"Concerts In London"

According to some of Britain’s most popular newspapers, Michael is currently in advanced talks with concert organisers for up to thirty concerts at London’s 02 Arena which will take place this summer. However, a spokeperson for an agent stated that the concerts were only at the discussion stage.
They also speculate that Michael could command up to 1.5 million pounds per concert and there is talk that he could still use Las Vegas or another American venue to stage his concerts.
Obviously if any of this is confirmed and there is any official announcement regarding Michael performing then we will have the information on our web site.
