After more than 10 weeks outside of a grave, pop superstar Michael Jackson was finally laid to rest yesterday, September 3 at Glendale's Forest Lawn Memorial Park.
Those in attendance at Jackson's burial included longtime friend Elizabeth Taylor, Rev. Al Sharpton, Jackson's lawyer Thomas A. Mesereau, Chris Tucker, Londell McMillan, Miko Brando and the Jackson family. Michael's children Blanket and Prince Michael were seen riding in the car into Forest Lawn and both looked quite at ease.
LA Times reports that Glendale police officers had blocked off all the streets within 300-acres of the cemetery and any fans that had shown up to the burial were kept behind barricades away from the cemetery. Michael is going to be interred in the Great Mausoleum at Forest Lawn in Holly Terrace, one of the 11 halls. Other stars that Michael will be sharing a crypt with include Humphrey Bogart, Clark Gable, Jean Harlow and Carole Lombard.
Michael's estate will be paying for the service including paying at least $120,000 to the Glendale Police Department. However most of the expenses will be paid to Forest Lawn. We'll have to wait a little longer to find out the results of the homicide case, but at least we now know that we shouldn't play with propofol.
