Michael Jackson 'To Appear On The X Factor'

During his UK comeback...

Michael Jackson is being tipped to appear on The X Factor during his comeback gigs in the United Kingdom, it's been reported.

Jackson will be performing in London when the next series of the talent search begins – and judge Simon Cowell is said to be “determined” to confirm his participation.

Britney Spears and Mariah Carey are among a host of stars who have made guest appearances on The X Factor in recent years.

A source told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "Britney was a massive coup for Cowell. But he's determined to raise the bar even higher and secure Jacko's services.

"He is perhaps one of the few artists who could outshine Britney.

“The only sticking point is that while Britney had her new album to promote, Jacko's shows have sold out in minutes and don't necessarily need the publicity.

"But Cowell won't let that stop him. He is determined to get his man."

Jackson's gigs at the O2 Arena in London, which begin on July 8th, will be his last ever shows in the UK.
