Jackson 'looking to publish memoirs'

Michael Jackson is reportedly looking for a publishing house to put his autobiography into print.

The popstar is allegedly courting book companies in New York in an effort to get a large advance on the book, which would help to ease his financial difficulties.

"Despite all that's known about Michael, he is still one of our most intriguing celebrities and if he's truly candid and reveals some good secrets, his memoirs could easily be a huge bestseller," a publishing insider told The Daily Record.

It was reported last month that Jackson was planning a 30-city world tour rather than a Las Vegas residency.
