Somehow, James Brown is still not buried! He passed away before the Anna Nicole Smith debacle began and is still awaiting placement in his final resting place. It has been seventy-three whopping days since the singer’s passing on December 25th of last year, and counting. According to TMZ:

Brown’s trustees want DNA samples taken before the singer is entombed. Meanwhile, the decomposing Godfather of Soul is being held in a climate-controlled undisclosed location.

OMG, why is DNA so big this season?
