After much speculation that Jackson would be buried at his beloved Neverland in the Santa Ynez Valley near Santa Barbara, it has been reported that Jackson will be buried at Forest Lawn Mortuary, a popular cemetary in Los Angeles, on Tuesday morning, after which a motorcade will go to the 20,000 seat Staples Center colliseum in downtown Los Angeles where a public memorial for Jackson will be held.
Pre-mature and false reports that the memorial would be held in Santa Barbara caused many Jackson fans to buy out all of the area hotels for this upcoming weekend, in anticipation of saying a final farewell to Jackson at such a ceremony.
