Kind of odd that Michael Jackson, the world's undisputed celeb number one had mia many A-List celebs at his funera/memorial service.
Missing, former President Bill Clinton, Paul McCartney, Mick Jagger, Elizabeth Taylor, Liza Minelli, Elton John, Diana Ross (guardian in waiting), Sting, David Bowie, Denzel Washington, Tatum O'neal. Lisa Marie Presley, Michael Jordan, Aretha Franklin and on and on.

Of course Aretha doesn't fly and she had just left the West Coast via bus.
Where was Gladys Knight who really discovered him and recommended him to Berry Gordy? Where was Whitney Houston, Tina Turner, Patti Labelle, Ne-Yo, Babyface, etc., etc.

Good service but...

People do have lives.....and some plans can't be easily altered.

I thought this went under the MJ sticky PLEASE!!!!!

Like Graycap said, they have lives and I'm not mad they didn't show up.

Having big list celebrities would just take away from the simplicity of the whole memorial.

Its not a matter of big names, its about people who were true and loyal friends. Even some of those good friends couldn't make it, no big deal.

It probably does, but excuse me for being a bit dumb (smiles), I couldn't navigate seeing a reply section in that header. I tried to put it there.
Sorry

Use MJ stickies. Thanks.
