Michael Jackson lookalike Iraq war hero in legal battle after ‘moonwalking’ out of contract
Harrison signed up to perform in Trevor Chance's Legends show in 2014
A WAR hero who became a Michael Jackson tribute act “moonwalked” out of his contract, a court heard.
Decorated Iraq veteran, Craig Harrison, 31, signed up as Jacko in Trevor Chance’s Legends show at The Sands Venue in Blackpool in 2014.
But this year he sparked a legal fight that ran up huge legal bills by joining rival Blackpool show The Kings and Queen of Rock, Pop & Roll on the Central Pier.

Promoter Mr Chance told London’s High Court: “We invested time and money and here he was intending to go across the road to a competitor.”
His company argued there was a clause in Craig’s contract preventing this for 12 months.
But a judge ruled against an injunction to stop him performing because the application was delayed to damage the rival summer show.
