Wouldn’t that be plunking down, not plucking down.
But then you just never know.
Jackson funerally ought to be something to see.
Mac Daddy Joe isn’t getting shit. Left out of the will. Notice he hasn’t been out and about since that announcement.
Of course, he will reap benefits as long as Katherine is alive since she gets 40%. Her share probably reverts back to the kids when she dies. At least I hope so.
They can open Neverland and put the Jacksons on the payroll to keep it up.
I don’t have a problem with this being the most grandiose tackey funeral ever in history.
It would be befitting Michael Jackson.
LOL! If it were Madison Square Garden, Spike Lee would definitely have the floor seats.
Before they decided on Staples, I joked they were going to do it like the Lakers championship rally, rent the Memorial Coliseum and get the Lakers broadcasters Joel Meyers and Stu Lantz to emcee.
Have been trying to see who was involved with NoI and/or brother, Jermaine. Don't thing Bro was directly involved, but used to get to him.
The problem is that the LAPD did not seal off his mansion.
It will be hard to ever get a conviction at this point.
I forsee the irresponsible Drs who gave the prescriptions getting into a lot of trouble.
Here is an interesting article about the concert side of this. I believe AEG owns Staples Center. If it is a drug related death the insurance company doesn’t pay.

AEG owns the intellectual rights to the recordings they made. So how does the estate benefit from them?
Anybody who would want to go the MJ funeral certainly would be willing to pony up at $50.00
I bet MJ dad is thinking $25.00 is a act of humanity < / s >
Man, I commented under my breath yesterday that they would charge.
Have these people no shame?
How did MJ pass a 5 hour battery of tests with flying colors????
The state of his body shows he was a long term addict. He couldn’t have just stopped taking the meds.
The whole thing stinks to high heaven.
A very small part of me actually gets the feeling he’s not dead, and this is all a gimmick to kick off the “This Is It” tour? He was rehearsing at the Staples Center, and now the memorial service will be there — and it’ll be like a concert more than a memorial service? And they’re charging folks?!
He did a lot of strange things over the years, and those closest to him confess he did them just as gimmicks. He was weird enough to try something this wacky...

Yes, I think we will see that the Dr(s) cause his death and will be held accountable.
Who is AEG? There is so much material on the web now, I've been unable to see who the money/backers are? Do they have a connection with anyone in NoI? Or any of the other people around Mjj?
They should have an open casket Micheal in the middle of the stage,and at the end do a live re-enactment of the “Thriller” video, with zombies dancing around the coffin.
I love that! Willie the Whimp/Fluky Stokes. He is a legend.
CALLED IT!
That family has no shame. Particularly the father.
Weekend and Bernies concert?
You don’t really think it’s for the children do you? I’d bet this is Joe’s idea.
