No Neverland Viewing For Michael Jackson Fans

We’ve just learned that there will be no burial or viewing at the Neverland Ranch for Michael Jackson on Friday or ever.

The Jackson family has just released this statement: “Contrary to previous news reports, the Jackson family is officially stating that there will be no public or private service for Michael Jackson at Neverland. Plans are underway regarding a public memorial for Michael Jackson, and we will announce those plans shortly.”

Neverland has also gotten its newest tenant. Christian Audigier has announced plans to move in and rent the mansion. Michael had been living there, paying $100,000 in rent.

I think it would’ve been better for his fans if they would’ve held a memorial service at the ranch, but that’s my opinion. What do you think? Think the Staples Center would be a better venue?
