Wednesday Roundup
A who's who from the world of sports and entertainment came out to pay their last respects to the King Of Pop, Michael Jackson. The memorial service began with his five brothers, Tito, Jackie, Jermaine, Marlon and Randy carrying Jackson's gold coffin into the Staples Center as the Andre Crouch choir sang "Soon And Very Soon". Heartfelt performances from Lionel Richie, Mariah Carey, Jennifer Hudson and Stevie Wonder as well as a poem written by Maya Angelaou and read by Queen Latifah capped off a moving tribute to one of the world's greatest entertainters. Smokey Robinson, Berry Gordy, Magic Johnson and Kobe Bryant shared fond memories of Jackson. The ceramony came to an emotional end with Jackson's daughter Paris speaking. Michael, may you rest in the peace that eluded you on earth. You will always be remembered.
