Look at all of the celebs hoping to get a boost to their career by staring sadly at the camera. I'm amazed that old Joe Jackson isn't holding up a sign touting his record label.

If I ever have a funeral like this, I want my body shot out of a canon to celebrate the circus that was my life.

Word was he was trying to sign Mike Cammalleri for the Neverland All-Nighters pick-up team just before he died.

Pelted with rocks by an angry mob and the corpse dumped into a limepit is what Michael Jackson deserves.
