Michael Jackson Memorial Will Cost $25 A Head

The Michael Jackson memorial service at the Staples Center will be open to fans willing to pay the cover charge. RadarOnline.com has the latest:

Family, friends and VIPS will have seats on the main floor for The Tuesday, July 7th Staples service, first reported by RadarOnline.com, while the general public will be plucking down $25 to sit in the stands.

The memorial service will feel like a concert production featuring guest speakers, a lot of music and video screens inside and outside of Staples, a source close to the planning tells RadarOnline.com.

Michael Jackson’s close friend Elizabeth Taylor is expected to attend, along with Diana Ross.

T-shirts that were going to be sold on Michael’s upcoming “This Is It” tour will not go to waste. They will be sold outside Staples to people entering the service.

Will the memorial service make a profit? Who gets the proceeds?
