Michael To Be Laid To Rest On Tuesday
Filed under: Michael Jackson
Though no official confirmation has been given by the family…
The Hollywood Reporter claims that Michael Jackson's funeral has been scheduled for Tuesday, July 7th, at 10:00 in the morning at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, converting the entire Nokia Center into a venue for what's sure to be one of the biggest farewells in celebrity history.
In order to accommodate the thousands who will not be able to get inside, the funeral will be projected on giant screens. There is no word yet on how tickets will be handled.
The funeral will be followed at the same venue the next day by Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus, which had to postpone its opening show to July 8th for the sudden funeral.
We have a feeling Michael would have wanted it that way.

before Perez got the shit kicked out of him i think he would of had a drawing of a syringe coming out of his arm or coke lines in his nose.
RIP MJ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes Perez he wanted to die and have a circus pushed back a day. I hope when you pass away that your funeral is held in the bathroom of a Denny's cause we all know how your fat ass loves how to eat. You are such a moron. Ugh!!
aww, this is on my birthday…. i wanted to go tomorrow, but i'll cry. I don't want to cry on my birthday
Aww, it's on my birthday…. I'll cry if I go, and I don't want to cry on my birthday
There is gonna be tons of celebrity's there
Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus? I guess that's appropriate! hah!
laid to rest on tuesday? and you will keep talking about him for weeks….
This is a joke. Are you serious
I dont want Claims i want Conformation
How fitting to have the circus at the same venue the next day.
From one circus to another. It's just too good to pass up.
Perez, you shouldn't post anything about Michael Jackson's death unless you apologize for accusing him to fake his death to get publicity for his show. Once and for all, take responsibility for your words.
I was watching a past special last night on tv and the guy asked him how his skin turned from black to white and he said I don't know.I juess is was a act of God.And when asked about drugs.He said the strongest thing he has ever taken was asprin!
Who else is starting to doubt that he's really dead? I mean, he died only a few weeks before his first concert, and the funeral is within a week before his first concert, and according to those reports it's being held at the Staples Center. The Staples Center is where he rehearsed the night before he died and is also owned by AEG.
My thought: one big PR stunt, perhaps the most brilliant and most sickening of all time.
great just what we need in downtown LA… another riot!
I'LL BE THERE…WHETHER I GET INSIDE OR AM STANDING OUTSIDE THE ARENA WATCHING IT ON JUMBOTRONS…MY
Re: laura587 – yeah right and the LAPD, coroner's office, DEA and all the government agencies are all winking and nudging eachother too… get a grip.
I hope CNN or Fox broadcasts it as well so that the rest of the nation who is too far to attend can pay respects as well as we can.
omgosh….look at that beatiful smile of michael's!
And theres no way this is a PR stunt. That would be absolutely horrible and no one would put this many people through grief. His family is also torn by this grief. The police are involved. Not a stunt.
Re: ForTheLoveofMJ – Hehehhehehehehe. Funny az hell.
box of wannabe white chocolate filled with a pedophile..the new american treat
Re: ForTheLoveofMJ –
LMAO, well said!!!!
To the person that called this a PR stunt is completely out of his/her mind. That's what's wrong with this country - too much sensationalism. The man is dead and may he RIP.
perez dont pretend you care about michael jackson you made fun of him when he was alive.
Good Lord! And who is paying for this spectacle, and the cleanup, and the police salaries? Will they be selling tee shirts and other promos?
