I just got a call from an industry friend in L.A. who urged me not to believe the hype. She said Michael Jackson’s body won’t be at Staples Center for the public memorial service as previously reported.
She said Michael’s private memorial was held last night for over 1,000 family and friends and that his body (minus his brain) will be interred in a crypt at Forest Lawn Cemetery this morning.
According to UK’s Daily Mirror, the L.A. coroner’s office is withholding Michael’s brain as evidence in an ongoing potential homicide investigation — although no charges have been brought.
His brain will either be cremated or placed in the crypt at a later date. The family will make that ultimate decision.
TMZ.com has the live feed of the motorcade (sponsored by Rolls Royce and Range Rover) that left the Jackson residence in Encino on its way to Forest Lawn for the funeral — not a memorial.
She said a casket will be onstage at Staples, but the public is being duped into believing his body will be at Staples. I don’t know what to believe. Judging from the pics, it sure looks like a funeral to me.

Ironically, Micheal played the scarecrow in the musical “the wiz” and now he’s being buried without a brain according to an article:
Michael Jackson to be buried without his brain:
WORLD EXCLUSIVE by David Gardner in Los Angeles
Michael Jackson will be buried this week– without his brain. As his family tries to finalise details for the King of Pop’s funeral on Tuesday they have been told it will be held back for tests.
They faced the grim choice of waiting up to three weeks for Jackson’s brain to be returned to them or go ahead and bury him without it – which they have decided to do.
Oops, Sorry Sandra I didn’t read your entire post to see that you already mention the “no brain”
Nobody’s trying to dupe anybody. They said that all over the news last night. If I was the family I wouldn’t want the body there either. Thousands of distraut fans who are saying goodbye who knows what might happen
CNN just said the body will be at the Staples Center..I’m inclined to believe it will be an empty casket..Why would they be at the cemetary with the body..Then take it to the Staples Center..That just doesn’t make sense..
JustSayin
well, if the casket remains closed then no, he’s not in it. if they open the casket, there you have it. personally, i wouldn’t have his body at the memorial service. lay that man to rest and lets move on as best possible.
we dont need the body….. omg at ‘no brain’ i would be happy just to pay my respects as a fan…
Thats understandable…his body shouldn’t be there anyway. thats too much, we know he’s dead. The only people who are entitled to see him in his casket have done so, I have no argument with that.
So if no body is gonna be there - why they talking about flying an empty casket to the Center? Then I just read they are gonna get the FAA involved because so many news ppl flying over the Staples Center and they are worried about their Chopper driver being safe. We will soon find out…..
i dont think the body should be there anyway, those fans would probably go crazy trying to get down to see him.
they have the video feed at the cemetery and they are showing them put the casket in the car, now they are headed to the staples center
Well said Krysi
That’s exactly how I feel about it too. This man lived his life for his audience/fans. We can’t expect to have him like that in death too - his family should rightfully be allowed to obtain closure with this minus the public.
