Beyoncé along with many stars could perform in MJ tour

NO ONE could ever fill MICHAEL JACKSON’s slip-on shoes over the next six months at the O2.

But word is filtering out that tour promoters AEG are already working on a benefit gig to give fans a chance to see a host of A-list stars turning out in honour of the King of Pop.

JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE, DIANA ROSS, SIR PAUL McCARTNEY, Beyoncé KNOWLES, USHER, Michael’s nephews 3T and LEONA LEWIS have all had an early approach.

AEG need to pull something out of the bag quick.

In a fortnight, the O2 will be the best place to hear an echo unless they can get someone else in.

I was in Sunderland a few weeks ago for the first night of TAKE THAT’s Circus Tour.

GARY BARLOW told me that he felt like the band hadn’t booked enough dates and wished they had more stadia to play.

Gary, MARK OWEN, HOWARD DONALD and JASON ORANGE are well rehearsed, their production is ready to rock and they would be a great shout to save the day.

If everyone who had a ticket refund could rebook to see the Circus Tour, new dates would sell out in minutes.

A source said: “There were gentle inquiries about Take That stepping in if Jacko couldn’t do all his dates.

“The lads are heading off on holiday for two months after their Wembley dates next week but you never know after that?”

Jacko was the only remaining pop star capable of filling the 20,000-capacity venue for 50 nights on the spin.

But the show must go on, as hard as that sounds, and 50 primetime slots are now going begging at the O2.

And with only two weeks before This Is It was due to kick off, the race is on to find replacements.
