MJ's Final Resting Place -- No Visitors, Please

Posted Aug 18th 2009 10:20AM by TMZ Staff

If you're planning on going to Michael Jackson's burial site at Forest Lawn Memorial Park and dropping off some flowers, think again -- the mausoleum where he's being buried on August 29 isn't open to the public.


The Great Mausoleum -- where stars like Clark Gable and Jean Harlow were laid to rest -- is considered a private area, where only property owners and family members are allowed to go. It's monitored by security cameras to catch any trespassers who snoop around.

Graceland, it is not.

More Michael Jackson

5. It's about time! Disgusting letting a corpse languish in a freezer! They did the same thing to Bobby Brown, dragged his corpse all over the country for days.

Inhumane!

10. Forest Lawn Glendale also is the resting place for Walt Disney, Sammy Davis Jr and other well known celebrities. This location always made more sense from the beginning than Hollywood Hills.

12. There are two Forest Lawns'. One is in Glendale the other is in the Hollywood Hills which is LA. But Michael is being buried in Glendale. Joe couldn't even get the day right because they just announced that it will be this Saturday, Aug 22 not Aug 29.

13. @jany- They *are* burying him at Glendale, not Hollywood Hills.

14. I hope that he can now rest in peace. He got no peace from all the stupid gullible people when he was alive, so, hopefully, he can now get some peace in death. Greatly loved. Gone too soon.
