NME report that a Jackson Five reunion may be in the cards at the BMI eighth annual Urban Awards, which will be held at the Wilshire Theatre in Beverly Hills on September 4.
All well and good, except that they then go on to say that Michael is the only brother not to confirm his attendance; thus making it a reunion of the Jackson 4.

Jackson Incapable
Jack Wishna, a Las Vegas promoter, has stated that in his view Michael Jackson is incapable of performing in Las Vegas or anywhere else.
There has been media speculation that Jackson would headline at his own show in Vegas, following a deal done to save Neverland with a group that has links to the Las Vegas Hilton.
However, Wishna has poured cold water on that. He is quoted in the National Enquirer:
"Sadly, Michael's incapable of keeping promises, because he hasn't got the will to even show up anywhere, much less get himself into shape for a world-class performance.
He might drop by to wave at guests, or do a dance on top of a limo, but a longterm show? That dream will never come true, I'm afraid."

Appeal Rejected
Superior Court Judge Soussan G. Bruguera has rejected an appeal lodged by XtraJet Incorporated and its owner Jeffrey Borer against the damages awarded against it for $20.25M.
XtraJet Incorporated was ordered to pay damages to Michael Jackson's lawyer, Mark Geragos, and his associate, Pat Harris, for invading their privacy. Xtrajet taped Jackson and his lawyers as they flew to Jackson's surrender on molestation charges in 2003.

Neverland Loan Sold
Colony Capital LLC have bought the loan held by Fortress Investment Group on Michael Jackson's Neverland, as such the auction has now been cancelled.
Jackson issued a quote to the media via a spokesman:
"I am pleased with recent developments involving Neverland Ranch and am in discussions with Colony and Tom Barrack with regard to the ranch and other matters that would allow me to focus on the future".
Why does he want to keep the place, given that he has effectively abandoned it?
Colony are now negotiating payment terms for the $23.5M loan with Jackson.
