We almost wouldn't believe it were it not in an esteemed publication like the New York Daily News, but the hard-hitting investigative journalists of Page Six are reporting that the one and only King of Pop, Michael Jackson himself, may attempt to erect a 50-foot, robotic likeness of himself in the Las Vegas desert in full view of incoming planes. According to entertainment company consultant Mike Luckman, his business partner Andre Van Pier has already designed what we'll refer to as the massive Jackobot, complete with -- and we'll stifle the urge to break out that tired old cliché -- laser beams shooting up into the sky. The plan will only go into motion if Jackson decides to launch a show in Sin City, for which Van Pier has also contributed sketches of a "stage set of a giant audience-interactive video game with human cyborgs controlled by the audience," whatever the hell that means. Perhaps aware that a Jackobot fiasco could be the straw that breaks the camel's back and forces Jackson to finally sell him that tasty share of the Beatles catalog, Sir Paul McCartney is said to be interested in investing in what we can only imagine will be a gaudy spectacle even for Vegas standards. We'll also forgo the slew of robot Jacko jokes we could close with and instead implore you all to please, oh please, help us find some pics / drawings of this alleged monstrosity...

HE IS Dead. Sorry Every one
Las Vegas is trying to be more kid friendly....? Maybe they said screw that, lets prevent kids from coming! Michael Jackson and Erect should not be used in the same sentence.
why not you dumb ass all red blooded men have erections. has anyone ever stop to think that those alligations weren't true, and now his career slowed because some people wanted to try and get money from him.
I for one welcome our new JackoBot overlord to Vegas...that is until it asks for my first born son as payment..........
Using Bender in that pic makes it kid friendly to me!
All hail Bender! Supreme Overlord! Kill All Humans!
Wow.. the kid jokes just never seem to get old.. :|
Jackson would love Vegas... What happens in Vegas, Stays in Vegas...and don't come back and bite him in the butt in court. ;)
A MICHAEL JACKSON GUNDAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I live in Vegas. I'm scared. Hold me.
I BET IF YOU WERE TO SEE HIM IN REAL LIFE IN VEGAS YOU WOULD BE ON THE TIP OF D.I.C.K.!!!!!!!!!!
Most importantly
Can it moonwalk?
or even more importantly...
will it blend?
Just say "NO" to drugs.
we should donate money (1 cent eachone) and stand a FRY besides
April fools, bitches!!
REMEMBER ME! *flames shoot out* REMEMBER ME!
Thats the first thing I thought about when I saw this lol. Futurama rox.
Anything with Micheal Jackson and erect and 50 foot in the same sentence is scary to me...
Why is he black in that picture? He hasnt been black for years. He went from little black boy to an ugly white women.
please, never put the words "Michael Jackson" and "Erect" in the same sentence ever again
Let's try him on those same charges here in Texas!
This scares me.
Michael Jackson Erect. Michael Jackson Erect. Michael Jackson Erect. Michael Jackson Erect. Michael Jackson Erect. Michael Jackson Erect. Michael Jackson Erect. Michael Jackson Erect. Michael Jackson Erect. Michael Jackson Erect. Michael Jackson Erect. Michael Jackson Erect. Michael Jackson Erect. Michael Jackson Erect. Michael Jackson Erect. Michael Jackson Erect. Michael Jackson Erect. Michael Jackson Erect. Michael Jackson Erect.
LOL. Yeah this would be interesting.
YOU HAVE WAT TOOOOO MUCH TIME ON YOUR HANDS,READ A BOOK OR SOMETHING
I do, cause copy and paste takes a whole 5 seconds.
No you do, because you just went through PAGES of blogs to find that comment.
I don't want to see "Michael Jackson" and "Erect" in the same title.
REMEMBER ME BURRRRRP!!!!!!!! REMEMBER ME BURRRRRP!!!!!!!! REMEMBER ME BURRRRRP!!!!!!!!
