Elizabeth Taylor Funeral Service Today

[fordtocarr]

Someone just posted on tmz that Elizabeth isn't going to be by Michael, but someplace else in the cemetery.   Now, tell me what is the point of THAT  Also, that person found it on the news...has anyone else heard that?  
Also, who's to say those pics at FL are recent...
As usual, too much controversy

It's about ET's funeral and the praparations. This means the photos are from there, from the preparations. Scorpionchick could go there and verify. I don't know why people want to be blind. Blindness brought us only suffering. I tried to think with my head and not with my heart but while my mind was telling me: Give up,  this is not what you want to see, my heart was telling me: Don't give up.  And the pain I feel now increases with every news that appears

Michael is still alive, Elizabeth would want to be buried near him being as she was his closet friend and IMO Elizabeth knew about the hoax... remember that one of the first celebrity reports when Michael was 'rushed to hospital' was from Elizabeth's PR saying that he was alive. Michael's final resting place will be at FL and I believe that the Jackson's did buy several plots at the cemetery for when the days do come. I think Elizabeth knew this and also that when Michael does pass away he will be interred at FL, near to her. May she rest in peace.

Iam watching KTLA right now (news channel from Los Angeles) and you see the media and all there. Not quite the "circus" that Michael's funeral and memorial was but still alot of attention

While i do find it a bit odd that Liz is going to be buried at FL and they confirmed she too with be buried in the moselium NEAR Michael and not near her parents as thought still for me this doesnt change a thing and Michael is alive

I looked at TMZ LIVE and all the people from there, behind Harvey, all are wearing black

Elizabeth said she wanted to be buried next to Mike? And how did she knew he would die before her? I mean, I know life is unpredictable but how can you assume someone almost 30 years younger will die before you?

All of this remembers me of Katherine's interview with Oprah  :?

Edit: 77th post  :roll:

If Liz really wants to be buried close to MJ, it's not that weird if she is buried at FL. Maybe Mike really bought those spots. I guess Liz assumed she would go first anyway, since there is an age difference of more than 25 years. So why would this be such an issue?

I bet those gay-haters weren't expecting this either, are they spotted yet?

I agree with Grace, how would some of you react when things will really get tough?

Elizabeth said that after June 25 2009

kdkennedy74, I agree with you.
"I don't know what to make of this article. Having the service the day after her death is rather quick and everything I have heard up until this is that she would be buried with her parents. To me personally this makes more sense as I would think her children and grandchildren would want her to be in the family plot. While I admire the friendship that she and MJ had, I do not believe that she would override her wishes to be next to her parents. Maybe I am wrong but from everything I have read she was close to her parents so there was not an estrangement there to make her change her mind. MJ and ET were best friends but I feel that blood is thicker than water so I am not buying this. Like I said, could be wrong, but will wait and see. I think this is more media drama. Even if this is true what I am understanding the reports to say is that she will be in the same cemetary but not necessarily the same location".

I am thinking more media drama  to get people like us stirring.  Also I would tend to agree with the family plot and being next to her parents.  I think TMZ is just playing with our emotions.  As for arrangements being made so quickly as posted previously, I am sure Liz's arrangements were made along time ago.  As for all of this happening so quickly, this could just be a set up and have been said purposely so the family could have private time at another date.  Let's wait until scorpionchik gets back from FL.  Maybe she'll find something out for us.  Take care, Love to All

It makes me think of how Elizabeth didn't want to get involved in all the "hoopla" at Michael's Memorial at the Staples Center.  Most likely she and her family both realized that the quicker everything is done and over with, the sooner the "hoopla" will end.  So having the funeral the day after her death (especially since it was "expected") is one way to end a lot of media speculation, drama and hoopla.  IMO

And thanks also to scorpionchik for going to check this out.

even still, just means, when they both are dead, she wants to be near him.  Not that well, he IS dead so when I am, put me by him.

You know, when it was Michael's funeral, I don't remember seeing these buildings and the guard post right there.  I remember a long drive.  I'd have remembered because these buildings look the tudor style like Hayvenhurst is.

Sorry that grief, however real or unreal, is received as if it's offensive. :?  It's an emotion.  Either it will pass or it won't but there's no need for the mods to be insensitive to people who are feeling it after receiving this sad news. :roll:   That is certainly not Michaelish.  I have nothing more to say on this discussion, so I'll just read for awhile.

I didnt say grief is offensive and Im not being insensitive and it has nothing to do with being a mod, if i were a simple member i would have said the same...and there's nothing like "Michaelish" to me. Carry on
