A memorial service for Michael Jackson is set for Tuesday at the Staples Center in LA, with possibly two sessions at 10am and another at noon, and apparently tickets for these memorials are going to be up for grabs soon.

Some sites are reporting that these tickets will be sold for $25 dollars a pop, I can’t imagine the Jackson family would actually charge people to attend these services. A spokesperson for the Staples Center has said the tickets will be offered up for free, so I guess we all play the waiting game to find out whats going to happen.

We’ve waited this long for the memorial service, I guess we can wait a little longer to see how this plays out. In the mean time Empire Tickets is the place to go for these tickets when and if they even become available.

Update: 11,000 tickets will be handed out for free.

David Carradine’s family hired  Dr. Michael Baden of HBO’s “Autopsy” series to perform a second autopsy once his body was returned to the US and he found that David had died of asphyxiation, which rules out suicide.

“The cause of death was asphyxiation, an inability to breathe, now why that happened is still what we’re working on,” Baden told the news service. Dr. Baden said the cause of death meant that suicide was ruled out as a possibility.

“He didn’t die of natural causes, and he didn’t die of suicidal causes from the nature of the ligatures around the body, so that leaves some kind of accidental death,” he said.

Wow, this whole thing just keeps getting more and more strange! David was found dead in a Bangkok hotel room last month.

In an attempt to pay tribute to the late Michael Jackson Ok! magazine has decided to put a picture of his lifeless body with a respirator over his mouth with the words “in loving memory” next to it. The magazine apparently paid $500,000 for the picture in an attempt to cash in on the death of an icon.

This is horrible, no one wants to remember him that way! So how is this paying tribute to him? The picture is similar to the one that E! also put up on their website. I found a copy of the pic on this website, thank goodness it’s tiny!

Actor Karl Malden who starred along with Marlon Brando in The Waterfront and Michael Douglas in The Streets of San Francisco  has passed away at the age of 97 of natural causes. Many of us may remember him telling us not to leave home without an American Express card in a series of 1980s TV commercials.

Malden was known for his tough guy attitude and having a crooked nose, he won a Supporting Actor Oscar for his role as Mitch in 1951’s A Streetcar Named Desire.

Malden also stared in a handful of movies including Baby Doll (1956), Fear Strikes Out (1957), Pollyanna (1960), Birdman of Alcatraz (1962), Gypsy (1962), How the West Was Won (1962), The Cincinnatti Kid (1965) and Patton

He is survived by his wife Nona, and daughters Mila and Cara. Michael Douglas had these kind words to say about the late actor:

“It was Karl more than anyone who got me to understand that an actor is just one part of a whole team that makes a TV series or a movie work. And thanks to him, I learned about the dichotomy of standing alone in a craft where one must collaborate.”

PEOPLE.com is confirming the details of Michael Jackson’s last will and testament. Apparently Michael left all his assets to the Michael Jackson Family Trust and has named his mother Katherine as guardian of his children, Prince, 12, Paris, 11, and Blanket, 7. His father, who was rumored to have been left out of the will, was not excluded in the document.

“There are no numbers in the will,” says a source familiar with the document. “The assets are going into the family trust.”

Attorney John Branca and John McClain, a music executive, are named as executors, and for privacy reasons no names of the beneficiaries in the will have been released.

Long time love Ryan O’Neal and best friend Alana Stewart were among a handful of family and friends to bid farwell to Farrah Fawcett during her funeral today, which was held at the Cathedral of Our Lady of Angels in LA.

Farrah’s son Redmond was able to attend, reading a passage from the Bible (Lamentations 3: 17 - 26). Ryan read the second reading (Wisdom 3: 1- 9). Former Charlie’s Angels costars Jaclyn Smith and Kate Jackson were also spotted entering the entering the ceremony.

The programs handed out at the ceremony included a picture of Farrah on the cover in a sequined dress giving a huge smile to the camera as her signature hair runs curly and free. On the inside of the cover was a quote from the poem At That Hour by James Joyce:

Play on, invisible harps, unto Love,
Whose way in heaven is aglow
At that hour when soft lights come and go,
Soft sweet music in the air above
And in the earth below.
