Michael Jackson has ordered the promoters behind his 50-night residency in London to turn his new UK home into a replica of his former residence, Neverland ranch.

The Thriller singer — who is renting a £15million country estate for the duration of his shows at the O2 — has reportedly told firm AEG he wants a bowling alley built in the 15million country estate, and a fully-functioning funfair installed in the grounds.

“Michael is quite particular,” a source told British newspaper The Sun. “He’s missed living in Neverland since debts forced him to get rid of it four years ago.

“He thinks he can recreate a bit of its magic in Kent and concert bosses are happy to indulge him.

“He loves bowling, so has insisted an alley be created and he’s never lost his love of funfairs, so has demanded one be built in the grounds.

“Michael will be bringing his kids with him throughout the run.

“Prince Michael, Paris Michael and Prince Michael II are all under 12 years old, so should really enjoy all the rides and amusements their father will provide for them.”
