Michael Jackson has said he wants to be joined on stage for his comeback tour by a disabled child.

The King of Pop reportedly said he wants a child with no limbs or one that's in a wheelchair to join him at his upcoming O2 Arena shows.

According to The Sun newspaper, tour promoters AEG Live allegedly sent an email to various London casting agencies looking for children between the ages of 4 and 16 and with "a visible disability".

A source said: 'Michael plans to have kids from all backgrounds on stage to fit in with his message of world peace and love.'
