A $25,000, solid bronze, 14-karat gold plated, custom casket has been ordered for Michael Jackson. The casket -- ordered last night from Batesville Casket Company -- is called a Promethean and will feature a flame blue velvet interior and a hand-polished, mirror finish.
This is the same casket used to bury James Brown... and is extremely rare.

So stick him in it, shut the lid, drop it into a hole and let’s move on ...

Tasteful, as ever. You have to respect people who embrace understatement like this.

I wish they mummified him instead, like King Tut, and preserved him for posterity in a glass casket :)

Mike would have been better off getting a cheaper casket with an Air Conditioner considering where he was going!!!
To: libh8er

This is , by far, more tasteful. IMHO.

That's a pretty tight squeeze to fit MJ in.
Lucky he is only 110 lbs

Eh, If that’s what he wanted it hurts no one. Not going to nitpick.
I will say he’s just guareenteed they’ll have to put guards on it though. There are already sick people who would dig it up just because he’s in it. Now he’s given reason for people to dig it up for the gold.
To: COUNTrecount
This would certainly be the most appropriate. It would be a symbol of his contribution to society.
