MJ To Have Anonymous Burial

Aug 8, 2009 Author: Shan | Filed under: Michael Jackson

A portion of the pop icon’s brain that was removed last month for additional drug testing has reportedly been reunited with his body, which currently resides at Forest Lawn Cemetery in Los Angeles.

“ET first broke the news that Michael Jackson’s body would be laid to rest at Forest Lawn cemetery in the Hollywood Hills; it will reportedly be an unmarked grave, because the Jackson family is worried about security and vandals who could desecrate the site,” says Diane.

“According to reports, Michael’s burial will be anonymous, with no formal ceremony or fanfare,” continues Diane. “Only one or two family members — some say La Toya and brother Randy — would be present as witnesses. But clearly the family is still divided on whether Neverland could still be a factor.”
In Jermaine Jackson’s new “Larry King Live” interview, the older Jackson Five brother says that he’d like to see Michael buried at his Neverland Ranch, but other family members have conflicting opinions.
Diane adds that the Los Angeles Times had an interesting revelation: “Michael Jackson was scheduled to undergo a second physical exam before additional insurance coverage for his concerts would go into effect. According to the report, the $17.5 million policy would not pay out if cancelled concerts were related to illegal drug use.”

And is Michael Jackson worth more in death than he was in life? Diane says that hard drives, reportedly containing many of Michael’s unreleased songs, are missing from the King of Pop’s Holmby Hills home.

“They are said to have been loaded by movers after Michael died and are now at Havenhurst,” says Diane. “Of course, those songs could stand to make millions.”

The Simpson sisters, Ashlee and Jessica, were out on town — and Jessica got really wasted. You can probably see in the image that it appears as if her sis is carrying her around.

We do realize that she’s having a tough time, but someone please tell her to stop the ‘dumb blonde’ act.

Update:

News on the grapevine is that Papa Joe Simpson and his daughter Ashlee Simpson are thinking of recording an album of Michael Jackson covers. Oh, puh-lease!

Dame Elizabeth Taylor is tweeting about returning home from the hospital, and about losing her friend Michael Jackson.

“I’m home from the hospital sore, but intact. Of course I’m still grieving for Michael … I always will,” Taylor wrote on her Twitter account Friday evening. “But as I said before I went into the hospital, ‘I am a survivor.’”

“I’ve had many tragedies in my life, but I guess they have all taught me something. I have to look at it that way,” she continued. “I give love and I’m surrounded by love … and I thank God for that.”
