From BlackVoices:
Michael Jackson's mausoleum might be a tourist venue, real soon, if his brother, Randy, has anything to do with it.
Jackson is hoping to turn a private area at Forest Lawn Cemetery in Glendale, California into a place that fans of the late King of Pop can gather to commemorate the 'Thriller' singer on the June 25 anniversary of his death, similar to Graceland, the former home turned attraction where fans of Elvis Presley pay homage to the late King of Rock 'N' Roll.
Randy took to his Twitter page and wrote, "I'm meeting with Forest Lawn and the City of Glendale. Although they have strict rules, I'll do my best 2 see if fans can visit & pay their respects beyond the gates of Forest Lawn, on the 25th. I will inform you all soon."
