Do you plan a World Tour after the concerts in London?
We do not want Michael to be under much pressure. That is why we have a four-year plan, divided the world into four zones each. London is the first step, because Michael was always very popular there. Then it goes with Europe. We are thinking about coming events in Germany - we are indeed the O2 World in Berlin and the Color Line Arena in Hamburg. Then came Asia, North America at the end. But it all depends on how it runs in London. Contractually identified is still nothing.
He also talks about Concerts in Paris:
Are you thinking about concerts in Paris?
A world tour is still valid. Michael loves France and the French. If he is OK to give more concerts in the world, Paris is number one on our list.

They were also set to tour the world with their idol.
"Michael talked to me about it a lot," Ortega said of the world tour.
"We would just be hanging out on a rest break and sitting in the dressing room and he would say 'Kenny, have you ever been to India?'.
"I would say 'No, I really want to go to India so badly. I haven't been'.
"He'd say 'You must. You must. When I take the show to India whatever you are doing you have to stop and come back and join the tour'.
"He'd say 'What about Japan?'
"I'd say 'Yes of course. I love Japan. I want to go to Japan'.
"He'd say 'What about Africa?'
"I'd say 'Yes, Africa'.
"I realised he wanted the world.
"He wanted to take this all over the world."

After his 50 concert run at O2 Arena, Jackson would have headed to Australia, Europe, India, China and Japan before then heading to his homeland of America.
"We felt London was the right place to start this comeback," Phillips said.
"Do I think the international marketplace is a little less judgmental than America can be? Yes. There was a calculated reason we did that.
"We figured we start over there and work our way back into America."

“You’re already touring. And it wasn’t only going to be London. It was going to be all over the world.”
All of these people can’t be lying. There may have not been a signed contract as of June 2009, but it quite clearly was the plan. Other sources have mentioned this also, I can’t find the quotes right now.
oh please, like all of them were claiming nothing was wrong with Michael, he was in good health, rehearsals are going great.... oops hes dead.. oops court case oops what they were saying in public was very different to what was really going on.
