What the hell is going on in Los Angeles?
Ed McMahon
Farrah Fawcett
...maybe Michael Jackson?
Yikes!
MJ
I know it is TMZ news, but I thought I'd Share it anyway.
There's a report that he's dead, but I saw that on the TMZ site. I haven't seen anything anywhere else.
CNN & MSNBC are just reporting that he went to the hospital - not that he has died. I guess we will see.
These things happen in threes....
According to TMZ he is dead.
Sky Sunlight Saxon died today too.
MSNBC is now reporting he is dead.
Where is that celebrity death pool site? They are probably having a field day over there today.
Notice how there is not a SINGLE mention of his kids.
CBC is now reporting his death as well. CNN refuses to confirm it.
If it were Michelle Jackson instead of Michael, the kids would have been the first thing mentioned after the cause of death. I feel bad for those children. They've already had such a crazy life, and now things are going to be even worse for awhile.
I was not a fan, but his music was ubiquitous.
Was it 1982 when the Thriller video premiered on MTV? I remember I threw a party and we all watched it. That was The Thing to Do at the time.
I always thought his music was pure awful, but it's the fact that he gave children "jesus juice" so he could get them into a helpless state in order to molest them that made me despise him. Child molesters do all kinds of things to lure kids, like getting puppies or hanging out in arcades and shit like that. What better way to lure children than being a rich star and building your own private amusement park? He made me sick every time I saw him, those kids he fucked with are ruined. At least other kids are safe now and I don't have to hear any more new "music" from him. I think I was the only kid in middle school that thought Thriller was a piece of shit.
Despicable creep. Why was he ever alive?
I love young Michael (Jackson 5 era) and Thriller was the first album I ever bought. (The first ever owned was one found by my brother).
I didn't much care for him after that even before the excessive weirdness, allegations, and kids came along.
Also, every story I've seen or heard tonight DID mention the kids. Hopefully they will go live with their mother (whoever that is) and live more of a normal life.
I wish the kids luck. I can't imagine what sort of an influence he was, but yes, much better off with their mother.
I think we're going to hear a lot more about Michael Jackson for a long time. In a few days or weeks, the fight over his estate, vast fortune and custody of the kids will begin. Everybody ever associated with him will want one last chance at the piece of the pie. People will come out of the wood work claiming they're owed money by Jackson. People will come out saying they were molested by him when they were kids and want compensation. I can see it getting ugly, especially the custody of the kids. Whoever gets custody is going to get millions for child care, so there will be a line up of people wanting custody (aka Anna Nicole Smith's situation) since there was no mother involvement in raising the kids.
Well, I think he was overdosed on rx meds, and for a long time too, and mixed with alcohol too!!
Good Riddance, he was such a mess anyways!
I'm shocked he lived this long, he's looked near death for a decade. He's also looked downright miserable, it wouldn't surprise me if he was trying to kill himself.
Personally I think his kids are much better off, maybe now they won't have to walk around with masks on. One of them is almost a teenager.
I loved him in the 80s, and still hold his Thriller in high regard. His music, dance and music videos were works of art imho. His more recent personal life and music...eh no comment.
