Singers Robbie Williams and Whitney Houston are set to make their respective comebacks at the O2 Arena in London, England, next year.
In case you’ve been living under rock, that’s the same venue where Michael Jackson was set to perform.
According to London’s Evening Standard, AEG has been looking for some big names to fill the 23 dates in early 2010 that Jackson was supposed to perform.
Both Williams, 35, and Houston, 45, are releasing new albums this year.

Williams new album, Reality Killed the Video Star, will be released in October.
