Michael Jackson Private Funeral Held Today

More than two months after his death, Michael Jackson will be laid to rest during a private ceremony Thursday evening. The ceremony will take place at Forest Lawn Memorial Park in Glendale. The pop singer will be interred in the cemetery’s Great Mausoleum, which also houses the remains of iconic stars such as Clark Gable, Carole Lombard, Red Skelton, and Jean Harlow.

And this time, the mayor’s office won’t be asking for handouts to cover the costs of the service.
