I still don't see your point.

^ That she's gained weight and looking chunky, like I said originally.

Anyway,

Oh.

That's a dumb point. :p

And don't replay Paris. Me and my assistant both teared up. It was so amazing. And she was like "He was the best daddy ever"... and with that every naysayer should shut their goddamn fucking mouths.

I am not convinced that the girl knew Jackson very well.

What a wonderful service.

Paris talking about her dad, yeah that was hard to watch.

A friend and I were secretly hoping Jackson would pop out of his coffin and start performing Thriller in front of everyone right at the end of the funeral service. O well...

So the question is did she say this because he always touched her tenderly in forbidden areas??????

bummer. I watched the event at work from cnn.com. It was originally starting to skip before the event began but when it did begin it was smooth all the way.

I thought it was respectful, funny, touching and a good event overall. I was swallowing my throat during Shield's speech and Latifah's read of the poem. I was on the verge of tears during We are the world, heal the world and Marlon and Paris's last comments. I have a knew appreciation for those last two songs. They really have such a powerful message that's easy to forget.

I thought Sharpton was okay and the Congressman was okay. I really liked her statement about being innocent until proven guilty. That was a lovely punch to that dumbass republic who was calling MJ a pedophile and child molester.

On another note, Libs you should check out the song writer of Man in the Mirror's performance at some church. It's on youtube. Oh, it's very touching.

RIP to MJ and that's the last I'll contribute to this topic.

I thought the whole thing was so impersonal and circus-like that i didnt want to watch that morbidity.

Im sure it was beautiful and heartfelt and all that.
But i pass.

Wow, just saw all the video. What a heart-wrenching tribute by Paris.

I totally cried. Not even going to lie. Totally. Cried.

Other than Sharpton, I was surprised how classy it was. I didn't get a circus like vibe from it.

Except Mariah was a hot tranny mess. (Is that how you say it?)
