According to Exposay.....
Michael Jackson doesn't think he is fit enough for his 50 "This Is It"
shows in London. The "Thriller" singer is "angry" at promoters for booking the
mammoth run as he never agreed to perform so many concerts at The 02 arena,
which start in July.
Speaking to fans outside the Los Angeles studio where he
is currently rehearsing for the shows, Michael reportedly said: "I don't know
how I'm going to do 50 shows, I'm not a big eater - I need to put some weight
on."
"I'm really angry with them for booking me up to do 50 shows. I only
wanted to do 10, and take the tour around the world to other cities, not 50 in
one place."
"I went to bed knowing I'd sold 10 dates, and woke up to the news
I was booked to do 50."
Michael announced he was to perform a 10-night
residency at a press conference in London on March 5, but after overwhelming
demand for tickets, promoters AEG announced a further 20 shows on March 11,
which was later increased to 50.
Sources close to Michael - who is believed
to be undergoing treatment for skin cancer - are also said to be concerned about
the 50-year-old pop star's weight, saying he is only eating once a day.
A
source told Britain's The Sun newspaper: "Michael has a phobia about getting
fat. He doesn't want to put on any weight at all. It's not healthy for him
because he weighs less than 126lbs now."
"But he is insistent that he'll only
eat once a day and is adamant that's enough food for him. He's very thin and
frail."
"Thriller" singer Michael has already postponed the first four dates
of his sell-out London shows, and his residency at the 20,000 capacity O2 area
will now start on July 13.

So when did Michael realise that he wouldn't be able to do these shows ? On top of that he names the tour " This is it" , don't get people all excited for nothing next time Mike!