i guess it is closure for the fans, hell some fans still think Tupac and Elvis is still alive. being i can’t view any footage im going to lunch and eat hospital food.
Cnn just reported that MJ body will be at the staples center
i hope they will replay it again later, the way they did princes Dianna. I was up watching her funeral 1am NYC time, I was pregnant, misserable and was peeing every minute. The service was beautiful the way they carried her lead casket…priceless.
Its gonna be closed. And its on its way there now. I dont believe hes in it though.
I doubt they had an empty casket at the funeral service this morning. Unless they switch caskets on the way to the Staples Center I think he’ll be there..
CNN IS REPLAYING IT AGAIN A 4PM
yeah he’ll be there…..
Are they showing the concert? Or just the outside with people standing around.
ONLY Mike can turn a memorial service INTO a media circus
I GUESS that what comes with being the Most Famous person on the face of THE PLANET !!!
R.I.P. to The G.O.A.T. of ALL G.O.A.T.S
remember the time when we first meet - just remember the timmmmmmmmmmmmmmme when we first meet aaayeee
iscream Says:
Are they showing the concert? Or just the outside with people standing around.
****
I was wondering that too, since its for the fans i would think they would let the cameras in. i hope so
OK elove for real..i cant think of no one else who holds that title
they are showing shots fron inside the staples center now so it will be televised. woot
the media duped the public in to beliving it WONT be a prosession to keep it some what subdued they just said they always planned on body being there
R.I.P. to The G.O.A.T. of ALL G.O.A.T.S
—————————————–
you better know iT! He even trumped his idol Elvis, yea thats right WHYTE people i said it.
try this link if u cant get on cnn
http://www.bnonews.com/mj/
the body is to be at the memorial.
sandra u need to update your info
On the Staples center website it says services are running 10min behind and they will broadcast a 10 minute warning or something like that…now there’s a live picture of the outside….
here he comes….im crying
The funeral procession just left forest lawn
My heart just dropped all over again.
This is it yall…..*teary eyed*
final goodbye..AHH why mike dont go!!!!!!!!!1
Dang the closed the HIGHWAY…what celeb can do that only a politicin not a musical celeb!!! go head mike omg u will be missed
lawd when those cars pull up to the staple center its going to be an apocalypse!
how far are they?!
yea its gonna get CRAZY
Micheal “gots to be there” he will not let his fans down even in death.
and whats sad spongebob is im looking at the cars on the highway like, why the hell am I so interested in watching a cars every curve and turn just to reach another location LMAO???!!!
SO MAD I CAN’T SEEEEEEEE IT..
As it happens.
Mike I got you when you get home.
I know right Kyrsi!! im bawling at work again!
RIP MJ but I am only watchin to see the folks still on this side of the earth sing so they better have cameras inside..lol I want to hear J Hud, MC, Whitney, Stevie and Usher. I need to go get lunch early so I can be back and not miss a min of the singing program.
@krysi
Me too! lol I was sittin here watchin the cars roll down the freeway cryin like this man is my brother…and gettin mad cuz the cars on the other side werent stoppin!!
I don’t know what to feel right now, its like Im watching a family members funeral on CNN, or at least somebody I knew…..I just feel sad, that after this its done, no more Mike.
Lawd….thats going to be so weird.
i only get 40 min lunch trying to time it right!

