TRIBUTE is paid to Michael Jackson at Coventry's Belgrade Theatre next week. Thriller Live, the first multimedia concert specially created to celebrate the career of one the world's greatest entertainers, has been put together by Jackson biographer Adrian Grant...

It's not quite Neverland, but the all-singing-all-dancing Jackson clan is leaving California for a holiday home in the heart of the English countryside. Tito Jackson, 54, has rented a spacious five-bedroom barn conversion in the Devonshire town of Appledore in South West England and will be joined by his sons Taj, 34, Taryll, 32, and T.J., 29, who make up the band 3T, as well as his superstar Jackson Five siblings.

KING OF POP (CATALOG): In its original run, Michael Jackson's "Thriller" was on The Billboard 200 for 122 weeks, 37 of which were spent at No. 1. With the re-entry of a silver anniversary edition, the rechristened "Thriller 25" (Legacy/Epic) is in its 112th week on the Top Pop Catalog Albums chart and is No. 1 on that tally for the first time.

Considering its status as a catalog release, the new 25th anniversary reissue of Michael Jackson's "Thriller" (Epic/Legacy) was ineligible to chart on The Billboard 200 this week. But it does bow at No. 1 on the Top Pop Catalog Albums tally after selling 166,000. The project includes reworked "Thriller" tracks by Akon, Kanye West, Fergie and will.i.am.

After a long and frequently dramatic time away from the music industry, Michael Jackson is releasing his first new music in seven years. To mark the 25th anniversary of his record-breaking album Thriller, the man once known as the King of Pop is releasing a new version of the hit The Girl Is Mine. Originally a duet with Sir Paul McCartney, Jackson has re-recorded the song with The Black Eyed Pea’s Will.i.am. Jackson was booked to perform at the World Music Awards in London but managed only a few faltering notes. His latest comeback attempt is more ambitious. The Girl Is Mine will be on shop shelves on January 28, followed by a new edition of Thriller, featuring remixes by hip-hop heavyweights Akon and Kanye West, on February11. Then in March the singer starts a three-month-long UK tour.

More details are emerging about the recording sessions for Michael Jackson's upcoming studio album, which is being executive produced by Black Eyed Peas member will.i.am. Chris Brown tells that he got a verbal commitment from both will.i.am and Jackson himself to make a guest appearance on the project. "We are talking but…like I originally talked to will.I.am, because he does some stuff for him. And then when I talked to Mike, he said 'Yeah we’ll do something,' so hopefully we will do that record," Brown said.

According to the Web site, Rodney Jerkins, Teddy Riley and others are recording Jackson’s album in Westmeath Ireland, Las Vegas and New York; and features production. Allhiphop is also reporting that Jackson is currently working with will.i.am and rapper 50 Cent to produce a 10- to 30-date residency at London's O2 Arena

Windy City rapper Rhymefest and associate DJ Mark Ronson recently teamed up to release a Michael Jackson homage mixtape, "Man in the Mirror." The disc features tracks entirely sampled from Michael Jackson and Jackson 5 songs. "This was very important to me, seeing as how Michael Jackson is responsible for a revolution in music that took place when he dropped a fu*king bomb on the planet called Thriller," Fest wrote on his myspace blog. The disc was sent out about two weeks ago to Myspacers who asked for it, in exchange for comments and feedback about the music. On his blog, Fest said he'll make the mixtape available to everyone for free download tomorrow (Jan. 1) but someone beat him to the punch as the disc is already available online now.
