I just googled it and found the news.
I dunno.
Seems that it's all under controll as the article says.

I thought it was the first 4 concerts?

It can't be the entire tour?

it says the first 4 gigs are postponed. it doesn't say all shows are cancelled

or am i just reading the wrong bit?

Now I found a dutch article that says it's bullshit.
So i dunno now.

It was a rumor it states.
He does a have a skin problem on the other hand it says.
But cancer?..no..

hmmm

I'm more concerned about the sky news report really?

Michael denies;

How reliable are these news sources?

I've yet to find an article that says it's been canceled. (One L, not two.)

MJ has skin cancer? Yeah right and how does that work exactly?

I'm no doctor but I would be willing 2 bet that U can't get cancer in plastic and that mans skin has so much plastic, he's practically a cyborg.

And I found this: http://www.nydailynews.co...ays_r.html

I think he plants these rumors just so he can deny them. He wants the attention.

I still don't think he'll go through with all of the concerts and break Prince's record. Something will come up.

Weird because ever spell check I've ever had showed two L's to be incorrect.

Sky News is Murdoch, right? Hope he sues them if there is no truth to it!

VinnyM27 said:

Yeah Murdoch owns that b.s.

peppeken said:

Say it ain't so, on the pictures I saw a while back he had some pretty nasty open sores on his leg. It was said he was going against Dr's orders trying to go ahead with this tour! That is neither here no there. The truth will come out after a while. Something's going on everything is postponed and now cancelled...

Yes some shows were postponed but sources saying they are canceled are not reliable.

as much as I support him, I believe he gets some kind of pleasure from bringing attention on to himself and crying wolf like that.

He gets far more pleasure from playing with children

you would know wouldn't you?

ernestsewell said:

It's true.

Another lame attempt at trying to one up Prince and yet another crash and burn chapter in the story of "Wacko Jacko".

"...singing on the telly, making more bucks than sense, so called king gives birth 2 so called prince!"

This must be rumor.

I am gonna spell it with one L from now on.
