SWANSEA schoolboy Shaheen Jafargholi is to present a radio show dedicated to his hero Michael Jackson, the Post can reveal.

The 12-year-old from Mount Pleasant will dedicate the hour-long show to Jackson after wowing crowd's at the King of Pop's memorial service in Los Angeles, America, on Tuesday.

Dylan Thomas Community School pupil Shaheen presented a show on Swansea Bay Radio in May during his time on Britain's Got Talent, and will return on Bank Holiday Monday, August 31.

Swansea Bay Radio breakfast presenter Jay Curtis told the Post: "The last time we had Shaheen presenting his own show, it was a massive success. He was a natural when it came to choosing songs and building up a rapport with listeners. Now he's performed to one billion people, he's bound to have the whole city tuning in."

On Tuesday he wowed crowds at the Staples Center in LA with his performance of Who's Lovin' You and spent two hours socialising with the Jackson family after the concert. According to reports, he is now set to earn around £10 million over the next four years.
 
Sorry to go against the grain but I wasn't that impressed with his rendition the other day it sounded to me that his voice is almost about to break.

Not really that enamoured with him going on shows saying he is the new Michael Jackson and that the mantle is passed to him, also his family are pushing him so that aint a gfood thing for someone his age as we all know.
 
He was good, but nothing special imo. I see he is gaining fame out of his memorial performance.
 
am i the only one who thinks his voice is just bad? his runs are not smooth, its forced, pitchy and out of tune in places...and that comment that he said "Michael has passed the torch onto me" made me wanna be sick
 
I think Shaheen has an extraordinary voice. He is very talented and i do hope he will become a famous singer.
 
Just another one riding MJ's coattails for success...
 
Michael wasn't thinking like you and he actually appreciated Shaheen. Mike invited Shaheen to perform with him at the 02 Arena! I'm sure that means something...

:lol: That sounds like a tabloid rumour to me. And of course MJ appreciated people imitating him, he had an ego for that kind of stuff.

Tabloid rumor? Did you watch the memorial? Why would Kenny Ortega state that if it wasn't true? :scratch:

That doesn't mean the kid is not talented. We all have someone who inspires us in life. Shaheen has Michael just the way Michael had James Brown. I don't see anything wrong with that.
 
guys guys GUYS! woah! You seem to forget: MJ liked the lad! and whats more, while that wasnt even HIS best performance, you must remember! He was at a MEMORIAL! he was more than likely overcome with emotion, not only for singing his idols song, but singing it while seeing MJ in a CASKET?! he had to be atleast abit choked up!

If mike liked him, dont you think you're being harsh? if you wanna see his potential, look at his audition on britains got talent!! it was WAY better.

lighten up on the kid, hes still mastering his craft! ;)
 
I don't think its that he's not talented just that he ain't as talented as they are all saying and its foolish of people and himself to be saying hes the new Michael Jackson.

Does not anyone see the irony of a 12 year old boy being touted in this way?
