Carole, maybe they gave the kids gum to keep them a little calmer? I'm not sure. It was a long time for them to sit.

I didn't like them all wearing sunglasses inside either. I kept hoping it was because they had cried their eyes out in previous days and they didn't want to be seen in public with puffy eyes. It seems like a Hollywood thing mostly.

I think the fact that they were so composed is also a Hollywood thing. Maybe some acting involved. Aren't they all entertainers but one?

Michael Jackson has had some controversy in the news over the years. No matter what we've heard about him, I found the memorial pretty sad. I guess it's always sad when anyone dies.

I can't get past the fact that his death has turned into a media frenzy as much as it has in light of all that's happened with him. Both past and present. Is this really a good example to be sending out to our young people?
