Britney Spears To Join Michael Jackson On Stage?

The following italicized article is from www.entertainmentwise.com:

Britney Spears and Michael Jackson look set to make sweet music together at the king of pop's sold out London shows, it's claimed.

The Beat It star – who begins a year long string of shows dubbed This Is It in July – has reportedly invited Britney to join him on stage for a handful of performances in 2009 and in 2010 when his “final curtain call” comes to an end.

A source tells The London Paper, "Michael knows that stretching out all those shows and keeping it fresh is going to be hard, and one way to do this is to collaborate with some other big stars that he admires.

"The idea would be for them to do five dates each with him. As well as Britney and Justin, he's in talks with producer Timbaland about doing some of the dates too."

Meanwhile, Jacko who was forced to sell the Neverland mansion in 2005 to cover his legal costs, is certain to pocket huge revenues from his shows, which could also lead to single releases and a film.

Randy Phillips of concert promoters AEG says that Michael could rake in millions: "If we complete the full three-and-a-half year plan, he could gross over $400 million in that time. London could be north of $50 million."
