Jackson, ever the canny businessman, didn't really sing during his performance with the boys, he just did a few moves to whet the appetite. If you want to hear him sing, you have to plunk down your cash and see him at Madison Square Garden on September 7 and 10. Some seats are going for around $2,500. Now, I like Michael Jackson.

Nobody has picked up any of my quotes yet. In fact I'm having a hard time getting the studios to plunk down $50,000 for the newspaper. But no one on my staff is doing it for the money. Like Gene Shalit and Joel Siegel before us, we just get a big kick out of seeing our names in the paper. That's what drives people like us into this business. That and the free popcorn...
