Get ready for another reunion!! Jermaine Jackson told the Australian Associated Press yesterday that the Jackson 5 will be reuniting and that it will be just like old times!! He says the brothers, including Michael, are going to go on a world tour next year AND that Janet will be their opening act!!

Jermaine said,

"It is just the timing, so what we've been doing is working on the music and all the logistics. It is going to be more like a family affair, Janet's going to open and, of course, the original Jackson 5... Michael, Randy and the whole family. We're in the studio, we're planning on being out there next year."

I can't wait - This is one concert I NEED to be at!!

UPDATE: Michael Jackson's publicist says Jermaine is lying and Michael will NOT be getting back together with his brothers!! “My brothers and sisters have my full love and support, and we’ve certainly shared many great experiences, but at this time I have no plans to record or tour with them. I am now in the studio developing new and exciting projects that I look forward to sharing with my fans in concert soon.” This just breaks my heart :(
