I think Dick Clark is too, but that might just be the makeup.

Is Helen Thomas still kicking?

I shouldn't have said that because now someone is sure to post her picture.

Artists who make a connection with a lot of people have always been mourned in over the top fashion. Sorry to hear about your son.

Just a few...Elvis, John Lennon and now Michael Jackson. Very rare club of celebrity.

All well blessed by the muse Euterpe!

Kicking--no, but she manages to shuffle into the White House Press Room most days for her nap.

Bruises, marks, blood, reports of recent threats, heavy debt issues, inconsistent stories from any occupants, doctors at the ER seeing something unusual etc etc.

Lots of LAPD detectives now inside the residence, approaching an hour now.

This is a level of celebrity that’s not possible to achieve today.

It would be nice if they can have a somewhat nice, normal life.

Hopefully they will have as normal life as possible.

I'm just shocked. Never expected Michael to die so young.

His creepiness aside the guy was massively talented.

NBC was going to do a tribute to Farrah Fawcett tonight, bet that gets pre-empted now.

That's probably true, altbough they really won't be able to fill it in with the professional obituary/tribute that Jackson will get.

Personally, I feel sorry for Fawcett, and I think the world might be a better place without MJ.

That's just cold, heartless me, and I will not argue with anyone who will miss his musical talent, which was unquestionable.

But this does not rise to even Buddy Holly or Jim Croce status in terms of being cut down in a career. The best stuff Jackson did was at least 20 years ago, and there was nothing new on the horizon.

Done it.

Thank God there is baseball on.

I for one am already sick of the idol worship that is being accorded this sick bastard, child molester.

Good riddance to the deviant freakshow.
