WESTWOODAmerican icon and pop singer Michael Jackson died on Thursday, June 25, according to breaking reports. TMZ first reported that Jackson, 50, passed away.
Jackson was known for his slew of popular songs over the last four decades, including "Thriller" and "Billie Jean" and for his now-legendary mini-movie/music video for "Thriller" which is still a very popular song and music video today, more than 20 years later.
Jackson was also known for his singular antics off the stage, including his wearing of pajamas to court appearances and apparently dangling one of his children off of a balcony.
According to available information, authorities responded to a call that Jackson was in distress early on Thursday afternoon, and soon after transported him to the world famous UCLA Medical Center.
MichaelJackson.com reveals that the singer and proclaimed "King of Pop" was scheduled to perform in quite a few concerts in the United Kingdom between July 8, 2009 and March 6, 2010.
Jackson would have been 51 this August.
No big lose, never did like that HUH!!! guy? A lot to do about nothing.
Yeah I agree. He led a tragic life. The biggest mistake was moving from Gary Indiana to California.
Yep, MJ died for me decades ago....the little boy who sang “I’ll Be There” when I was a youngster is long gone.
I do not doubt that Jackson had humble beginnings. Whether he did or not, he made his living on his own without shake downs or blackmail under the pretense of racial bullsh@t. My comment was aimed at Sharpton, I'm just thoroughly tired of the race baiting at this point.
Will his 72 virgins be girls or boys?
Bea Arthur is in there somewhere.
Sure enough, IMDB list April 25, 2009 as her date of death.
Allah bless - he supposedly converted to the mooselimb cult.
The Goldblum story is a complete hoax. Look at the BS source you cited.
Yes, look about 3 posts after mine where someone alerted me to it and then my “Oops”. We all make mistakes.
Who would ever believe the Kieth Richards would survive Michael Jackson??

You truly can't be serious. Are you living in the 21st century?
Since you clarified your protestation, I will clarify mine. All of your criticism came within less than 3 hours of the breaking news coverage. I REALLY don't think an infamous person like Michael Jackson is going to get just top of the hour coverage, only, when there is lots of questions about his death.
the three were David Carradine, Ed McMahon, Farah Fawcett and now Michael Jackson covers the "either/or" category.
