"There’s a solid rumor that when Michael’s first England run ends in September and resumes again there in January," reports the site, "that he may well do a series of U.S. concerts."
"Although concert promoters AEG wants him to appear in Las Vegas, it’s more likely it will be in New York or L.A. where there are arenas with 15,000 to 20,000 seats," it says.
The site quotes a British source as saying, “The London ticket sales were really a testing of the water... There’s no question that Michael and AEG are discussing a world tour now.”
