عنوان درس: تدفین (مایکل) جکسون در روز تولدش

به گزارش گوش بدهيد

Michael Jackson will be laid to rest at the Forest Lawn Glendale Cemetery, north of downtown Los Angeles. It's a place that guards closely the identities of other celebrity residents but it's reported Humphrey Bogart, Errol Flynn and Clark Gable are buried there, some in private locked gardens. The event will take place on August 29th, the day Jackson would have turned 51.

Some fans are planning parties on the same day to celebrate his life and music, among them film director Spike Lee who worked on the video for the Jackson hit They Don't Care About Us.

By the time he is buried it will be more than two months since Michael Jackson died. The whereabouts of his body have been kept secret.

Meanwhile police are still investigating his death and have focussed on doctors who treated him to find out what drugs were in his system.

By contrast to the spectacle of his life and death, Michael Jackson's funeral is planned as a private ceremony for family and close friends but it's bound to attract a huge amount of interest.
