Michael Jackson is being advised on how to save his career by former chart rival Prince. The eccentric star has reportedly turned to Prince, who he battled for pop supremacy in the 80s, for help with his comeback. The Purple Rain singer is said to have told Michael to play a series of acoustic shows in Las Vegas to prove to the world that he is still an amazing talent. A source told the New York Post newspaper, "Prince has been suggesting that Michael should play a sequence of unplugged concerts in Las Vegas. No gimmicks, costume changes, smoke or mirrors, just his voice."
It seems Prince has had a change of heart towards his one-time rival. Earlier this year, the diminutive star snubbed Michael's offer of a joint tour to help him re-launch himself on the world stage. Prince was said to be concerned that the hype surrounding Michael's comeback would overshadow the concerts, and he wasn't prepared to be the Beat It singer's support act.
