuming the voice and the moves are still there, this seems like a decent idea. I mean, there's a chance that people vacationing in Sin City would be willing to put Jackson's past behind them long enough to enjoy "Billie Jean." Right?

If not, I suggest they build a domed dance floor that would play his old videos and classic live performances, as if it were a standing-room only planetarium. They could charge $40, and we'd get to feel as though we were there at the Motown 25: Yesterday, Today, Forever show (below) and in the "Thriller" video.

Vote now: Michael Jackson live in Vegas, or Michael Jackson Dance Dome* in Vegas?

CNN reports M.J. was obsessed with Celine Dion and wanted to imitate her, moved to LAS, but nothing came of it. Janet when to visit him and found his LAS pad scary. M.J. told his security not to let sibling in. Whatever talent, that dude was weird. Sorry for the kids.

NBCSUCKS Thu, Jun 25, 2009 at 07:53 PM EST

Probably not because he's DEAD!

Katalin Bene Tue, Apr 28, 2009 at 01:28 PM EST

MICHAEL IS THE BEST!

Cindy Wed, Jan 28, 2009 at 05:18 PM EST

Vegas, Michael, Hell yes, there is nobody as good as Micael

shelly Wed, Jan 28, 2009 at 05:16 PM EST

Hell yes I would go and see him, he is one of the best entertainers in history, I have been a fan for 30 years and always will be. Everyone has skeletons in their closets, give him a break, we would love to see him

Virginia Wed, Jan 28, 2009 at 05:10 PM EST

I would be there in a heart beat, I never got the chance to see him in his earlier days, but believe me, I would be there with 30 of my friends

ronette hampton Tue, Jan 27, 2009 at 10:14 PM EST

hells yes. i spoke to 20 of my friends when i heard this and if its true we are all taking a trip to see him!!!!!

Areti Sat, Jan 3, 2009 at 07:38 PM EST

ABSOLUTELY! i would go there from New Zealand! He is a genius.

Belinda Wed, Dec 17, 2008 at 09:29 PM EST

NO, i wont be there because i think that he lost his populary after the cases that he has gone through, so HELL NO

Katie Wed, Dec 17, 2008 at 09:21 PM EST

Would love to see Michale live - would even fly to Vegas from Australia!

Michelle Tue, Dec 9, 2008 at 11:13 AM EST

I would be there in a heart beat.. I have been to Vegas twice in a year and a half and I am planning two trips back this year.. tell me when and where and I will be first in line to see Michael

Rose Wed, Dec 3, 2008 at 07:19 PM EST

Oh yes are you kidding!!?? i am very, very, very, poor but, i would find ways to get to las vegas if it means that Michael Jackson is performing! I am so happy every fan is in here and will to pool together from all over the world to stand behind and support this beautiful man, soul and phenominon! And remember... Michael Jackson luvs us more!!

Kati Sun, Nov 30, 2008 at 05:46 PM EST

People can say what they want, but they can not deny how extraordinarily talented Michael is. My family has laughed at me for still being a fan of Michael, but they certaintly couldnt deny that he has talent. I have been a fan since I was a pre-teen and I will not stop being such because of some rumors which are unfounded. Even if they are true, that is a separate matter all together, because I would go to his concert to enjoy his music and dancing, his God given talent, not to get into his business. Please Michael come to Las Vegas or do concerts again! I have never been to your concert yet, but I know I would have a great time finally being able to do so. You are the best!! God bless!

makeda Sun, Nov 23, 2008 at 12:43 PM EST

I agree with assista all of his fans all 3 billion of them will never leave him hanging.i'm only 14 and i live in barbados and i would travel any where just to see him cus i'm one of his biggest fans and if i would do that i'm sure his fans would do the same.WE WANT U BACK MICHAEL MUSIC HASN'T BEEN THE SAME WITHOUT U. AND REMEMBER WE'RE BEHIND U EVERY STEP OF THE WAY

colin Sun, Nov 16, 2008 at 11:33 PM EST

do it...do it

aissata Sat, Nov 15, 2008 at 07:25 PM EST

Alonna Wed, Nov 12, 2008 at 09:08 PM EST

Oh yea I'm 15 years old

Alonna Wed, Nov 12, 2008 at 09:06 PM EST

It would be my dream to see him in concert! I have been a huge fan and will always love him. Some people think I'm insane, even my mom thinks I'm insane lol, but i don't care.

