Janet Jackson is dismissing reports she’s engaged to her wealthy Arab businessman boyfriend Wissam Al Mana.
Appearing on “Good Morning America” on Oct. 25 to promote her new film “For Colored Girls,” the singer-actress said, “He’s a very, very private man so I don’t talk about our relationship but I really think it’s important that I just say this: they’ve (the press) been trying to marry me off for a very, very long time. But I’m not engaged so I will say that.”

Michael Jackson
Times must be hard when a cemetery starts charging mourners.
Effective immediately, Michael Jackson fans looking to leave flowers at his final resting place will now be hit with a $3 “delivery” fee, according to TMZ.
On June 25th, 2009 we lost the greatest pop singer of our time, Michael Jackson. One year later it is still hard to accept that a man who changed the game of the music business is no longer with us. So today honor MJ by rocking your red leather jacket and your glittered glove.

Big Mike
It’s over for “Big Mike” on “American Idol” – all because of a fictional killer whale. Although Michael Lynche impressed the judges during his second song – a rendition of Bryan Adams’ “Have You Ever Really Loved a Woman” with fellow contestant Casey James – it was his performance of Michael Jackson’s “Will You Be There” from the “Free Willy” soundtrack that did him in.
The panel found his interpretation too “predictable,” and apparently, America did as well. “It was tough,” said the 26-year-old personal trainer from Queens, N.Y. “It’s a really big song.”
Lynche was rescued by the show’s judges five weeks ago, but he received the fewest viewer votes for Tuesday’s movie-themed edition.
There are reports that Michael Jackson was laid to rest last Thursday in a low-key, private ceremony at Hollywood's Forest Lawn Cemetery and attended by a dozen people.
Michael's father Joe and sister La Toya are believed to have been the only family members to attend the secret service, according to World Entertainment News Network.
A cemetery source told the Web site: "Michael has already been laid to rest, but other than the Jackson family and the management at Forest Lawn, no one knows the exact spot. Staff at the cemetery have been fed several different locations, it's as if they are hoping to confuse everyone so it can't leak out. The fear is that thousands of Jackson fans will descend on the cemetery and create a security issue or maybe even damage or deface the grave. If the grave's security is threatened, the Jacksons have reportedly identified four other sites - including the star's former home Neverland and a memorial site in Las Vegas - they will consider moving the body to.
A cemetery spokesman declined to comment on rumors of Jackson's burial, and a rep for the family was not immediately available for comment.
