(The Insider) Michael Jackson was laid to rest at a private burial service attended by his family and a number of famous friends in Glendale, California on Thursday evening more than two months after his shocking death.
Jackson's parents, brothers, sisters, and his three children joined fellow mourners including Elizabeth Taylor, Stevie Wonder, Macaulay Culkin, Mila Kunis, Al Sharpton, Quincy Jones, and Chris Tucker at the outdoor service in Forest Lawn Memorial Park. According to People, Jackson's ex-wife Lisa Marie Presley was also in attendance to pay her respects.
The large crowd of mourners gathered before Jackson's coffin and a portrait of the late icon. Gladys Knight sang a song in tribute to her late friend.
Jackson's remains will be entombed in the cemetery’s Great Mausoleum, which is also the final resting place of deceased stars such as Clark Gable, Jean Harlow, and W.C. Fields. The section of the mausoleum the King of Pop calls home is closed to the public and protected by security. Visitors will be able to visit "The Last Supper Window," which is a stained-glass recreation of Leonardo da Vinci's famous work of art. Presentations about the window are given everyday year-round. This display is in another section of The Great Mausoleum.
