Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeheeeeeeeeeeeee!!!
The crowd went wild as Michael Jackson strode purposefully on stage and picked up a microphone.
Was this the moment he was going to break into song and end his years of silence?
Er, no.
The fallen star just muttered a few words... then slunk back into his self-imposed obscurity.
The huge anti-climax came at an exclusive showbiz party in Los Angeles to mark fashion designer Christian Audigier's 50th birthday.
A-list guests - including Britney Spears and Pamela Anderson - went into a frenzy as Audigier introduced the "King of Pop".
But all they got as Jacko, 49, stepped onto the platform was a whispered, "Hello". He added politely: "Christian is the King of Fashion" before turning on his heels and trouping off.
An insider said: "Everyone went mad when he grabbed the microphone. The mood was electric.
"But sadly there was no impromptu gig. It was a shame because he looked in pretty good shape. He was obviously just putting in an appearance for his old pal Christian."
