For at least 50 nights in the upcoming year, Michael Jackson will be seen in public without his hospital mask.

Just last week, the singer announced he would be hitting the stage once again for 10 shows at England’s O2 Arena. Days later, 40 additional dates were added.

Within a short period of time, every single ticket for Jackson’s 50 concerts were snatched up. Approximately 750,000 were sold today at a rate of 11 per second. In total, over 1 million seats were bought since an earlier presale.

Michael, who has not done a full concert since 2001, claims these perfomances will be his last in London. The first half of his run begins July 9 and goes through September. The gigs then resume next January with the finale on February 24.
