Former King of Pop Michael Jackson is set to collaborate with reformed boy band New Kids On The Block.
The reformed boy band’s singer, Donny Wahlberg, revealed the plan as the group - who announced they were reuniting earlier this year - celebrated the launch of their comeback tour, which starts in September.
Donny said: "It’s very exciting. It’s one big party and everyone wants to join us."
The band held secret talks with Michael, 49, at his Nevada home last week.
They are the latest in a string of artists - including Kanye West, will.i.am, Ne-Yo and Akon - rumoured to be working with him as he attempts to revive his career following his acquittal of child abuse charges three years ago.
The Bad singer was due to release his hotly anticipated new album later this year, but no release date has been announced yet.
A source said: "He has been in the studio for months. He wants to create an amazing album and won’t release anything until he is totally satisfied."
Meanwhile, Michael left his house in a wheelchair yesterday.
During a trip to shops with his children - Prince, 11, Paris, 10, and six-year-old Blanket - a minder pushed the star in the chair.
Michael wore pyjama bottoms for the outing, but covered his face in a mask, sunglasses, black towel and baseball cap.

"blanket" is the childs nickname, his real name is Prince Michael the Second.
Why do I know this? That is real sad.
Kev: Yes you did. There is a relevant hilarious episode of Southpark. Michaels nose falls off.
Are you kidding me (no pun intended)? They desolved years ago. I have heard Whacko is having money probs, maybe he needs to get stainless steel implants to replace the melting pastic ones?
this is aload of rubbish....i dont believe this for 1 moment
I'm a huge fan of mike n i think no matter how shit the collaboration is his music is always the best and everyone knows it! Yeah he does have a son called blanket but thats just a nickname his real name is Prince Michael Jackson II and he wouldn't be dissapointed that they wernt kids cuz he ent a fuckin pedo so all u h8rz go find sumone hu givez a shit about the crap that u chat
that guy who said hes a child molester & hasnt released a succesful album in years is ignorant..he doesnt need to prove his point...he did that with off the wall, thriller(the biggest selling of all time), bad(was the 2nd biggest selling), dangerous, HIStory were also successful...his last was his least successful album but it still went platinum...you talk garbage when you havent done anything to entertain many people...something michael has done with his music & dancing...a guy who poured out his heart to a dying boy, donating money for him to get better..than his parents file a lawsuit for more of his money..one of the greatest performers of all time, and then you say something like that..class act
Former King of Pop? since when did another artist take Jacksons crown???
