Jaimie King is brillian! He was on MJ's Dangerous Tour and has directed Madonna's record breaking tours (Sticky & Sweet Tour, etc)!!

[gkidrhino13]

[MultiZanah1]

I never had the opportunity to participate in Michael Jackson's tribute for the lack of money. People says that is just want, but that's not how things work in real life, it takes power. And that is why peopl who are reading this message, please help me, enough to live with the pain that will never go to a show of MJ... does not want to die without going to Cirque Du Soleil tribute too. Help me!!! I want go!!! @_zanahMJ twitter

[Mrsprincejackson1771]

[Clairem525]

I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE IT!!!!!!

[111pattycakes]

WHAT A HUGE RESPONSIBILITY ON THE SHOULDERS OF JAMIE KING!

[111pattycakes]

Please God.... BRING MICHAEL JACKSON back to us! I am SO excited about this show!

[Mj4Eternity58]

Wonder How They're Gonna Pull This Off, Loving The Idea Btw:)

[texasbangs]

Fucking HOT Michael Jackson at 0:20

[HPWhoseLineAvatarMJ]

@Twilightnerd78 Ohhhh haha, that's too bad; it REALLY looks promising ! And since I'll never be able to see Michael in concert now, this is going to be the next best thing, right ? :D Haha the only reason I get to go is because I have very gracious relatives in Las Vegas and I miraculously convinced my mommy. :)

And I really think they might release some concert footage on a DVD; they've done it with MJ's Dangerous Concert ! :D

[Leader190Productions]

Pretty awesome!! I hope it turns out good! Really capturing Michael's energy and vision!

[HPWhoseLineAvatarMJ]

@Twilightnerd78 Oh, and as for broadcasting it on TV, I'm not so sure about that, it sounds like it's a performance that's held exclusively for people who have paid for tickets, but it'll for sure be on the news, and maybe the Michael Jackson site or the Cirque de Soleil site will post some preview or something ! :D

[HPWhoseLineAvatarMJ]

@Twilightnerd78 Heehee, no problem. :) If you just Google : Michael Jackson Cirque de Soleil, there are all the times and dates and locations and things on the official Cirque de Soleil site. Just click the "Buy Tickets" link, and it'll show you. I see there is one show playing in Houston, and it's coming up, so you better buy your tickets if you want to go ! :) Ticket prices vary, based on the date and the location (I assume), and the quality of your seats for sure. Good luck ! :)

[HPWhoseLineAvatarMJ]

@Twilightnerd78

This is an event where performers sing and dance to Michael's music. It's going to be like a HUGE celebration of Michael's work and his legacy. At the same time, the shows will commemorate Michael's memory. They are most likely going to have dancers that resemble Michael who perform. The shows are held in all over the world (tickets on sale now!) and I'm pretty sure that after they finish touring, it's going to become a permanent show in Las Vegas. AND I AM SUPER EXCITED. :D

[djaps]

this better not fuckin suck

[111romme]

I have my tickets already!!! They are for APRIL 2012!!!! :D Can't wait!

[kauzpayne2]

i already have tickets for Michael Jackson Cirque du Soleil and there are box seats.

[MsAzure77]

In a way it's very weird to have show like this about Michael,because when you think about it anyone can do a cover or whatever on Beatles/Elvis songs or shows.It doesnt really matter much WHO sings or performs them or in what context.They just don't have nearly as much personality,Magic or anything special about them,unlike all of Michael's music/art.Compared to Him they're all very generic performers.No one can ever do a good enough recreation of MJ's songs or dances.He is simply too Unique!

[WhitneyGetz]

Face it, without Michael there's no show, no Michael Jackson concert.

[MsAzure77]

@WhitneyGetz Yeah...I'm afraid you could be right

He's the Greatest Entertainer of ALL time!It's totally different having a show based on other people's music like Elvis or Beatles.Because ANYONE can do a show based on THAT,it doesn't really matter who does it.They're nowhere near as special and unique as MJ is in any way.So I'm very worried it could as a show only inspired by Michael's genius just fall flat without the King himself there to give it that special spark of Life,Magic and Love!

[zeromarcy]

why did jamie king wrote a book about MJ fake death??

[AlwaysHeather1]

@zeromarcy what? eeee! Tell me pretty please.

