Well I tend to believe kids who make such claims, and he did pay the kid 20 million dollars. But you are correct none of us KNOWS. But I am mentioning this to say that the mixed feelings are beginning to set in. Also the way his family seems to want him to be the exception in a city KNOWN for its stars. (How many MILLIONS of dollars is renting the Staples center, blocking traffic, diverting police, etc., costing an already bankrupt state?) Yes it would be nice if he could be buried on the grounds he loved. But, Forest Lawn is acceptable for many, many greats including Marilyn Monroe.

That said, I wish they could somehow turn Neverland into a public attraction in some sane way that would co-exist peaceably with the locals. But, I don't know if there is any way to do that. It would change the peaceful cattle farming valley forever and I'm sure they know that. Traffic from literally all over the world streaming through, night and day, once those gates opened. (They keep talking about that two lane road but no one says if it's possible to, hey, widen it?!) Truthfully if I owned that land (Ha!) I'd parcel off part and apply to make it a cemetery, and parcel off another part and rent it to Jackson family members for $1 a year each. That said, the family seems to want it all. So that may be why they get none.

I had thought about trying to go to the "memorial" but then I thought - stand in line for how long, if 20,000 people showed up? And the mess that downtown traffic NORMALLY is (total gridlock) times by 20,000? And then they said the body won't even be there, so what is it really? Some videos and guest appearances? So why do people make that migration all the way from overseas for it? I don't understand that type of fanatical devotion.

Was always a big Elvis fan, from childhood; still haven't been to Graceland.

Also it's a shame how Farrah got lost in all of this - she barely got a mention.

I happened onto a program last night called “Farrah Fawcett: Her Life, Her Loves, Her Legacy,” A Barbara Walters Exclusive Report. It was apparently originally broadcast on 20/20 on June 25, but I hadn't heard of it.

It was a lovely tribute, very well done, and a peaceful TV "watch" after having viewed Farrah's documentary during her cancer struggles.

a lot of this stuff with his family and his will and a settlement out of court which who knows what went on when lawyers got together..all this is the media that won't let them rest in peace..the only news i would want to know out of any of Farrah or Micheals is that they passed away..

if they want to share things from their lives especially the families..they should be showing the positive things about the people..

they did the same thing with Elvis too..and they will do the with anyone that passes away that is in the media..

thats the real sad part,,i just keep my tv off and go to you tube or look them up on the net for things they have done over their lives..it's so much more reflective than hearing the wolves tear the flesh apart..
