113lbs? Yikes, that is scary.

I think he liked kids because they are innocent, not conniving and non-judgmental - they accepted him for what he was ... the same way that Jesus talked about kids.
It appeared that a great number of adults in his life were manipulative, controlling and the public was certainly judgmental.

I agree 100%
Thanks Hoax!

Looks like the memorial will be at the Staples Center on Tuesday.....just 1 week and 5 days after his death..

Good thing the B-Ball season is over or Kobe & company would have to hurdle over the coffin while dribbling the ball.

dilligaf · 07-03-2009, 05:59 AM

It's to bad b-ball is done. Kobe and co could just pick him up and haul his a&& off the court.

The newest song on the country charts is about Michael Jackson......

The title......"How Can We Miss You When You Won't Go Away?"

The report I heard on CNN was that Michael weighed 113 lbs, no food found in stomach, only pills and the needle marks were around his heart where they tried to resuscitate him.

Hubby checked on E-Bay this morning to see if anyone was selling tickets to Michael Jackson's Memorial. One guy was selling 2 tickets for $2 million. Some were for sale in the $100,000.00 range. They have all since been removed probably because the tickets actually say "not for re-sale" on them. Idiot people always trying to make big bucks!!

I saw all the mass of cars on TV waiting to get into Dodger Stadium just to pick up their tickets.....what a circus. Speaking of circus, I understand that the Ringling Bros. circus opens at the Staples Center the day after Michael's memorial.....how fitting.

I watched the entire memorial and it was nice. I got a little teary-eyed when Mariah Carey sang "I'll Be There".

Al Sharpton got a little political (mentioning the black president), but the ending of his talk was OK.

Angelinos behaved....the # of people was a lot less that they had expected.

It was a nice event. I'm glad I wasn't a commuter on the 101 between 8 &9 this morning...they closed it for the caravan.

rod · 07-07-2009, 02:11 PM

I didn't see any of the memorial on tv today but then again I would never sit around on a beautiful summer day watching the boob tube. I predict that some of his misic will be around for a long time but he won't ever be a legend like Elvis. Neverland won't become another Graceland. He had too many skeletons in his closet for any sane person to worship.

I just don't believe it!

I just watched some on yahoo, and I think the brothers and Janet should of taken off their glasses! I am such a fan, but freaked me out that all were inside a building, hiding behind glasses??

ups1990 · 07-08-2009, 07:04 AM

I had no idea that MJ, made Magic Johnson a better point guard. I thought it was Pat Riley.

moreluck · 07-08-2009, 07:09 AM

ups1990..

Remember Pat Riley's hair ???

I think that was the only part I saw. All of them dressed identical with the same flower and their shades on. Did they think they were still the Jackson Five performing??

Wifey says the 11 year old daughter spoke. How did that go?

If it was not planned, then it was very poignant.

If it was staged, then shame on the Jacksons.

UpstateNYUPSer · 07-09-2009, 04:09 AM

More, I had not seen the footage until this morning but it certainly appears to me that it was staged, which is indeed sad and shame on the Jacksons for putting her through that.

HUH ??!!

A&E's Jackson family reality show a thriller

By James Hibberd James Hibberd Sun Jul 12, 10:36 pm ET

LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) – A&E is working on a reality project with the Jackson family which could gain newfound viewer interest in the wake of the King of Pop's death.
The network commissioned a one-hour special following Jackie, Tito, Jermaine, Marlon and Randy that was originally intended to serve as a "backdoor pilot" for a potential series. The project was commissioned months ago and producers have finished shooting footage that followed Jackson family members as they readied a new album and reunion tour.
A&E planned to air the result as a special, tentatively titled "The Jackson Family," next year, taking a "wait and see" approach and gauging viewer reaction before deciding whether to order the project as a series.
After Michael's unexpected death last month and subsequent intensive media coverage, the question for A&E becomes: What now?
Producers have not shot any additional footage with the family since Jackson's death, leaving the network with a project that's still attractive -- one that uses footage and interviews capturing the current incarnation of The Jacksons as entertainers, entrepreneurs and family members -- yet also has a glaring narrative omission hanging over its current form.
A&E's special will almost certainly have to change to reflect recent events. But the network has not yet decided the best course of action.
"We have started discussing internally and with the family but have not yet decided what direction to take with the show," said A&E executives, in a statement. "We are respecting the family's wishes right now, and at the appropriate time we will all decide what direction this program to take, so stay tuned."
The situation is not entirely unlike TLC's recent wrangling of "Jon & Kate Plus 8," where the collapse of the Gosselins' marriage disrupted the previously agreed-upon "reality" of the reality show.

OMG!!!!!! Is nothing sacred anymore. I think I am going to cancel my cable subscription.

over9five · 07-14-2009, 09:52 AM

That show wouldn't even have been watched before Micheals death. Now it's a gold mine.

moreluck · 07-14-2009, 10:52 AM

LaToya wants to know where the $1-2 million in cash is in the house. "Michael always kept the cash in the house" Yeah, I suppose she'll want to file an insurance claim for that amount too, at least.

over9five · 07-15-2009, 07:32 AM

Latoya told some British paper that Micheal was murdered for his money. She knows who did it (won't say who), and won't rest till that person pays.

moreluck · 07-15-2009, 09:11 AM

British Tabloids pay for interviews......Latoya would sell her mom for a few bucks !!

Sorry to revive such a "sacred" thread, but has any one else seen this. Was perusing CNN's website and came upon this:

Jackson originally was scheduled to be laid to rest August 29, on what would have been his 51st birthday.
The private ceremony will still take place at Glendale Forest Lawn Memorial Park in Glendale, California, according to a statement from Ken Sunshine.
No reason was given for the change in date.
The ceremony "will be limited to family and close friends," the statement said.
Jackson died June 25 of cardiac arrest. The famed entertainer was 50.
