Michael Jackson made an appearance in Japan at the weekend to host that previously reported exclusive fan party and to sponsor a fan art competition. The singer arrived at the country's Narita Airport dressed in sunglasses and a leather jacket and was ushered past hordes of screaming fans, some carrying signs bearing slogans such as "We love Michael" and "Welcome to Japan".
Fans have apparently paid more than 400,000 yen (about 1800 of your earth pounds) for a ticket to the exclusive party at which they will get thirty seconds or so of personal time with the pop megastar, whilst the competition is being held for those who can't afford the cost of the party. Three winning fan artists will get to share brunch with Jackson, and have their photo taken together.
