Michael Jackson's nephew, T.J. JACKSON, is to step into his uncle's moonwalking shoes for a new musical with singer Taylor Dayne.
The King of Pop was planning to hit the stage in Los Angeles in the ambitious production of Sisterella after wrapping his This Is It concerts in London, but his death last summer (Jun09) forced his fellow producers to rethink the whole show.
And now Tito Jackson's son will take his place when the show opens next year (11).
He'll play the role of Prince Jean Luc - the role originally developed for his famous uncle.
Tell It To My Heart hitmaker Dayne will play wicked stepmother Dahlia in the production.
