Michael Jackson wants nine doctors at comeback gig

mrs.v · March 2nd, 2009, 01:02 PM

Michael Jackson has demanded nine doctors on-hand at a forthcoming private gig in case he falls ill during the comeback performance, according to the singer's biographer. The "Thriller" singer has reportedly agreed to sing at a party for Russian billionaire Oleg Derispaska in April in exchange for $2.9 million.And in his contract, the star has stipulated he must have a full team of experts to ensure he is in full health, according to Ian Halperin, author of forthcoming book "Unmasked, The Michael Jackson Story".
If the small-scale show is successful, it could mean Jackson will go ahead with plans for a rumored residency at London's O2 Arena - his first major performances since his last tour in 1996.
Halperin says, "The concert would be his first in years and is being seen as a test to see if he could perform in London but a lot depends on his health. The rider for the gig by Jackson's handlers includes a request for nine top doctors to be on site at all times, 11 gourmet chefs, 1,200 bottles of the world's finest bottled water, Bling H2O, and six massage therapists."

Frankenstein didn't need 9 doctors to put him together. That says a lot about MJ.

Well between the nine doctors and the eleven chefs, at least there will be twenty people who attend.

So that would be the witch doctor, the wig doctor, the nose doctor, the skin doctor, and the others are psychiatrists?

"Unless he falls ill" = empty venue or child investigations
