Michael Jackson Announces His Tour, Reveals His Face (PHOTOS)

Michael Jackson made a rare public appearance at a press conference on Thursday to announce that he will be performing a series of live concerts in London this summer. The reclusive pop star is rarely photographed and when he is he's often disguised or covered up with scarves and masks. Now, we're starting to see why.

Although Jacko looked healthy considering the recent news regarding his life-threatening illnesses, his cosmetic surgery-sculpted face was still big news. Check out these close-ups:

A source close to Jackson says that he's doing the concerts for the sake of his three children. "Michael’s doing it for his kids. He wanted them to see, at least once, what he did for a living."

That's admirable, and I'm sure his kids will reap some of the financial rewards from the tour as well, but I'm wondering what they think of his, um - unconventional appearance? One look at a photo from his earlier years and they've got to suspect daddy's been under the knife a few too many times.

Parent instincts are some of the strongest Spidey-senses on the planet. When Slash worked with Michael Jackson back in the day, his Daddy-Instincts were on high alert.

Slash recently told Uncut Magazine, “You know, I give the benefit of the doubt to Michael on everything - innocent until proven guilty and whatnot - but I was thinking, okay Michael, you figure out your shit and I’ll hold on to my son!”

Dude's got a point.

The Jackson Five: Don't Call It a Comeback

Eat your heart out, Spice Girls, there's a new reunion in town. The Jackson Five are discussing a reunion tour next year. Even the guy that used to be Michael would be in it.

There is also a rumor that Miss Jackson (I'm nasty), queen of malfunctioning wardrobes may join them as well.

I'd like to see them go all out and do the Jackson Eight, with LaToya and Blanket on the tambourine. That, my friends, would be a show worth seeing.
