Thursday, February 07, 2008

Michael Jackson and Akon might be coming together for a Pepsi commercial at the Superbowl. Akon let some details slip out during an interview. The Pepsi commercial was initially focused on Jackson, but he also involved Akon with him, and people are commenting that it's a hilarious ad, and a definite watch.

Jackson is releasing a 25th anniversary edition of his best-selling album "Thriller", on Feb 12th. The album features performances from Akon, Kanye West and Fergie on the remix versions of the songs of the album.

Akon also let it slip that there was a commercial for the album planned for the Superbowl, which will include glimpses of the performances. The acts have been selected by Jackson himself, and have been grouped together in what should be another successful album by the singer.

Akon has been performing with T-Pain recently at the Maxim event, and now, these rumors of a feature in Michael's album and live show. No wonder the singer is doing great these days.
