Michael Jackson's Thriller Jacket Goes on Auction Block this Weekend

(BEVERLY HILLS, Calif.) -- This weekend, the red jacket that Michael Jackson wore in his iconic video for "Thriller" will be put on the auction block in Beverly Hills, California.

Julien's Auctions estimates that it will fetch between $200,000 and $400,000.  However, auctioneer Darren Julien says there is already "interest up to close to a million" dollars.

Julien says the jacket should draw interest from both fans and museums.

"It's something that if a museum or institution were to buy, have it on display, it would attract millions of people from all over the world just to view it in person," he says.

The "Thriller" jacket isn't the only Michael Jackson item that will be up for grabs during the auction on Saturday and Sunday.  Julien's is also offering a stage-worn fedora, a signed sketch, various awards Jackson won, and the wig he wore at a London press conference to announce the This Is It tour that was later cancelled following his death.

Items connected to Bruce Springsteen, Madonna, Lady Gaga, Justin Bieber and other popular artists will also be part of the auction. Fans and potential buyers alike can browse the complete catalog at JuliensAuctions.com.

Michael Jackson Tribute: A Cappella "P.Y.T."

(CBS) - It's been almost two years, guys. June 25th is the anniversary of day we lost the King of Pop. Expect to see tributes to Michael Jackson to roll in all weekend. But it's going to be hard to top this a capella version of "P.Y.T. (Pretty Young Thing)" Thirteen-party harmony, performed by the one and only Mike Tompkins.

Pretty rocking, right? The only complaint to make is that he stops at one track. I'm guessing I'm not the only one who would listen to the whole "Thriller" album a capella.

The handsome and talented Mike Tompkins has a ton of great songs on his YouTube channel. (Personal fave: Katy Perry's "Firework.") Check out his website HERE. And look for his version of P.Y.T. on iTunes.