[mivoiosi]

awesome

[MoonStruck95]

lol, in the middle of thriller in Cirque's show *the real* Michael Jackson turns up!!!! lol!!! AMAZING!!! I really wanna see it...!

[lovamour77]

This boy seems sincere and has quite positif and strong energy. I hope he will succeed in doing what he said he wanted to do with this show. Good luck !

MJ IMMORTAL and IRREPLACEABLE

[valentinolover70]

@DianaRossLuvsMJ

Thanx for sharing. :-))

[valentinolover70]

Can't wait to see the Show! :-))

[SuviJade]

I hope this show really is as beautiful,inspiring and uplifting as Michael has always been in everything he does.On stage and off. The Giving Tree as a central figure sounds like a wonderful, Magical idea Michael himself would be very proud of! The thing that gave HIM much inspiration.

And He truly IS Immortal! Alive and here FOREVER!And we are all United for Him, United for LOVE! Forever...

[BillieJean1975]

Love it!

[nellaavenius]

Wow! It's going to be an awesome show!

[TheVagueSoulAgain]

Will there be in South East Asia!?!?!?! PLEASE COME TO SINGAPORE OR OTHER NEIGHBOURING COUNTRIES!!

[hondah2o]

i'm looking forward to this, Already purchased my tickets!! =D

[gut197]

I can't wait to see this!

[marchaelic08]

WoW!

[joeymorales]

OMG!!! I have to be part of this show somehow!!! I'm a dancer and started because of Michael, like all the best dancers. This would be a life dream! MJ and Le Cirque <3 <3 <3

[ritsfata]

I can't wait to see how this combines. THIS WILL BE SO DAMN COOL! When does it come out?

[Tangerinez77]

I want to Go SOOO BAD! I'd have to drive to New York or Pa. closest to my City/State. Crys... I'm deprieved from ART! :(

[urlildawg2]

I am so excited for this show! Gotta go get my tickets!!!

[mlvc82]

i can't stand Jamie King...please MADONNA stop working with him.

[debbietristan100]

@mlvc82 Jamie King is wonderful, creative & caring to do this show about Michael. His comments on this video make me want to see the show even more!

[mlvc82]

@debbietristan100 he might be the most caring individual in the world but his ideas are recylced over and over.....everything he does in one show is used again in another show......he is one of the most overrated choreographers/show directors EVER! i really hope MADONNA goes for fresh new innovative talent on her next tour PLEASE!

[SuviJade]

@mlvc82 Who the hell cares about Madonna!?No one! We're here for honoring and supporting MICHAEL only!He's all we care about..And we can only hope this show WILL honor the greatest Entertainer in the World just like he deserves.Leave the no talents like Madonna out of it!

[debbietristan100]

@mlvc82 Sounds like yr 1 of the lucky ones who gets to see many shows, so things wont always look new 4 you. There's only so many things that can be done in dance. For the rest of us who are looking forward to seeing Michael's Cirque show, whatever we see will be amazing. I will be grateful to experience the next best thing to seeing Michael himself in concert.

[lovephotography]

@mlvc82 His ideas weren't "recylced" his moves are Icon and something the audience expected. So Michael gave what was wanted of him in every single concert.

[mlvc82]

@lovephotography are you people mentally retarded....my comments are DIRECTED AT JAMIE KING....he recycles the same ideas over and over again...he takes what he's done into Britneys shows...into the spice girls...into the celine dion show etc. etc......and my comment was I HOPE HE DOESN'T WORK WITH MADONNA again...because i'm sick of his played out nonsense.......so good luck for you MJ show but just realize half of the stuff u see has already been done in other shows.

[lovephotography]

@mlvc82 Please don't call us mentally retarded not our fault you can't make your comments clear enough for people to understand.

[mlvc82]

@lovephotography uhhhhh actually i was pretty damn clear look at my last 3 comments and you tell me if there was anything directed at MJ! thank you.

[DarthKorig]

This really came out of nowhere but I'm excited.

[Kostyasch]

Can't wait!

[digita1studios]

spelled "Michael" wrong!!

[OhMyJesusss]

sounds awesome!

[Naniel]

Amazing. I believe you will do a fantastic job in capturing Michael's world and I just know the show will be absolutely wonderful!
