THE KING OF KA


Michael Jackson + lasers + sequins = awesome/X, where X = disco flava.

Michael Jackson and his three kids were at the 7 p.m. performance of Ka at MGM Grand last night. Jackson has been awfully active in the public eye lately (well, what counts for him as active — he still wore a hoodie and a face mask), having been spotted in recent weeks going to the movies at the Palms and seeing sister Cirque act Mystere on July 29. Today, the rumor breaks that Jackson might be involved in the MTV Video Music Awards.

After the show, Jackson said it was the best production he’s ever seen and that it was his favorite of the Cirque shows. We assume he means best production he’s ever seen that didn’t involve well-choreographed zombies.

KÀ OFFERS BACKSTAGE DEAL FOR LOCALS

KÀ

Been looking for a good excuse to see by Cirque du Soleil but couldn’t find one to justify the $100 tickets? Well, you Nevada residents now have serious incentive to buy tickets to the senses-shattering show at MGM Grand: From Feb. 5 to Apr. 12, not only are tickets half-off for locals, but the first 50 ticket purchasers for the Wednesday, Thursday or Friday 7 p.m. performances also get a backstage tour.

You don’t want to miss that. We’ve been backstage and it’s incredible. Of course, so is the show. But seeing the guts of the technology driving the spectacle is icing on the cake. Click here for more information.
