Gosh, how do Muslims feel about blood transfusions? Better run get my Koran... just kidding.

Do hope he makes it, but CPR isn’t a good sign.

[Mopp4]

...and we’re told it was cardiac arrest and that paramedics administered CPR in the ambulance.

Maybe "Beat it" was playing on the ambulance radio. Sick I know..but couldn't resist..

MJ was THE most over rated performer of our time with only 1 super selling record. We call that a "one trick pony".

I heard he converted to Islam, at the behest of his brother, Randy.

That would make sense since Mohamed and his followers love little boys in a carnal way.

Prayers for him and his family....

Now that is creepy.

TMZ: We’ve just learned Michael Jackson was taken by ambulance to a hospital in Los Angeles ... and we’re told it was cardiac arrest and that paramedics administered CPR in the ambulance.

He was picked up at his home around 20 minutes ago — we’re told his mother is on the way to visit him.

UPDATE: The 911 call came in at 12:21PM at his Holmby Hills home in L.A.

I had always imagined that, because I’m Tired of Laundry as well.

I figured he just looked back because of all the plastic surgery and because he was so white.

So, it doesn’t matter how many chest compressions you do if the blood is not getting to the brain.

Very true.

‘Off the Wall’ and ‘Bad’ sold quite a lot.

Considering how much of a drama queen this guy is, (I think he pulled the same stunt during his sexual molestation trial) I wouldn’t expect this to be very serious.

He’s trying to manipulate someone.

:0)

I wish I could find the pic I saw which extrapolated what Michael would have looked like had he let nature take its course, it showed he would have been a rather handsome black man if he had.

[tioga]

he’s 51.........too young to have a fatal heart attack and too old for cocaine......but it’s one or the other. in any case the children will be free of him.

[brytlea]

Hmmmm...you need to stay home and not do anything dangerous for the rest of the day!

"Hmmmmmmmmmmmm I was reading a farrah thread earlier today and someone said they thought MJ would be the next to go......eerie........"

I don't recall seeing a posting where it said MJ, but I do remember one that said Patrick Swazik would probably be next.
