JACKSON WILL BE WEARING ICONIC GLOVE AT BURIAL
MICHAEL JACKSON will be buried with his iconic white glove - at the request of his sister LA TOYA JACKSON.
The King of Pop’s longtime costumers, Dennis Tompkins and Michael Bush, designed the Thriller hitmaker’s burial suit, and it has now emerged the superstar’s look was completed with a single white leather glove created by Dorothy Gaspar, who was commissioned to design the gloves for Jackson’s ill-fated This Is It comeback tour.
According to TMZ.com, the accessory chosen by the Jackson family was one covered in Swarovski crystals that Gaspar made for the singer over a decade ago.
Jackson’s brothers, who served as pallbearers at his Staples Center memorial service in Los Angeles on Tuesday (07Jul09), all wore matching yellow ties, sunglasses and the late pop superstar’s trademark glittering glove.
The singer’s gold casket took centre stage at the ceremony and his body is currently being held at a top secret location.
His final resting place remains a mystery, but reports suggest the pop star’s remains have been returned to Forest Lawn Memorial Park in the Hollywood Hills, where family members staged a private service before the public memorial.
A burial permit has reportedly been filed by the family in Los Angeles County, suggesting Jackson’s remains will be interred in Los Angeles.
