Michael Jackson - Jackson's Super Bowl Surprise

MICHAEL JACKSON will make a surprise comeback at the American Football Super Bowl this weekend in TV advertisements to promote the 25th anniversary of THRILLER. The star is to be honoured in a Pepsi commercial, based on the ghoulish Thriller video, which will air during the showdown game between the New England Patriots and the New York Giants on Sunday (03Feb08). The move is a marketing ploy to promote a special anniversary version of the album - and will be followed by a "major TV, radio, online and outdoor advertising campaign", reports the New York Post. Jackson is also rumoured to be among the stars appearing at the Grammy Awards on 10 February (08) alongside Akon, will.i.am and Fergie.
