Michael Jackson apparently died in hospital after suffering a suspected heart attack.

Did not expect that.

You are getting ahead of your self here, The Mighty Atom. As of 6:20pm Eastern Standard Time, Michael Jackson is still alive, but he is apparently in critical condition at a Los Angeles hospital due to a suspected heart attack. This story is still developing, so anything can happen....

Really?
Our local news network says otherwise...
Guess we'll have to wait and see what will happen.

Damn you are right! The LA Times is reporting him dead now! And it was in a LA hospital where he was taken to, so he could very well be dead then.

I don't know what to say... Or to be happy, or sad, because while he did all that awful stuff, he did have good music...

The man was obviously very troubled mentally, but he was a genius musically.

Even if you're not a fan, you can't deny the impact he had on pop, and the significance of his death.

When he was black and he made good music I liked him, when he turned white and started touching little boys I lost all respect for him.

Why does it seem like everybody important in the world is suddenly dying?
Posted 15 years ago2009-06-25 21:14:06 UTC Post #268920
I've already received 3 joke emails about his death.

"Whacko Jacko Cacko from Cardiaco Attacko"

"Michael Jackson requested sea burial so he can be tied between two buoys"

"Michael Jackson's face to be melted down and turned into a Playstation so little boys can still play with him"

Lowbrow, but I laughed dammit.

Hahaha, Strider.

I never liked the guy. He was annoyingly creepy and I couldn't care less about his music.

If he's still at his prime, the musical world would experience a loss.

But his prime was several decades ago.

I don't miss him anymore. Only his past is still relevant.

Apparently Michael Jackson was hard at work recording a new album and producing a few videos for these past few months, or at least that's what I keep hearing on the news now. But the really big thing that's coming out now, is that he had already lined up a big concert tour spanning the U.S. and the U.K., but the incredible part about all this, most of the concert venues were at near sold out levels! Yep, it sure sounds like a big come back was being engineered for it to start at the end of this year.

Crazy times. I liked thriller. I also liked the youtube video where they get an entire prison with real inmates to act all zombie like and dance to the thriller music. He will be missed.
Posted 15 years ago2009-06-26 01:16:01 UTC Post #268933
I can't say that I'm really sad to hear that he died. Like others have said, his prime had long since passed. After that, he was living as "just another guy" (take that term with a grain of salt).

Now, whether or not some of you liked his music, you at least have to acknowledge what he did for music and dancing.
There's a legacy there.

Edit: Looks like that's already been said many more times than I thought.

He still left behind a family and 3 kids...sure he took some scrutiny and it may or may not be true, but he did okay...even if he was a whackjob
Posted 15 years ago2009-06-26 02:20:16 UTC Post #268938
he went crazy in his middle ages, don't know what caused it, all those face lifts and scandals on the news. but yeah, he was a very good singer, the first black star etc etc.

Never cared for his music, but I still feel sorry for him. He's been sick for a long time, and imagine the mental stress he had to endure with his debts and the constant lawsuits and so on. Dying at age 50 in a heartattack is no way to go.
Posted 15 years ago2009-06-26 07:43:56 UTC Post #268951
Poor guy. his music was allright in my opinion. Terrible way to go.
And it totally dwarfs that charlie's angels chick dying.
Forgot her name. I didn't really know anything about her though.
All i know is the local radio stations have been playing like.. 4 of his songs per hour.

Oddly, he thought it was okay to share a bed with a kid even when you're unrelated. He said that sex with that kid didn't even cross his mind, and that he'd slit his wrists before he'd do that. I'm kinda convinced he wasn't a pedo, and was just brought up in an unusual way.

Also those jokes were recycled as all hell.

I just read on Yahoo! news page that Michael Jackson left a combined debt of over $400,000,000! (four hundred million) He spent a lot more than what he took in, and believe me, he took in a whole lot! The opulence of his lifestyle was legendary, even by your average rich person's standards. The real fun will start soon when they start fighting over his "estate assets".

I don't know about that. Cardiac arrest is pretty good compared to how most celebrities seem to go.
Oddly, he thought it was okay to share a bed with a kid even when you're unrelated.
Parents do this with their kids all the time, and there isn't anything sexual about it. Really nothing should change if it's another kid, but for some reason the American society (at least) is increasingly convinced that any kind of act of affection toward someone unrelated to you is sexual.

@The_(c)Striker: Have you ever seen any of those Michael Jackson look-alikes or impersonators? Sometimes they even have some pretty big festivals out of them. Anyway, here's the Michael Jackson page of an agency that specializes in celebrity look-alikes: http://www.splitting-images.com/michael_jackson.html

Who knows, instead of using a statue of him, maybe they might use one of these look-alikes...

Im getting wierd stuff too in my emails-

"Hey, they just found out that michael jackson didn't die from a heart attack. He died of food poisioning. He was found with 12 year old nuts lodged into the back of his mouth."

A coffin will rise from the stage floor and a zombie version of him will walk out and perform "Thriller" and shock everyone.

lol a look-a-like site. Never seen one before. Look at the Jim Carrey one. It's a perfect copy.

Anyawy, it's possible that MJ died because of his drugs he took regularly.

Sad all the same, he was very talented.
