funeral

Yesterday afternoon, family and friends gathered at Hillside Memorial Park and Mortuary in West Los Angeles for a private funeral service honoring the celebrity DJ otherwise known as Adam Goldstein.

Goldstein, 36, was found dead in his New York apartment last Friday of a suspected drug overdose.

Travis Barker and actor Scott Caan were among those spotted in attendance at the private ceremony.

Akon fought back tears as he listened to a song that he had recorded with Michael Jackson before the music legend’s sudden death.

The R&B star shared the track, Hold My Hand, with viewers of The Today Show, this morning.

Struggling to speak, a visibly upset Akon said, "He [Michael] always wanted just to bring people together. That's how the concept [for the song] came about, about holding hands, [making] that connection as one.”

Michael Jackson’s family has been forced to scrap plans to bury the King of Pop at his famous Neverland Ranch – having not gotten the required permits in time.

Fans have already started to flock to the California ranch after reports a public viewing would be held there later this week.

Farrah Fawcett's friends and family gathered to bid her farewell in downtown Los Angeles yesterday.

As a hearse bearing Fawcett’s body pulled up to the church, longtime partner Ryan O’Neal, Fawcett's best friend Alana Stewart, and a handful of stars waited outside to receive her.

Michael Jackson is returning to Neverland.

The body of the late singer is being transported from Los Angeles to his Neverland Ranch on Thursday morning.

There will reportedly be a 30-car motorcade following the hearse carrying MJ's body for the 250-mile-trip. Law enforcement officers are currently meeting with the Jackson family to discuss security and traffic control matters.

A public viewing on Friday is also being planned, although at this point it has not been disclosed if the viewing will be free to all or limited to a certain number of fans.

Actress Farrah Fawcett will be laid to rest during a private funeral at the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels in Los Angeles this Tuesday afternoon.

Fawcett, best known for her work on Charlie's Angels and status as a sex symbol, died earlier this week following a long battle with anal cancer.

Our hearts go out to her family and friends during this difficult time.

Liam Neeson and Vanessa Redgrave were among the family and friends who gathered in the small town of Lithgow, New York to bid a final farewell to Tony-award winning actress Natasha Richardson yesterday.

Richardson, 45, died last week due to complications following a ski accident.

Our thoughts are with the family during this terrible time.
