    Gaudy as it was, I think he would have liked it. And I remain grateful he didn't have Bubbles interred with him, Egyptian style.

    I don't understand your comment? Seeing how MJ hired the Fruit of Islam as his security team during that media circus of a trial, I could see why Minister Farrakhan would be in attendance.

    @Erode: I actually feel bad for witnessing her breaking down. It felt intrusive and voyueristic. She was cleraly in pain and it should have been a private moment. I love MJ and i'm glad people are finally paying him tribute and the media isn't jumping down his throat for once but i think i'm going to back away from spectacle for a while. This is too much.

    @Erode: I agree -- Paris' statement made me realize Michael Jackson was an actual person, not just the notion we have in our heads of him.


    I wasn't sure of the kind of relationship Michael had with his kids, being a celebrity and having the problems he had and all. She really almost made me cry -- I think he was probably a very loving dad.

    @Eric Northman is mine: I can see where you are coming from, but her speech wasn't planned. She told them while they were giving their closing sentiments that she wanted to say something, and they allowed her to do so. It may have been better to have a private moment, but she WANTED to say what she did, and I think it's an important distinction to make here.


    That said, I 100% agree with leaving the spectacle behind. Even going through the comments on the LiveBlog, it's obvious that some people are never going to stop being insensitive jerks, and I don't think I can handle hearing one more person suggest that no one should be mourning because they think he's a bad person/made mediocre music/is a child molester/etc. And it's only a matter of time before the media turn on him again.


    I'm going to take my memories of MJ, and this lovely service, and call it a day.
