Where is the Body?

Michael Jackson's body has been stashed in Motown founder Berry Gordy's crypt.
His remains were brought back to the white marble, above-ground crypt the Motown record-label founder bought for his family in the Court of Remembrance section of Forest Lawn Cemetery in the Hollywood Hills.
Jackson's body is still missing his brain, which coroners are temporarily keeping for testing.
Aside from Jackson, the simple mausoleum is empty and marked only with a distinctive swooping letter "G."
For the time being, Jackson lies with a who's who of Hollywood heavyweights. Next door is the final resting place of American sweetheart actress Sandra Dee, who died in 2005. And nearby are ornate crypts of Bette Davis and flamboyant pianist Liberace.
Gordy -- who discovered the Jackson 5 -- offered the family use of the crypt until they sort out how to make the most money out of Micheal going forward.
On one side are Jackson's brother Jermaine and father, Joseph, who are insistent the Gloved One be buried at Neverland Ranch so the family can profit off a proposed Graceland-style museum there -- a process that could take years.

Jersey Boys in Detroit

Pop vocal combo Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons may be remembered for many things, but being Motown artists is probably not one of them. Yet, for a brief time in the early 1970s, the New Jersey-based combo were active on the Mowest subsidiary, while Valli himself was a full-fledged member of the Motown family.
Now, for the first time ever, Hip-oSelect.com collects the great Motown albums and singles of the Four Seasons and solo Frankie Valli released from 1972 through 1975. The Motown Years, a 2-CD set compiled with the cooperation of the group, features the album Chameleon and the LP issued as a Valli solo set, Inside You, along with every U.S. and U.K. single not included on either LP.
