We are reliably informed Wacko is a massive fan of X Factor and has been watching the show every week online in the US.

He has been so impressed by the London boyband he has asked to meet Louis Walsh Louis Walsh (born August 5, 1952 in Kiltimagh, County Mayo, Ireland) is a manager in the music industry, and a judge on the ITV1 show The X Factor, which made him famous as a television personality rather than a manager.  in Ireland and talk about the boys supporting him on tour in the UK.

Aston, Marvin, Ortise and JB fought back from harsh comments by Simon Cowell last week after he called their version of Britney track Baby One More Time "lame".

But the message from Michael Jackson is sure to give the boys an added boost tonight as they fight to be in the final three.

They are performing two tracks - Umbrella by Rihanna and Westlife's ballad I'm Already There - which they are hoping will be their ticket through to the final. A source said: "Hearing you have Michael Jackson as a fan is a massive compliment and is sure to lift their spirits this week.

"The competition is really hotting up. Last week JLS struggled a little with the Britney track and they are out to prove themselves.

"Having a potential tour with Michael Jackson isn't going to take any pressure off - it has just motivated them to push on and win the competition.

"Michael has been an avid fan of the X Factor since the beginning.

"He loves musical themed reality shows and keeps up with it on the internet.

"When JLS came on, he was immediately drawn to them because he said they reminded him of a young Jackson 5.

"They would be a perfect warm up act for the UK dates of his tour.

"Michael can, and has changed his mind about touring for the last couple of years.

"But if he follows through with his word this time, JLS could be catapulted into the spotlight all over the world."
