The Thriller hitmaker's relatives are in the country ahead of two tribute shows in honor of the late King of Pop next week (begs12Dec11).
The concerts will benefit victims of the March (11) double

survivors of the tragedies.
In a post on his Twitter.com page on Saturday (10Dec11), he writes,
"My brothers and I made rice cakes with the children of the Akabane
orphanage, in Tokyo. Many of these children lost their parents in
the recent tsunami."
