It’s been revealed today that Michael Jackson had signed Britain’s Got Talent winners Diversity as a support act for his London shows just days before he died.

According to The Sun newspaper, the dance act would’ve received £10,000 per night and if they’d performed at each of his 50 shows, that would’ve netted them half a million pounds.

The group have often said that their dance moves – which won the nation’s votes on BGT – were inspired by Jackson and last night, a spokesmen for the group told the paper, “The boys signed their deal last week. They were over the moon.

“It was a once-in-a-lifetime gig.”