I hate how all of these people can say all of these mean things about him without even meeting him just because of the garbage the media publishes about him. How would you feel if people did the same thing to you?

rebecca page Mon, Nov 3, 2008 at 01:44 PM EST

i'm so glad there are loads of you who like mj. he is amazing like many of us it would be a dream come true to see a live concert and if we got to see him in person i think we'd pass out :)

i no it might be odd as a 13 really likes him and many people in school think i'm insane but Michael seems so kind a sweet. i so wish i could meet him and if i never do i seriously think i would die of sadness

(no joke i used to love hanging out with lots of friends and doing wot kids do but when i saw the trial 3 years ago and how devastated he was i stopped being happy and full of life, and i hope that maybe some of you can give me some advice cause my friends arn't good at that especially on this subject)

rebecca page Mon, Nov 3, 2008 at 01:33 PM EST

AS IF I WOULD MISS IT!!!!!!!!

Michael jackson is amazing i really wish i could talk to him in person and get to know him.
i don't care how young i am cause although i'm 13, 14 in may, i think it would be good for him to come into the light not the blured light that shows what the paparazzi or the tabloids think or say, but the bright spotlight showing how loving caring and bloody darn amazing and thoughtful that man really is! x

MJ#1fan Wed, Oct 22, 2008 at 02:12 PM EST

yes yes yes! That man is so sexy

Tue, Oct 21, 2008 at 01:49 PM EST

Vegas will be the perfect place for Michael Jackson to once again perform and he will bring peopple from all over the world to Vegas to see him.

mj girls Fri, Sep 12, 2008 at 01:34 PM EST

we are number one fans forever, but we don´t live in usa...so we will watch him on internet,ofcourse!!! KING OF POP FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hina Sehgal Wed, Sep 10, 2008 at 08:18 PM EST

I'm coming with my friends to see him perform and meet him as in person in VIVA LAS VEGAS BABY!!!!!!!

lindsayo Sat, Sep 6, 2008 at 04:19 PM EST

Octavia "Jackson" Mittchell Sat, Sep 6, 2008 at 03:09 AM EST

will Michael see this? If so, I beg of you to please do the live concerts!!! You just don't know how long I've been waiting to see you live. I'll even sing with you (lol) I really can sing so, if you need to pass the mic............I got you!!! really, I got it. Keep doing what your doing and let me know the start date and I'm there.

Smooches!

Octavia "Jackson" Mitchell Sat, Sep 6, 2008 at 02:59 AM EST

I have waited all my life to go to a Micheal Jackson concert!!! Not only will I come but hopefully I can bring my children as well. we are "ride or die" Jackson fans!!! My husband just had lunch with Jermaine Jackson 3 weeks ago in Gabon, Africa.........He said that he is very friendly. Michael Jackson is the greatest entertainer EVER!!! Please, oh please do the show!!! We want to see u Mike!!!!

Katerina Wed, Aug 27, 2008 at 01:22 PM EST

I'm one of Michael's more recent fans (age 19)and never seen him in concert,I would pay anything to go see him live. I was always moaning how not fair it is that I didn't get to see him,well here's my chance and I'm gonna take it. I'll go see M.J if it the last thing I do.

Fletch Tue, Aug 26, 2008 at 04:15 PM EST

Um, no...I won't.

freakine Tue, Aug 26, 2008 at 04:11 PM EST

God bless him! (Michael, don't give up hope! There are so much beings which love and believe in you dearly. )

We'll be there with our cumulative goodwill.

Sand Mon, Jun 23, 2008 at 01:16 AM EST

Far less talented and way more tarnished artists have made successful come-backs.
When we see/hear Michael again, don't be surprised if he has reinvented himself and his music once more. Its what he does.
Michael always was and forever will be a unique creature. He will continue to be persecuted by many but adored by more.
Recite the prayer of "WILL YOU BE THERE" and answer a resounding YES!

nathan walton Mon, Jun 23, 2008 at 01:12 AM EST

in a flash, well a 18hour flight from australia. Im there Michael!!!
