Michael Jackson was too scared to sing
Michael Jackson pulled out of a huge TV comeback – with stagefright.
Jacko, 49, was to sing live on the final of American Idol in front of a TV audience of 27 million. But 24 hours before the show in Los Angeles he bottled out, saying: “I can’t do it. Everyone will hate me.”
A source said: “This was his big chance but he got stage-fright.”
Spice Girls guru Simon Fuller is helping Jacko with his comeback, say insiders
