Finally Shep reports Michael Jackson has died.
Condolences to Michael Jackson’s family and friends. Talent extraordinaire. One of the greatest entertainers ever.
RIP Michael Jackson
Shep says he’s dead again..
LOL, I remember back in elementary school if you were “cool” you dug “The Jackson Five” and the dweebs liked the Osmonds.
I always felt bad for his children. Prayers for the children & his family.
And, he’s comparing him to Elvis, and Sinatra. And, the freaks from his molestation trial are now showing up. Makes my head hurt...
First thing I thought of as well!
Aww, you’re sweet! I’ll try to remember that. :)
Jackson was a major talent, there is no questions about it. He was a freak too, no question about that.
IMO, he was a child molester.
I believe that too. But that doesn’t have anything to do with the level of musical talent he had.
Pinin’ for the fjords?

You know, I wasn’t expecting that Michael Jackson wouldn’t survive this, and I just want to post that my comment was made prior to news of his death. My intent was to be a tiny bit silly about LK. I’m very sorry, and I ask forgiveness should my comment be offensive to anyone.
I wanted MJ to make it. I really did. And never thought two pop icons - esp. MJ, would be gone today before sunset.
I have two sisters who played the Jackson Five and Donny Osmond almost constantly. I was always into more esoteric things myself than whatever happened to be big in the pop culture at a given time.
CPR would have been hard. Don’t you have to hold the nose to breath into the mouth?
I just recently got Dish.. looked on the list & cant find TMZ - does it have another name?
What an incredible loss. I hope he got some of the spiritual & Emotional issues in place..
crap. Last night I went to the funeral of the 33 year old daughter of a friend (that my son had dated as teens) of cancer & know how fragile life is and what a gift each day
is
I think most of us know that GetMe.. tis okay
Thriller was an epic album. His music was great up until about 20 years ago.
At 13 years old I was a huge MJ fan during the Thriller years and I even had his posters up in my room. Those were the days when he was normal.
He could dance like nobody's business too.
It's a shame he turned out so weird and interested young boys (which is criminally nuts). He was an extremely sad person and never really found out where he belonged in the world. Fame and money doesn't always make a person happy and Michael is a perfect example of this.
