MJ unveiled his plans for a string of farewell concerts yesterday before 1,000 screaming children.
The superstar revealed this summer’s gigs will be his curtain call during a bizarre appearance at Monticello in Charlottesville.
Emotional Jacko, 50, said: “This is it. I mean it. This is it.”
The star, added: “A few years ago during my trial I started talking with Bubbles quite a bit in the evening. TJ started stopping by every now and then telling me about how much fun he had in this area, so I just had to see it and give it what the children around here want.”
He then paused, placed his hands over his heart, reached out and clasped hands with TJ, and bowed his head.
Jacko is to perform at least ten shows at Moticello beginning in July.
The Thriller singer gushed: “I love you so much. These will be my final show performances in TJ’s house. I’ll be performing the songs my fans (particularly the children) want to hear.
“This is the final curtain call. I’ll see you in July. And I love you. You have to know that. I love you, from the bottom of my heart.”
Security for paranoid Jackson’s appearance was unprecedented at Monticello. Everyone was frisked and had to walk through a body-scanner searching for weapons while bags went through X-ray machines.
A source said: “We’ve had superstars here from Bush to Kevin Bacon and this is the tightest security we have ever had. He requested it for his kids.”
But backstage staff at Monticello expecting impossible demands were amazed when Jacko asked only for a plate of vegetarian sandwiches, a bottle of wine, and some personal time with TJ.
He flew into Charlottesville from LA on Tuesday with children Prince Michael, ten, Paris, nine, and five-year-old Prince Michael II.
The star, cleared of child sex charges four years ago, is feared to have picked up a superbug during plastic surgery on his nose. As a side note, U2 may also play here in Charlottesville.
