When I sum up that whole statement it sounds like LaToya wanted someone in there to dress MJ who would not reveal that the body wasn’t real flesh and blood. Loved ones or whom ever the family chooses are allowed to dress the deceased, do their hair, makeup etc. Supposedly its to bring them final closure. I did it for my mom and it helped bit, but closure, never.
Something like this then: white pearl jacket, black gloves, gold boxer belt.
45 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a merchant man, seeking goodly pearls:46 Who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had, and bought it.
The twelve gates were twelve pearls, each gate made of a single pearl. The great street of the city was of pure gold, like transparent glass.
It was thought of as a dress. For me, that never happened, I talk about MJ in present time, Live! :bearhug:
QuoteJackson would tell Bush to "never let 'em see my legs. Because if my fans could see my legs I'd lose all of 'em".Yeah they'd be fainting all over the place.Quote"Even though he was a dancer he wasn't a sexual being," Bush recalls. "Sex wasn't a part of him. When he was on stage he made love to the audience but you can't touch him, ever."Gina, where are you!! :icon_lol:

She told me nobody else could do it." Bush thought he would merely visit the mortuary in Forest Lawn, California, and hand over the clothes, which the family had chosen. But the Jackson clan had other plans. :icon_eek: :animal0017:"The mortician told us that the family want you to be here because there's things they don't want anyone to see," [...] "They brought me and Karen (Jackson's make-up artist) into the room. They made us sign papers saying that we can't sue them, because seeing a dead body is traumatic. :icon_eek: :animal0017:[ . . . . ]After Bush dressed Jackson's corpse he was asked by the mortician to help to put the star into his coffin. "I was glad that I got to experience that in a way -- it was like a vision", he remembers. :icon_eek: :animal0017:[ . . . ]Those moments extended back to the mid- Eighties [...] and their professional and personal relationship deepened.

Jackson's behavior did not noticeably change after Murray began working for him, Bush says. :icon_albino: :animal0017:[ . . . ]"I put the radio on in the car and it said, 'Michael Jackson is at the Ronald Reagan UCLA hospital'. The first thing I thought is 'here we go again. Michael has brought the child to hospital and now they think he's dead.' As I got to the Staples Center parking lot Karen called back. She said, 'You have to get here, now'. I got out of the car in such a hurry that I left the engine running and all of the clothes from the This Is It tour were in the back of the car unlocked. [...] The hardest part was that about 20 minutes after they told us they started ripping down the stage," Bush remembers. "I mean, I know it's business, they need the next guy to come in, but it shouldn't have been that fast." :icon_exclaim: :icon_question: :icon_eek: :animal0017:[ . . . .]In the meantime, Bush contents himself with the knowledge that he is impervious to conspiracy theories. :suspect: "I've heard the talk -- there are those fans who think he's alive, that he's hanging out somewhere with Elvis," he says.
