Jackson denies 'American Idol' reports

Michael Jackson has denied claims that he will be appearing on American Idol.

Recent reports claimed that the Thriller singer would join the show to mentor contestants before they performed some of his biggest hits in a special episode.

"There is absolutely no truth to the rumour that Michael Jackson is going to appear on American Idol," Jackson's representative Raymone Bain told Access Hollywood. "He has signed no agreements with anyone."

Executive producer Nigel Lythgoe also denied the claims: "It's not true. It's just not true. We won't be seeing him."

However, Lythgoe did promise fans that they could expect exciting news in the next few weeks, promising "the biggest thing to happen to Idol in five years".