Seriously, any futurama watchers out there that actually know why benders in the picture? What a great episode.
Don't destroy my beloved Bender that way. Such a gentle robot deserves respect!! Besides, Bender prefers hooker bots and cheap floozies to innocent children.
Newspaper headline: "KING OF POP TO BECOME KING KONG OF POP"
Holy shit, it's Michael Jackson's Moonwalker from Sega Genesis. Quite possibly one of the greatest games of all time now becoming a reality!!!
Ha! You fools. Most of you Americans are so two faced. If someone is successful you hail them as great Americans. Once they do they become less successful you disowned them for any (and stupid) reasons. I bet if Michael Jackson had another hit record under his arm you would all be "Aww Michael we love you" even you fools taking the piss of him!
If anything its bullying. And thats something your country does well.
The Jackobot can bite my shiny metal ass!
I can't think of anything more scary than a 50 foot Wacko Jacko standing guard on the outskirts of Vegas.
And hopefully any mad Mullah suicide bombers flying Jumbo jets towards Vegas will think the same.
'New York, New York', 'The Stratosphere', 'Luxor' et all are safe.
Sanity has left the building...
apparetnly theres some 20 foot robot boys wandering around out there somewhere.
h@Y!!!! i d0nT w@nT 2 c "m1cH@3l j@k$un" & "3r3Kt" 1n th@ $@m3 $3nT3nc3!!!@@~!~~!
HARHARHARHARIMSTUPIDHARHARHRRRRLOLOLLLLZZZ~!~!
REMEMBER ME!!!
awww.... y'all beat me to it!
The scariest part is theres enough crazys who actualy like this fugly abomination of a perv that this might become a reality and he would start making money again and once again his fans would forget about the boy touching, farkin perv...
Come on people, why am I having to do this?
Now all say it with me....
I for one welcome our new 50ft Michael Jackson Robot overlords!!!
Um Billy touching young boys is not becoming less sucsessful its being a pervert and thats not a stupid reason to hate someone. It sounds like your sticking up for a pedophile. Oh and I am Canadian.
Okay, the movie where Michael Jackson is a robot is called Moonwalker. Here are some links for your enjoyment:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moonwalker
http://youtube.com/watch?v=CxdBTBIaXRQ
In the video you see him transform into the robot.
No fricken way.....No fricken way......Godzilla will wake up and (bleep) the hell out of it.
It's about time, well deserving recognition. Thanks you Lord..
I doubt very much if Paul McC is going to invest. He doesn't like Jackson, ever since Mike bought the Beatles tunes. He has said so often enough. Someone please stop this man (?) from more insanity.
Well....1) I think it would be a very tacky desert decoration...and 2) at least it would be a realistic likeness of him; since he doesn't look human anymore.
Considering that the New York Post is the equivalent of National Enquirer masking itself as some sort of serious 'newsworthy' publication, I highly doubt the validity of this story. Leave Jackson alone, it's getting old.
oh my god. you came back to this and replied? thats pretty lame. Wasn't his career already slowed? And I don't know if I'd consider him a true man anymore, lol.
OMFG!!! Always what I've wanted!!! A 50 foot Jacko thingy or whatever...like that's gonna happen!
Yet, a repetitive tease from another delusion of grandeur...
I really wanna have his poop in a jar!! Really!! So I can take a nice big whiff and get high on pedophiley aroma!!!
No really!!! We're actually going to drive out to the desert in our new converted bus where I'm gonna build a bond fire and I'm gonna throw 20 some years worth the Jacko shit in!! I am sorry I waisted all those fucking years looking to him and I am free now.
I always knew Jacko whacko was nuts but insane says it better- what an egotisical jackass I thought he was broke?? now he wants to erect a tower of himself ? if Vegas allows him to do that they should commit themselves also this poor excuse for a human being is not only sickening to look at -- how is he allowed to keep those children he is a bad influence on those children where are the social workers???????
