MICHAEL JACKSON's iconic red and black THRILLER jacket is set to go on tour - to raise money for charity. The item, which Jackson autographed for his longtime costume designers Dennis Tompkins and Michael Bush, was snapped up by American commodities broker Milton Verret for $1.8 million at a California auction last month (Jun11). Verret is now hoping to put the jacket to good use by placing it on display in a sponsored trek around the world. Money raised from the global tour will be donated to organisations benefiting sick children - a cause that was always close to Jackson's heart.
Make sure that jacket hits Toronto as we have a great hospital for sick kids here.
