Norah’s funeral plans ready

Washington: She’s in the bloom of life, but that has not stopped singer Norah Jones from already working out her burial plans.

The Jazz star revealed that she doesn’t want to be buried, and that she would prefer to be cremated, with her ashes being scattered around Big Bend National Park in her native Texas.

“I don’t want a tombstone — I want to be cremated,” Contactmusic quoted her, as saying.

As for why she wants to be cremated, well Jones revealed to Blender magazine that she found that prospect of decaying slowly very “creepy”.

“I’ve always thought the whole embalming-and-burial thing was creepy. I don’t want to be decaying there in my clothes,” she added.

However, Jones is hoping that she won’t have to put her plan for her last rites into work for a long time yet.
