TwitterMichael Jackson to be buried with one white glove: cool or creepy?
Michael Jackson will be reportedly wear one of his favorite white sparkly gloves in his coffin.
Gaspar Gloves owner Dorothy Gaspar, who designed gloves for the "This Is It" tour, tells TMZ that Michael's sister La Toya Jackson wanted Michael to wear a glove inside the casket.
La Toya chose a white leather glove Dorothy made for Michael 10 to 12 years ago -- a white leather glove covered in Swarovski crystals.
It's not that far-fetched. Read about what other celebrities have worn to their own funeral.
Civilizations have long buried their dead with clothing, riches and personal items. King Tut was buried with a solid gold mask on his mummified head, hundreds of gold figurines, an ebony and ivory chair, ornamental vases, weapons, and enough seeds for a sizable garden in the afterlife.
Actor Bela Lugosi, most famous for his role as Dracula, was buried in his long flowing high-collared vampire cape. What, no earth from his homeland?
Humphrey Bogart starred in the 1944 film "To Have and Have Not" with Lauren Bacall, his fourth wife. One of her lines to Bogie was, "If you need anything, just whistle." Bacall put a whistle inscribed with that line inside the silver urn with his ashes when he was interred in 1957.
Whether MJ will be buried encased in concrete to prevent grave robbers is another matter.
That's just a rumor, folks -- one among hundreds of unconfirmed whispers floating around the Web. Believe what you will.

You got the Lauren Bacall quote wrong. She says," You know how to whistle, don't you, Steve? You just put your lips together and... blow."
Why creepy? Cool, yes!
I am not a jackson fan so I will be glad when all this idol hoop la is over with cause I am sick of hearng about it!!! cannot even turn on the tv with hearing about michael jackson ...there is only ONE KING and that is JESUS CHRIST....michael was NO king...what does it profit a man to gain the world and to lose his soul in hell......that what the bible says...
I believe if we can auction that glove, one of his fans might get lucky to own that glove and the money collected can be given to an orphanage.. I guess that's better than letting that glove go in his coffin.
Dude you are such a shithead. Nobody wants to hear about what you think about MJ. Why don't you bury your head up your *** you ******* creationist loser? Jesus was a ******* ****. MJ was the man.
i agree that the glove should be on auction because i believe this is also what mj wishes