man all of these live feeds keep cuttin in and out
aw hell…I guess they got off an exit to another damn HIGHWAY!
LA a trip K lol
NO NO they pulling up , they pulling up NOW!!
I want one of those programs!
This is to much of a circus and I think its morbid that tickets were given away and people being excited about winning. Let this man rest, no one cared a few weeks ago when he was alive and a child molester. I love me some Michael and I just feel like so many people want to jump on the bandwagon. It took me forever to get to work because people looking and staring.
they will be on ebay for 500 dollars in 5…….4………3……..
spongebobfan Says:
they will be on ebay for 500 dollars in 5…….4………3……..

And I wanna know why CNN nominated John Hooper to go to the memorial services if he can’t listen and pay attention to what da fukk is going on….tom bout he can’t reflect on what Smokey said during that moment of CNN silence because his mama was on the phone, or he was in a damn conversation ….WTH?? WHATs CNN phone number!!!??

OK Krysi- make me want to go down town ATL and knock on their door- well kick down there door and throw something at someone..

mariah sounding shaky
@Daisy
YOUR GURL Mariah is singing !!!
im crying

Mariah sounds horrible
she did bring trey lorenz out
where she dig trey up from?! get it!
Trey Lorenz still has it
MC sounds GOOD!!!! Sang Trey
she did get it together!
@elove she sure is and that is my sisters girl so I have to hold it down for her on here..lol She looks nice and yall know Trey sings back up for her
Mariah had a really ROUGH start but Trey saved the song
break it down mariah!!
LAWD, that just tore me up!!
Queen looks nice
maya still living!?!?!!?
A poem by Maya!?! How many folks get that?
I have no speakers. I thought I was on news yesterday Elizabeth Taylor was give eulogy but y’all saying she isn’t coming. Maybe that was for the family service?
@Yvonne I dont think she sounded that darn bad now..lol She has had better days and moments but it wasnt that rough of a start..lol
NAW The Queen actually LOOKS Amazing !!!
I have to give it to her (Do YOUR THANG Ms. Lady)
wow this is deep!
@sponge..lol LOL yes Maya is still on this side of the ground
I am so mad that I cannot view the ceremony!!!! But I am trying to listen to it on the radio.
:CRY:
OK, I am REALLY gonna cry now. I absolutely LOVE this song
Im very excited this is turing out to be a GREAT show and not some circus
OMG, Lionel just came on stage! U talking bout breaking down!
On the Real
WHOEVER have the rights to this and puts it on DVD will become an instant billionaire BECAUSE I KNOW I’m going to buy it if it becomes available !!!
OMG Lionel Ritchie is performing THAT SONG I LUV so much
@Daisy: Girl, stop! The beginning was the WORST. Anytime Mariah starts to sing her older material she sounds like crap. Maybe it’s because she has to hit those high notes :shrugging:
Lionel plz stop it.
Ok what am I missing…..everything stopped again
“we had him”…..Lord knows we did…..
JESUS, why does it feel like a part of this world is gone???!! Something just feels empty to me, and I can’t explain why
ok berry gordy’s on stage now. MJ looked up to him. This is extremely sad. In the casket or not, seeing a casket there rings home…
Krysi that was deep…maya is greatest poet ever..
they put this together in what 3-4 days? nice
Maya is one of the greatest to ever do it…krysi.. I thought I was the only one that felt EMPTY… I feel like I felt him.. virgo to virgo.. I understood what he was feeling…
@Krysi: sending a hug your way
the casket is closed….
i hear the lil bo from britian got talent gonna do whos loving you
you aint never lied E watch preorders will be on Amazon by the end of the week.
I wonder how long each person has to speak
I just realized he’s still under the spotlight
Barry’s words are Just CHILLING (Too Much to Handle…)
My TWO most emotional moments were the 25th Live TV performance AND that Billie Jean video … The BEST & Most Awesome dance moves I’VE EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE
When he spinned THREE TIMES and then proceeded to Pull up his pants AND do the Standing-on-My-Toes FREEZE POSE …
I LOST MY MF-ING MIND WHEN I FIRST SAW THAT S-H-I-T !!!!!
Mike IS The MAN
they probably using stuff that was gonna be in the Concert
You know what else is causing that emptiness. There will NEVER be another MJ. An amazing old soul child singer with a family variety show, CARTOON, etc who not only didn’t get washed up or fail only got bigger and better! He was the first the last the only. There will never ever eva be another entertainer whose star shines so long and so bright.
Goat you got me thinking the other day bout what we talked bout him saying how is life would end and being right you said it didn’t have to be that way. I am on the fence about that one. Maybe it is sort of a preminition people have about thier life. I had a cousin (first cousin we were very close) He always said he wasn’t going to live to be an old man I used to hush him. He lived hard and actually died at 22. I can’t decide if people put that energy out there and it manifests itself or if they truly know on a gut level how and when they will go.
Yes it is put together very nicely…unlike some other failed attempt…
Any thing is plausible / possible. HOLLYWOOD. - Merlin the Magician’s wand was made from holly wood. It was used to do magic and cast spells so……
Lawd, that video just tore me up again!!!!
hi richie
stevie wonder.
I
Stevie Wonder. Another musical genius
Aww I

Same team Yvonne and Stevie is going to make me cry
I know KrysiJ. They r really trying to make me cry @ work! I’m really trying to hold my composure.
stevie is sad.. like he said… he didn’t think he’d live to see that moment…
@wiggy… I’m reading this book that kinda explains that.. and the bible does too.. the power is in our words.
I want Stevie to do something with that hairline bless his heart
Ok, Stevie got me…
You know what else is causing that emptiness. There will NEVER be another MJ.

