Jackson Burial Place Almost Finalized

Filed under: Michael Jackson

michael_jackson_roundup_19___opt1.jpg

As we mentioned earlier, the previously reported public viewing for Michael Jackson this Friday at Neverland Ranch is NOT going to happen.

The Jackson family officially confirmed that no public or private viewing would take place at the ranch. But, they are said to be working on finalizing a time and place shortly for the viewing and burial.

And according to E! News, Michael's body is currently being held at the Forest Lawn Memorial Park and Mortuaries in the Hollywood Hills, where he's expected to be buried.

Insiders also reveal that another plan is supposedly underway to have the public ceremony at the Los Angeles Staples Center followed by a procession to Neverland Ranch for a private funeral for family and friends.

However, a rep for the Staples Center states: "Nothing is scheduled at Staples at this time."

Time's a-ticking. Let's hope the family decides on a time and place soon!

Larry King Embraces His Inner Diva!

Filed under: Larry King

When you're as old as he is, you can do pretty much whatever you want. Screw being "green"!

According to reports, Larry King was asked to attend the Police Athletic League's Superstar Dinner at the Pierre Hotel in New York recently. However, King turned down the request because he couldn't get a private jet to take him cross country from Los Angeles.

Could you imagine sitting next to Larry King on a commercial flight in coach? Ok, neither can we, but can't he at least fly first class?

Reps for the 75-year-old confirm that he only travels by private jet, but, they claim: "Larry has been an emcee many times. He made it clear that unless he was in New York on assignment for CNN, he wouldn't be able to do it. He never asked for a plane. The PAL loves him."

And so do we!

Courtney Love Reportedly Suffering From Malnutrition!

Filed under: Courtney Love

wenn2285457.jpg

According to new reports, Courtney Love was diagnosed by her doctor with malnutrition two weeks ago!!

"He gave me a massive shot of vitamins and told me to start eating," said the pin thin singer. "I know I've got too skinny. I know I need to sort it out."

What's to sort out?!

Put food in your mouth!

Love, who carries just 116 lbs on her 5'10 frame, blames the weight loss on worrying about the missing millions from her late husband's estate.

That's such an El Lay way to grieve!

Most people put on weight!

"I need to start working out again. It's the stress - you have no idea what it has been like these last few months. I need to get to the bottom of this fraud, I need answers," said Love.

Working out?!

We doubt Courtney has forgotten how to put on weight since she's done it so many times before!

The plastic surgeon can't get you out of this one!

P.S. Are we sure "malnutrition" is not code for something else???? *wink * wink *

New R. Kelly Sex Scandal!!!!!

Filed under: R. Kelly

mx0038070.jpg

He cannot stay away from young girls out of trouble!!!

According the the National Enquirer, R. Kelly is under investigation AGAIN for being sexually involved with a minor!

Detectives reportedly showed up at Kelly's Illinois home after receiving a tip that an underage girl was living with him, but there was no sign of either.

Authorities did eventually find the girl and discovered that she is indeed 17, the consenting age for the state, but investigations will continue to discover how long the relationship has been going on!

No complaint has been filed at this time, although he will be questioned by police when he returns from his tour in South Africa.

These allegations are coming just a year after being acquitted for soliciting a minor for child pornography, when he appeared in a sex tape with a 14 year old girl!

Idiot!!!!

Update: According to the Olympia Fields Police Dept, "All rumors are completely false information. There is no investigation into R. Kelly at the present time. We have been fielding calls for the past three days."

Michael's Will! Who Gets What!

Filed under: Legal Matters > Michael Jackson

amichael_jackson_death_18_w.jpg

Michael definitely had favorites!!!!

According to his will, Michael Jackson's assets will be placed in a family trust, but there are more beneficiaries than first reported.

The Michael Jackson Family Trust, which is said to be valued at $500 million, will be disbursed between his children and his mother Katherine.

Six relatives, which include his brother Tito's three sons, are listed as contingent remainder beneficiaries. Basically, they'd only share the estate if Michael's children or Katherine passed away before Michael did.

Just Tito's family?!

Jackson's wish was for his mother to be appointed guardian of his kids, but in the case that it was not possible, singer Diana Ross would look after them!!!!

That would prove to be interesting!

No Public Viewing At Neverland Ranch???

Filed under: Michael Jackson

wenn66209neverland__opt1.jpg

This is going to get a lot of Michael Jackson fans very upset!

The Associated Press is now reporting that the public viewing scheduled and confirmed to take place this Friday at the Neverland Ranch is likely NOT happening!

Reports are now stating that a funeral and burial will most likely take place in Los Angeles instead of at Jackson's 2,500-acre ranch in Santa Barbara County.

An inside source has reported to the AP that nothing has been planned yet to take place at Neverland, at least through this Friday.

However, Jackson's family has the final say.

So where are they now to speak up and confirm the news???

The sourced added that Neverland owner, billionaire Thomas Barrack, who owns the ranch in a joint venture with Jackson, sought an exemption to bury him at Neverland, but it wasn't able to be worked out for this week.

In order to burry Jackson in private property, the family would need to get permission from local land-use officials and submit an application with the state Cemetry and Funeral Bureau and then wait for approval, which could take up to 30 days.

The source adds that "The family is aware a Neverland burial is not possible. They are expected to make decisions about whatever funeral and memorial service" will take place.

Update: The Jackson family just released a statement!

They say: "Contrary to previous news reports, the Jackson family is officially stating that there will be no public or private viewing at Neverland.

Plans are underway regarding a public memorial for Michael Jackson, and we will announce those plans shortly."
