500 Million Hope To Attend MJ's Memorial!

Filed under: Michael Jackson

amichael_jackson_roundup_33__opt1.jpg

The Staples Center must have bulked up their servers big time!

The venue's website was visited over 500 million times within the first hour of opening registration for Michael Jackson's memorial!!!!

Out of those 500 million, only 17,500 fans will be awarded a ticket for the memorial service through a lottery.

Although the Jackson family set up the lottery to cut down on confusion, you just know that shiz will be on Craigslist in a few days for major $$$$$!

  2. 2

    know your fucking facts perez. 500 mil may have visited but in the first 7 hour 500,000 entered. they expect about 2.3 million stupid not 500 million you dumb fuck. stop reporting about michael and saying you like him because we know you are a fucking liar.

    Have fun with that, paying respect to a pedophile, that is.



  5. 5

    Craigslist is for trailor park trash like yourself, Perez.



  6. 6

    Wow! Who would have thunk it?



  7. 7

    except for the fact that they'll probably do a will call type of thing where you'll have to bring ID to get your ticket.



  8. 8

    i would rather watch it on tv.



  9. 9

    I hope Perez does not get tickets to the MJ memorial. He has treated MJ like scum for as long as he has been blogging. He would only go so he could say he was there. He's trying to be a little bit nicer these days but only because so many people are pissed that even in death he treats people like scum. Because everyone knows Perez as soon as Michael is buried you will go back to being the SCUM you are. Try and think about his kids.

    500 million? lmao. No website is going to support 500 million visits in an hour without crashing. But then again, you also believe you had 268 million visits to this site last month because people like you. You're still the delusional fatboy you always were.

    Hey, where's those shirtless pics you were promising today? I want to see what Chastity Bono is going to look like as a dude.

    Re: sammieslam – Perez is an idiot, did he ever graduate high school??



  18. 18

    wow.. the number is more than the US population.

    Mj was the worlds MOST famous man and this proves that he had more supporters than haters. Mj was a symbol for injustice/prejudice and for innovation in peoples heart. He has million of fans and some pathetic media-jaded haters.. take that.

    PS. PEREZ IS A MAGGOT!



  34. 34

    Re: Perez is Flabby – hehehehehehe.



  35. 35

    This post is utterly ridiculous. "500 Million Hope To Attend MJ's Memorial"? Really?
    First of all, 500 million people is one third of the number of people in the world who have access to the internet, and there's no way they would all be MJ fans and all decide to go visit that website at the same time. Second of all, 500 million visits does not mean 500 million individual visitors. The website might have had a large number of hits (although certainly not 500 million, there's no way a server could survive 500 million hits within an hour) but that can most likely be linked to some smart geeks using software robots to automatically log in several times a minute and try to get seats to the funeral so they can sell it for a good price on the black market.



  36. 36

    actually, it's 501 million



  37. 37

    Re: GumboYaYa – I guess you need reminding that he was cleared of those charges creep.



  38. 38

    l cannot believe this,,,,,,,,,,,,,,this is going to be something and look forward to all the coverage,,,,



  39. 39

    Re: LäggNer – Update: according to the Telegraph (actual reliable press as opposed to the Jacksons' PR bureau), the website has had 4 million individual hits so far. That's less than 1% of the figures that Perez is talking about.
    Just saying…