—————————————————
IM SO SORRY FOR WHAT I SAID, i will never speak a bad word about this man again as long az I live
nope, she didn’t. just a bunch of screaming and no melody whatsoever.
dammit I’m too thru
I am so tired of AL!!!
Aww this is very well put together! Good job to the producers!
Coa is it a good book? If so whats the name? I know I mos def believe in the power of posotive attraction. so why not negative attraction. But something in me just doesn’t want to believe the power of the universe would pull someone early because of a gut feeling they have. Thats what puts me on the fence makes me feel its the Lord giving them a premonition so they live life to the fullest.
@yvonne79, me too. I wasn’t hoping that wouldn’t let him speak. But unfortunately…..
Don’t get me wrong.. but can you guys see the parallels between MJ and Jesus?? (not saying he was Jesus.. but there are similarities)
The world shunned him and he continued to do good and love people… he was world reknowned and hated at the same time. He was slaughtered in the media.. his character was constantly compromised and he still continued to love… the media and the people around him helped aid in his demise…we ( people in general) drove this man crazy for doing what was in his heart.
The devil is a liar… and Al sharpton needs to sit down please.
The FACT that as big of a STAR Mike was …
He ALSO was far more Giving-n-Charitable than the STAR he was makes ANYTHING ILL-SPOKEN about him SO INSANE to me !!!!!
Although I am tired of Al, he brought the funk in his speech today!!
THATS RIGHT THATS RIGHT AL….TELL IT
“Every time he got knocked down, he GOT back up”
and don’t you whyte MF ever FORGET IT!!!
Preach Rev Al its about his message not the mess I am going to have to use that phrase..lol
@wiggy
The four agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz… it’s a good book.. can’t summarize right now.. listening to Rev Al..trying to reconcile this account and blog w/ ya’ll @ the same time.
TELL EM AL!!!
He got coo points for that one!!
Come on now Rev Al PREACH PREACHA!!!!!!!!! If they family didnt want him to speak then he wouldnt be speaking..lol Simple as that
I take back what I said bout Al… he came real with that one..his yelling was just a lil annoying.
AL GOT ME FIRED UP!! NOW THATS A SPEECH!!
john mayer.
Get it John Mayer. I thought he was going to sing “Waiting on the World to change”
oh GOD….I just wish I could hear him sing one more time…this shyt hurt so bad.
Human nature why why..lol Alright now John
Im listening to them play this song on the guitar…and ya just wish Michael was alive to sing it himself….we’ll never hear him alive again…

Aw lawd Paris. I’m done!!
I’m so glad they stopped his daughter BECAUSE I was about too START BALLING LIKE A BABY !!!
Still crying I am done
My entire family is crying. I am torn up.
Lol @ Coa. You refuse to believe them aint his kids. I always said I at least thought blanket was his.
@Elove and Daisy: me too! Lil Paris got me. Those kids are missing the only parent they had. I can’t imagine what they must be going thru
That was such a sad, beautiful, and rewarding ceremony
it was trully fit for a king
Goodbye Michael
@elove I need a
I lost it once babygirl started talking or trying to talk but she wanted the world to know her daddy was GOOD to her
I can’t and I won’t until maury says it… eff that…
@Daisy
I GOT YOU Baby… Your Tears and Your
I still can’t believe he is dead
Thanks Daisy
I went over to NB site and I saw the pic of Chris Breezy everybody is crying except me I swear Im so hard
wondering did any of the Debarges or @ least James reached out to Janet.
THAT WAS A REAL HOMEGOING CELEBRATION FIT FOR A KING!
Usher, Marlon, Katherine and MJ’s daughter did me in. I could not hold back the tears. Seeing Jennifer Hudson sing after dealing with the loss of most of her immediate family was just amazing.
Larry King is purely AMAZING !!!!!
Such words of wisdom and respect
(Far Exceeded my expectations is SO WELL PUT…)
Usher and Paris broke me down. Nice memorial. RIP MJ
MJ’s career started the year I was born. 1968. I was born almost two weeks before MLK was killed.
Thanks elove! I needed that!
@Mizz it takes alot for me to cry and my sister is always telling me I am very un emotional but DEATH is the one thing I have NEVER handled well at all it SHUTS me down every single time I am no more good..lol
WOW! Paris did it for me…..still tearing up! RIP!!
I had to turn from the coverage or I was going to be even more of a mess at work. I will be on CNN all night once I get home..lol
@Daisy: I am the same way too! I don’t handle death well at all.
OMG i missed his daughter, but just saw it on the net when i logged back in. tears.
I lost it when Usher sang and Paris spoke…DAMN!!!
MJ son hair looks much blonder as a child, good looking kids
