Michael Jackson dead: 1958 - 2009

[akshatp]

Cnn just jumped on the "he is dead" bandwagon citing CBS and LA Times as sources

 

[zoiks]

The LATimes is getting hammered.

I am very sad by this news.

I loved his music.

R.I.P.

The weird thing about unexpected celebrity deaths is how quickly their obituary/life story articles come out. I mean, CNN already has 2 up. They obviously write them ahead of time and fluff them up every year or so. Kind of morbid.

They have it premade - there was a faux pass couple years ago when cnn posted an obituary for a living person (jimmy carter iirc)

How long until hes alive again, lets get the bets going.

CNN is now reporting that Michael Jackson has died.

I loved MJ but will his children live a normal life now?

 

[drum]

This could be the start of an epic Thriller follow up album

they're not on the air at least

ZOMG - listening to CNN they're talking about how there are people that live in vans outside of his rented mansion, so that they can be close to him.

It will be another Elvis where noone believes it.

Brad and Angelina will adopt them.

He has passed away according to several news outlets. That just breaks my heart. He may was weird, but no question in my mind the single greatest entertainer ever to live. Man, I love his music. He also just changed the world of music videos. With Farrah passing,this has just been a very sad sad day.

 

[OCGuy]

OP needs to update thread.

Actually, it's not the rule of 3, it's the rule of 146,000.

Wow I'm in shock. Weird guy, but I was a huge huge MJ fan growing up. My nephew, age 12 doesn't get why him dying is this huge thing even though he knows who he was. But for a child of the 80's like me when Mike was at his peak this is huge. Wow.

 

[Deeko]

Thriller just came on my Zune.

That's sad.
