MJ to be Buried Wearing One White Glove

Michael Jackson with White GloveMichael Jackson will be laid to rest in pure MJ fashion -- as in he will be wearing one (and only one) of his favorite gloves.

Dorothy Gaspar -- who owns Gaspar Gloves in L.A. and designed gloves for the "This Is It" tour -- tells us La Toya Jackson wanted Michael to wear a glove inside the casket. Turns out La Toya chose a white leather glove Dorothy made for Michael 10-12 years ago -- a glove covered in Swarovski crystals.

Dorothy tells us she was informed of this yesterday by Michael's stylist -- Michael Bush -- when he picked up 20 green gloves she had made for Jackson's dancers.

256. It's a shame when your good deeds go unrewarded. Rather than focus on the millions he donated to children's hospitals and the music he created or the cancer stricken children he tended to, we focus on the '93 child molestation trial. A couple of points though...

1) The accuser's lawyer, Barry Rothman, was chosen because he was a mean, nasty, son of a bitch who didn't mind breaking the rules to get what he wanted.

2) The accuser's father, Evan Chandler, wanted 20 million dollars up front for a 'movie deal' or he would go ahead with allegations against Jackson. This is called extortion.

3) Evan Chandler was recorded saying that 'there will be a massacre' if he went ahead with his 'plan' to 'destroy Michael Jackson'. When asked what effect this would have on his son, Evan said, "Thats irrelevant!" and ended by saying, 'If I go through with this, I win big time, there is no way that I lose.'

Sounds to me like this guy is a prick who didn't care that his son had gotten "sexually molested."

In my opinion what did not work in Michael Jackson's favor was that he was eccentric and odd. Addicted to plastic surgery and not seeing himself for what he was and caring too much about children which was mistaken for crossing the line.

258. He was a talanted man ..loved to see him perfom......but he was still to me a person that was confused about was what ok to do with kids.....He became a father thank god...hopefully that made him see what he was doing things that was not ok.......I dont think that he thought about what it looked liked.....people from the outside looking in did not see it that way. It is not ok to share a bed with someone else's child and go on TV and say its OK ...what is wrong with you ?????? You had prpblems with for years where were your so called friends when all of the bad things going on......No one went on camera and stood up for you....brooke shields for the !st time said something in yrs about you is she kidding me....where has she been?????? This man has been through alot ........I dont agree with the fact that he is perfect...but may he RIP...away from the fake friends who were not by his side when he was arrested....

259. Why do people go to Michael Jackson related articles, just to bash him? Those who believe Michael was innocent are not going to change their minds just because you chose to come here and spread hate. Yes, the smoking gun uses police reports but that doesn't make them true. I could go a place a restraining order on any of you, but that doesn't mean you've done something wrong. Its documentation...

Now, can we just let this man rest in peace and get on with it!

262. It's been 2 weeks and he still has not been laid to rest..I understand if the family wants to wait for all of his body parts to be returned but, Like they said earlier, that can take months even years if any of this goes to court.......Please lay the man to rest so the world can go on with thier lives and let the rest of this play out as god intended it to...

264. I was thinking back over the years, particularly the 80's part, of Michael's career. I watched the old videos of "Thriller", "Billie Jean", etc. and shared them with my children. To me, it seems Michael didn't get "odd" until after his accident while making the Pepsi commercial. Prior to that he seemed OK. I still think he was just cute as a bug in the "Thriller" video (without the zombie makeup, of course). But I do feel that after he was burned so badly in that shoot, he was never the same MJ we knew and loved.

JMHO

268. Hmmm...something's not right. His body had to have been buried 8 days after his death as per California law.

# CHAPTER 8. PERMITS FOR DISPOSITION OF HUMAN REMAINS - 103050-103105

103070. The body of any person whose death occurs in this state, or
whose body is found in the state, or that is brought in from outside
the state, shall not be temporarily held pending disposition more
than eight calendar days after death, unless a permit for disposition
is issued by the local registrar of the registration district in
which the death occurred or the body was found.

Call me crazy for asking this, but is it possible that Michael Jackson faked his death? I mean, many things simply do not add up.

270. Just wanted to say that now I do believe that the coffin pic is fake. I read an article on mailonline.com from Latoya and she said that Michael was buried in black pants, a gold belt and Cream jacket, the jacket in that pic is definately not cream. She also said that she put a golve and his favorite sunglasses in the casket.
