The close, lifelong ties between Michael Jackson's and his friend Diana Ross are made dramatically clear in his 2002 will – he chose her to raise his three children if his mother is unable to do so.

The Jackson family matriarch Katherine Jackson, who is now watching the children, is named as the primary guardian, followed by Ross, 65, if Katherine dies or "is unwilling or able" to act as guardian, according to the will, released Wednesday.

As for what Jackson leaves behind, a petition attached to the will values his estate at $500 million – nearly all of it "non-cash, non-liquid assets" in the form of a lucrative music catalog and "interests in various entities."

The inheritance goes into the Michael Jackson Family Trust, administered by lawyer John Branca, music executive John McClain and accountant Barry Siegel

Gosh it's been so long since I've read moonwalk but I remember him writing about how much he loved living with her when he was young, and how he fell in love with her. If I remember correctly, he talked about how difficult it was to be her best man since he didn't want to give her off to another man.

They really did seem to be very close.. and that WMA clip is so cute! :lol:

Diana Ross is the ideal backup guardian, no doubt about it. Michael made the right decision.

I got a nice laugh out of that.

Diana is not a bad choice as guardian should Katherine pass away. Michael must have seen something special in her.

He loved her so much and I bet she loved him.
