Singer Michael Jackson will not be appearing on the current series of 'American Idol' as a mentor, according to his representative.
US media reports had suggested that the singer would be making an appearance on the show for a special programme where the contestants would be performing his hits.
However, Jackson's representative Raymone Bain told 'Access Hollywood': "There is absolutely no truth to the rumour that Michael Jackson is going to appear on 'American Idol'."
"He has signed no agreements with anyone," the representative said.
Executive producer Nigel Lythgoe also dismissed the reports, saying: "It's not true. It's just not true. We won't be seeing him."
