MJ's Dancer -- I Wanna Join the Cirque

All sorts of people connected to Michael Jackson are bursting at the sequined seams to be a part of the upcoming MJ-themed Cirque du Soleil show -- including one of the dancers from Michael's "This Is It" tour.

TMZ has learned Danielle Rueda-Watts -- one of the 12 dancers picked by Jackson for the London concerts -- has actually worked with the Cirque before (on the "Love" show) and she tells us it would be "great to work with these people again."

As we first reported, the first Cirque show will open in the fall of 2011 and will be focused heavily on dancing -- with the trademark Cirque acrobatics.

Watts just happens to be a master of all of the above ... not to mention a pro at pole dancing.

    This Is It DVD: Travis Payne "Michael loves illusion. He understands the process of illusion and he allows time for that process."

    Peter Pan: "To die would be a great adventure."

    Michael Jackson: "It's an adventure. A great adventure. There's nothing to be nervous about. Just beLIEve and have faith."

    This Is It DVD: Michael Cotten – "he's Peter Pan laughing his ass off."

    Frank DiLeo "Michael contacted me about making a movie in 2008 but then got involved in these concerts and nothing ever came of it."

    Frank DiLeo – co-producer – Michael Jackson's Moonwalker 1987
    Frank DiLeo – co-producer – Michael Jackson's This Is It 2009

    I recall Michael Bearden saying something along those lines in an interview. Orianthi and the aerialist and MJ in one bed for the set of Dirty Diana. So interesting that we have news of Ori having a gig at Neverland, then that weird matress salesman on TMZ saying he provided beds for the Jackson family and now there's the aerialist and her desire to rejoin Circe. All this must be linked somehow if only my brain would make the connection. Any ideas peoples?
