Psst... Is Michael Jackson planning a clothing range with Christian Audigier?

Depending on which way you look at this tidbit from Hollywood today, the news that Michael Jackson is planning a clothing range with Christian Audigier is either super exciting or super scary.

The King of Pop, who celebrated his 50th birthday last month with the Ed Hardy designer (pictured above), is said to be in the early stages of planning a fashion line.

"Michael is taking this very seriously," an insider at Life & Style magazine reveals. "It's still in the developing stages, but it's going to be big...This will be a major comeback for Michael. He's dedicating a lot of his time and money to this venture."

While it might sound ludicrous, some of Jackson's most memorable fashion items are actually making a bit of comeback, e.g. leather gloves, gangsta hats. But with Audigier on board, I am envisaging a heck of a lot of razzle dazzle sequins... What are your thoughts?

I Am a big fan of Michael Jackson I loved his music since I was little. People say I was born in the wrong decade(in the 90's), Im more old fashion in wired ways and I prefer the music and style of the 60's,70's but most likely the 80's!.

I think its a great idea for him to start something spectacular to this new generation and make people my age know what it was like when music was more innocent, made more sense, and less vulgarity in it.

Ugh.. Maybe Michael Jackson will bring an over-the-top edge to, nearly wrote Ed Gein's, uh, Ed Hardy's generic Tattoo prints splattered in 3 year olds waterpaint "garb". Less US chav, more mJ Satin.
