they did what?! Celeb News & GossipThey came for an intimate ceremony for a superstar: Lisa Marie Presley, Elizabeth Taylor, Macaulay Culkin, Chris Tucker and Mila Kunis arrived at Forest Lawn Memorial Park in Glendale, Calif., on Thursday for the funeral for Michael Jackson.
As night fell, the friends of the King of Pop took their seats under Southern California skies still brown from mountain brush fires. While awaiting Jackson’s family to arrive, the friends signed a guest book and leafed through a nine-page invitation with photos of Jackson through the years.
Jackson, who died June 25 at age 50, will be interred in Forest Lawn's Grand Mausoleum, the final resting place for Clark Gable, Carole Lombard, Jean Harlow and Red Skelton. The building is patterned on 13th Century Italian architecture, with the walls and floors of each crypt constructed of reinforced concrete.
Jackson’s estate will pay for the small but expensive funeral, which took place under heavy security. "The expenses will be extraordinary, but Michael Jackson was extraordinary," Jeryll Cohen, an attorney for the singer's estate, said Wednesday at a hearing in Los Angeles Superior Court dealing with the funeral costs.
Jackson's brother Marlon has said that Michael's three children have each written letters to their father that will lie with him alongside one of his signature white gloves. The notes by Prince Michael, 12, Paris, 11, and Blanket, 7, read: "Daddy, we love you, we miss you,"
