While the media's behavior about Jackson, including his memorial, was contemptible, the memorial, which presented the risk of being a circus or lurid, or bizarre, spectacle, actually was very well done (and put together in mere days!). Not only did the guy directing this just put himself in much greater future demand, but this may (for better or worse) have created expectations of future memorials of this nature.

Yes, the pinnacle of the memorial to me was Paris's appearance. Noting about it, itself, needs to be said.

Of course, my experience with my goddaughter and her childhood-onward best friend, as well as the two girls of my friend in the next place I lived, probably biases my views. [smile]

No need to worry, really, if Rowe wants future custody of her. She probably won't get it, and she shouldn't. Obviously, as all could see, she's a Jackson. Her family was there, and it's obvious.

I saw the written story about that earlier but could not find the video. Thank you for posting it. It really is heart-breaking.
