California Rumor

Michael Jackson’s family and friends have attended a private viewing at the cemetery where he is to be buried. The private service was reportedly called 'A Celebration Of Life' for the pop icon and was conducted at the Forest Lawn cemetery in Hollywood Hills on Monday evening. A hearse carrying a coffin - believed to contain the King Of Pop's remains - was pictured arriving at the cemetery's Hall of Liberty, an auditorium where the evening service took place. LaToya Jackson was pictured arriving in her gray Bentley as hundreds of extra police blocked roads and established checkpoints around the sprawling grounds. Guests entering the hall were seen undergoing additional security checks as they went into the room believed to contain the body.. The Jackson family did not announce the gathering but it became clear an event was about to take place around 6pm when the police presence at the cemetery doubled. Dozens of police cars arrived at the venue followed by a convoy of cars with blacked out windows believed to be carrying family and friends. According to US reports, family in attendance included Michael's children Prince Michael and Paris, and sister Janet who traveled together to the cemetery. After the service concluded at 9pm the coffin was placed back inside the hearse and taken to a nearby building in the cemetery. The pop star's burial will take place in a small family ceremony at the same site tomorrow, according to reports.
