    This week's cover: An exclusive first look at the new Michael Jackson movie

    mjackson-1072_lWhen tickets for Michael Jackson’s This Is It went on sale on Sept. 27, hundreds of shows around the globe sold out in less than 24 hours, without anyone knowing quite what it even was — a concert movie? A documentary? “It’s somewhere in between,” says Sony Pictures co-chair Amy Pascal of the film, which consists of behind-the-scenes footage of Jackson rehearsing for his planned comeback concerts at London’s O2 arena. “It’s a movie about rehearsing for a concert that never happened. It’s heartbreaking and inspiring at the same time. It gives you chills.”


    Now, with the October 28th worldwide release of the movie fast approaching, the late pop star’s collaborators open up about working with Jackson during his precarious last days. At age 50 Jackson hadn’t toured in more than a decade, but while his team worried at times about his health, his imagination was as active as ever.


    In fact, as the production got under way, it quickly became clear that Jackson’s creative ambitions for the concerts were beyond anything he’d ever attempted. With the budget already past $24 million, Jackson told his team he wanted to recreate one of the world’s largest waterfalls — Victoria Falls in southern Africa — on the stage. “I was ready to jump off the balcony of my office,” says Randy Phillips, president of the concert promotion firm AEG Live. “We went and met with Michael, and [director] Kenny [Ortega] said, ‘Michael, you’ve got to stop. We’ve got an incredible show, we don’t need any more vignettes.’ Michael said, ‘But Kenny, God channels this through me at night. I can’t sleep because I’m so supercharged.’ Kenny said, ‘But Michael, we have to finish. Can’t God take a vacation?’ Without missing a beat, Michael said, ‘You don’t understand — if I’m not there to receive these ideas, God might give them to Prince.’ ”

    ‘You don’t understand — if I’m not there to receive these ideas, God might give them to Prince.’


    Ob er das 2009 wirklich so gesagt hat?
    Oder ob Ortega und Phillips sich hier ein paar werbe-wirksame Zitate halb ausgedacht haben - sozusagen als Gag?


    Ich kann mir nicht vorstellen, dass Michael gedacht hätte, dass Prince solche Ideen in seine Shows einbauen würde.


    Wenn so ein Dialog allerdings im Film auftaucht, dann würde ich Michael einen sehr, sehr lustigen Humor zusprechen.

    Katherine Jackson -- This Isn't It
    Posted Oct 16th 2009 12:40AM by TMZ Staff
    Something is going on with the Jackson family .... multiple sources are telling us the family has been invited with open arms to attend the premiere of "This Is It" .... but Katherine Jackson and other family members insist they have been snubbed.


    Here's what we know -- 60 tickets for the Michael Jackson movie have been offered to the family, yet Katherine insists no one ever called them about getting seats. Several sources tell us they believe the ticket offer was made to certain members of the family but the offer was never relayed to Katherine.


    Fact is ... Katherine doesn't want to see the movie. She tells TMZ as far as she's concerned it's not a real movie because there is no acting -- just rehearsal footage.


    But we're also told Jackson's three kids have been telling Katherine they want to see it ... bad.


    Joe Jackson insists "This is It" is mostly body doubles and "the media is going to tear this movie apart."


    Sources say Sony not only offered the Jackson family seats to the premiere, but also offered a private screening.


    Is it possible one of Katherine's sons is hoarding info? Just a theory ...



    ......mmmhhhhhhh:?
