Jackson burial delayed
By CMU Editorial | Published on Monday 24 August 2009
Hey, he’s only been dead two months, what’s the rush? Michael Jackson will no longer be buried on his 51st birthday, as had been planned. The date has now been pushed back five days to 3 Sep.
A spokesman for Jackson’s family, Ken Sunshine, informed reporters of the date change on Friday but offered no reason for the delay.
In further Jacko burial news, it is expected that the star will be laid to rest at the Great Mausoleum in the Forest Lawn Cemetery in LA. The heavily secured mausoleum features a stained glass representation of Michelangelo’s Last Supper for all the dead people inside to enjoy. Those dead people number many late Hollywood stars, including Walt Disney, Humphrey Bogart and Clark Gable.
