The Circus Is in Town for MJ's Memorial

16. I agree. It may be a circus (figuratively AND literally) but Michael would have LOVED this! The fans, the celebrities, and yes, the animals.

18. How appropriate....LOL....a $25,000.00 gold plated casket...all those plastic people with plastic faces covered in make up...and several thousand screaming nut case fans....complete with elephants. True to form, the JACKSON CIRCUS is back in town.

19. PS The circus was originally scheduled to come to town (and be at Staples) before Michael's death.

21. Those animals belong free. I really hope the day comes when they STOP using them in the circus. It really is so sad,

24. Michael Jackson loved animals and would not approve of the cruelty that is the Ringling Brothers Circus. If you loved Michael, boycott this and all other circuses!

25. You know... all this talk about the current state of the economy... it's nice to know that millions of dollars can be spent on a memorial service for someone who doesn't deserve to be remembered. This is ridiculous.

26. "The circus is in town...."

Wow, can't believe TMZ would actually state something so honest and accurate for a change.....

27. Oh come on. Circus memorial? Let's not get too tacky or Hollywood. Keep it dignified and classy.

28. Circuses that exploit animals are simply disgusting. Taking an animal's self respect so they can dance for humans degrades us all. These circuses are a thing of the past. The entertainment industry should evolve into the new millennium.

29. I'll never forgot how Shepard Smith of FOX news got the giggles when Paris Hilton, & her being forced to return to jail, occured the same time as the circus came to town. It is funny it's happening again.

30. This DISGUSTS me. The circus is ANIMAL CRUELTY and i can not believe people are pathetic enough to enjoy watching this. These animals are beaten just to do their "tricks". Ringling bros. abuses their animals.
