Interesting Article about burial from CNN.com

Some quotes from the article:

Jackson's burial may lay to rest some of the mystery and controversy that erupted with his sudden death on June 25.

The guest list included TV executive Suzanne de Passe, whoproduced a
miniseries about Jackson's family, and Kenny Ortega, who was producing
Jackson's comeback show.

Oh interesting...here in Germany in the videotext they mentioned esp. the cameras
and explained "The cameras were needed to take some recordings for the >this is it movie<"....
that seemed strange to me.

ok... i heard one of the BBC commentators say "blah blah blah.. michael jackson's family and cast.... sorry, i mean family and friends"...

It says:
Obwohl große Scheinwerfer und eine Kamera über der Örtlichkeit installiert waren,
konnten die vielen Fans, die sich vor der Absperrung versammelt hatten, kaum einen
Blick auf die Feier erhaschen.

Man vermutet, dass die Kamera, Bilder für die Jackson Dokumentation "this is it"
auffangen sollte.

I try to translate:
Although there were big spotlights and a camera installed above the scene, the many fans
who gathered in front of the barrier couldn't get a glimpse of the celebration/ceremony.

It's supposed, that the camera should catch pics for the Jackson documentary "this is it".

To the German members. feel free to correct me...my English is not really good

Wherever, whatever, have a nice day !

"As darkness fell, police escorted the family's motorcade of 31 cars, including Rolls-Royces and Cadillacs, from their compound in Encino to Forest Lawn, about a 20-minute journey, with the hearse bearing Jackson's body at the end."

Did anyone else catch that in the yahoo article? His body wasn't in the motorcade was it?
