Michael Jackson's jewelled glove for sale

Michael Jackson’s famous jewelled glove is going up for auction.

Julien’s Auctions in Los Angeles says Jackson is also unloading the grandiose gates that once led to his Neverland Ranch, along with more than 2,000 other personal items, during a five-day auction next year.

The King of Pop’s possessions will be on display before the auction begins on April 21.

Bids will be accepted in person and online. The sale will be broadcast live on Auction Network in the US.

Jackson plans to donate a portion of the proceeds to MusiCares, a charitable organisation founded by the Recording Academy to help musicians in need.
