R.I.P. Love him or hate him you can't deny he had talent, especially on his "Thriller" album.

Apparently all the family has not been notified, but it is confirmed now. When paramedics arrived he had already passed away around 12:43 or so. He had no pulse when they arrived. They brought him to the hospital and put him on life support, apparently people were begging that his life be saved.,but they could never regain a pulse. That is why the time of death is 3:15pm P.S.T.. I grew up with his music, and danced my brains out to it. He had ,had a very ruff last ten years here in California. One of my best friends husbands, was his Doctor in Santa Barbara, when he was going thru his trial. It was a circus for all involved. I am glad the circus is over now. Another brilliant entertainer is gone. I will miss his originality in music. Hail to the King of POP!

Alex thank you so much for posting that. I feel very gratetful, for the many concerts I was able to attend and see Michael. Those videos bring back so many memories, "OH THE GLOVED ONE!" I had almost forgotten about that second video. I had forgotten how many talented people were involved with the making of it. Michael had the largest contribution to the production of that video, and where the proceeds went. With all the controversy that was his life, people tend to forget his humanitarianism. Another candle flickers out tonight! Thanks so much again! King of POP goodnight!

Had he passed in his prime, I'd be more inclined to be saddened by this news. As it is, I think it's being hugely overblown.
Sorry for being callous, but his freaky behaviour of the last decade has tarnished all he'd done prior. I do hope he is now at peace.

I wish newspapers would stop putting post early 80s pictures of Michael on the front. I want the Thriller MJ or even the Jackson 5 MJ. That's how I'll always picture him!
No matter how strange he became in recent years...man, hundreds of MILLIONS of albums sold. It's a feat I don't think any individual will ever obtain again.

king of pop-not...great talent yes but hes been doa since 1984-since he started his freak show.thriller was a great album so was off the wall...but not epic music at all...he was a star for 15yrs and a freak for the last 25yrs....i dont get the news coverage...his pedophelia and drugged out looney tunes state of mind were reprehensible and shameful.Too bad most media dared not to call him out on his disturbing behavior.
