JACKSON ARRIVES IN JAPAN FOR PARTY
Smiling and waving to screaming fans, Michael Jackson arrived in Japan on Sunday for his second visit here in recent years to host an exclusive party where fans get to spend 30 seconds with the pop icon for the price of US$3,500 (euro2,700) per person.
Jackson made his first official foray back into the spotlight after his acquittal on child molestation charges in June 2005 with an appearance in Tokyo to accept an MTV Japan award last year.
A relaxed-looking Jackson in trademark sun glasses and black leather jacket was ushered by guards past hundreds of screaming Japanese fans at Narita Airport on Sunday afternoon, some carrying signs that read "We love Michael" and "Welcome to Japan."
At the VIP party, guests will get to mingle with Jackson, spending 30 seconds to one minute each of exclusive face time with the Gloved One, according to organisers. It was unclear whether the star will perform any songs.
While in Tokyo, the star will also host a fan art contest for Japanese who cannot afford VIP tickets, organiser Broderick Morris said in an e-mail.
Three winning artists chosen by Jackson will have brunch with the star and their picture taken together.
Jackson, one of the best-selling artists of all time, has lived abroad since his acquittal, forsaking his Neverland Ranch in California for residences in Bahrain, France, and a castle in Ireland.
He told The Associated Press in January he was back in the United States, where he was widely reported to be pursuing business deals in Las Vegas. "I love Japan," he said at the time. "It is one of my favourite places in the entire world."
Jackson's VIP meet-and-greet party was scheduled for Thursday, with the fan art contest on Friday. It was not clear when Jackson would leave Japan.
Jackson, 48, is not obligated to perform at either event, and promoters refused to comment on how much he would be paid.

Most of us in slightly older age grew up with him. I mean he couldn’t go outside from the age of 10 due to his fame. We all saw his evolution and how he rose up and shot through the stratosphere. He built this mystery around him. He was quiet and shy and then came his electrifying music and dance that just blew everyone away. His style, his fashion, his unique voice. His heart, his kindness to people. His caring for the world and the environment. His unusual behavior with animals and kids and his physical appearance change was a point of fascination. He simply was the whole package. An amazing human being. And all of this before internet and social media.

Still deemed the king of Pop and still has millions of people jamming to his songs? Artist young and old till this day even ones in other countries are inspired by him.
