Jackson fans await ticket results


Fans who took part in an online draw to attend Michael Jackson's memorial service on Tuesday are set to find out if they have won one of 17,500 tickets.


More than 1.6m people signed up for the chance to be at the ceremony being held at the Staples 1 Center in Los Angeles.


A total of 11,000 tickets are being issued for the service with another 6,500 issued for a simulcast (同时播放)of the ceremony at the nearby Nokia Theatre.


Fans selected will get two tickets and will be notified by e-mail on Sunday.


Jackson family spokesman Ken 2 Sunshine said officials at AEG, the owner and operator of the Staples Center, would "scrub" the entries to eliminate(剔除) duplicates and any suspected of being made by automated 3 systems.


British fans 'left out'


Ticket holders 4 will receive a unique code and instructions on how to pick up their tickets on Monday, where they will also receive a wristband (袖口)that will be placed on their wrist at the time.


Sunshine said measures were being taken to prevent ticket-touting, adding that fans must have both the ticket and the wristband to enter the Staples Center on Tuesday and wristbands that have been ripped, taped or tampered 5 with will be void.


City officials are preparing for massive crowds and have urged people to stay at home and watch the memorial on TV amid estimates up to 700,000 people may flood the area in trying to reach the arena 6.


Meanwhile British fans are angry about being left out of the memorial plans due to the short notice arrangements for the ceremony.


Matt Blank from the Michael Jackson World Network fan club told the BBC: "It could be as late as four o'clock Monday morning that fans in the UK find out if they are successful or not with the tickets.


"If they are, they've then got 24 hours to get to America - and flights will be through the roof once they realise how popular flights to Los Angeles are - that's if they can get flights at all."


On Sunday, new footage(片段) released by the News Of The World showed Michael Jackson being quizzed by lawyers in 1996 in a wrongful dismissal civil case.


The video shows the singer being interviewed by lawyer Michael Ring who represented a group of Neverland workers in the case which Jackson later won.
