According to
Mailonline, Michael Jackson’s manager has revealed the rift within the Jackson family over the tragic superstar’s funeral this week.
And he has disclosed that although he believed the singer was generally fit and healthy before his shock death, he had warned him about a sudden weight loss as the star worked hard to prepare for his marathon 50 concerts in London.
Business manager Dr Tohme Tohme said Jackson’s brothers and father Joe wanted a shrine for Michael at the Neverland Ranch but his mother and sisters vetoed the idea.
His Jackson Five brothers also wanted an open coffin funeral, similar to that of soul singer James Brown, and for the star to be driven through the streets so that mourners could throw flowers, as at Princess Diana’s funeral.
Katherine has yet to decide if Jackson's three children will attend the memorial, but if they do, they'll be at the Staples Center without their glittery masks on.
