Michael Jackson dies at 50
Published by Clay Cane on Thursday, June 25, 2009 at 5:33 pm.
More bad news this week. After Ed McMahon and Farrah Fawcett, Michael Jackson has now left us. First, reports surfaced the pop icon suffered cardiac arrest. Published reports claimed he collapsed in his Holmby Hills mansion shortly after noon. He was taken to UCLA Medical Center in Los Angeles, California.
CNN reported Jackson was being administrated CPR in the ambulance. Then, TMZ broke the news that Michael Jackson passed. CBS News, The LA Times and CNN soon confirmed.
Michael Jackson was preparing for 50 sold-out shows overseas and rehearsing in California. Jackson was only 10 years old when he and his brothers, The Jackson 5, signed with Motown in 1968. Michael and his brothers would become one of the biggest groups of all time with Michael as solo artist becoming the biggest pop star in the world. Throughout controversy and scandal, no one could ever take away Michael’s title as the King of Pop.
Michael was allegedly plagued with health problems for years — Lupus, vitiligo and an addiction to pain killers.
Michael Jackson will be deeply missed by fans and the BET family. Please leave your condolences in the comments.

Michael rest in peace when I heard what happened I couldn’t believe it I will always love u. God is getting another angel. U will be forever missed no more pain. To all the Jackson family stay strong keep the faith u all are in my prayers.My heart is still broken can’t believe Michael is not here. See u one day.We love U
Everyday I see another headline on several newspapers here in london and refuse to purchase them or take in the lies being told to sell papers. For me as a Black woman living in the uk I was proud of michael. Without a doubt there were things that were good and bad in his life but who is without sin? who on this earth is perfect?. We have all been lied against and accussed of things we have never done, even when the truth is there for all to see.
Michael you danced and sang, capturing the world with your magic. You were a gift from God and I’m sorry for the way your beautiful light has faded on this earth. There will never be another and no one can compare. You have left a mark that can never be erased. My heart hurts for the way you left us and I really want to believe this is all a bad dream. I thank God that you were here and pray you are at peace. Nobody can hurt you now and thank you for the years of entertainment that you gave us. You are and will always be the King Of Pop and I love and miss you so much. Farewell dear Michael, my condolences to your family x

Micheal can now rest and don’t have to worry about anything they these PERFECT got to say about him.
The only one that he got to answer to is GOD ALMIGHTY and NOT man.
Like Michael rest and focus on the positive things that he has done.
There will always be people out in this world that NEVER can FORGIVE or FORGET other people wrongful doing. Yet, they always want to remember everything wrong about MICHEAL JACKSON! To the Media, I remember will alot of the other famous people died they didn’t cast them down to the gutter or the mud.
Let’s Focus on his family and their pain of losing a love one.
Let’s Pray for the Jackson Family, Friends and Fans.
Just like Micheal said: (LOOK AT THE MAN IN THE MIRROR).
Michael, u were such a PYT(pretty young thing)! ur talent and musical creativity now leave a vacant place in the world. But through ur generosity and musical legacy, we will never let u go. Where there is love, YOU’LL be there.
Michael, in ur journey, we lost an icon, but gained a legend.
All the hater’s out there don’t mean nuthin, the people who truly love u r the majority, no matter wat any1 says.
LONG LIVE THE KING; 4EVER IN PEACE
Much Luv 2 the Jackson Fam and our MJ, our prayers R all 4 u

On the eve of your memorial I am still deeply sad. The world has lost the best performer we ever had. You had a pure heart and true love ,especially for those less fortunate. Those who wish to speak or think ill are FAR outnumbered by those who saw the truth. God Bless you Micheal. Your family and especially your kids are in my thoughts and prayers. You will live forever in the hearts of millions. Persecution is over, sing, dance be happy and love from the Heavens.

Micheal jackson was a mentor, hero, star, an admirable figure, a person everyone allova the world learnd somting from in oneway or the other. I especially learned great dance moves from him, he gave me a reason to dance, he made me believe in my self and take dance as part of my lyf. Thanks mike u r ma HERO. i will dearly Miss u. Peace n c u up there!!!!!!!!!!!!
I feel like my childhood friend has passed away. Michael you are the best there ever was and the best there ever will be. I pray that the media will now allow your children and the rest of your family to have the peace that they didn’t allow you to have. I know it must be a big party in heaven right now! R.I.P
It has taken me this long to find the words and they still won’t come to me…he’s really gone! The King of Pop, every little girl’s first love, every musician’s idol, is gone to the undiscovered land from whence no traveler returns! To the family, please be strong, watchful and prayerful, as we, the lovers of your family also are strong watchful and prayerful with and for you. To the rest of the “fanfamily”, let us not dignify the ignorance of others with their negativism regarding our friend with any answers or explanantions, and embrace their comments, because had it not been for “haters”, Michael Joseph Jackson and the others before him may have never gotten the positive push that they needed “to make this world a better place” for you and for me! Sleep on Micheal, and take your rest,sure, we love you, but God loves you best! Rest In(Much desereved)Peace!
Never can say Goddbye,
One of your Biggest fans for 30 years!
MICHAEL JANCKSON: Mi mas sentido pesame a una gran persona, gran estrella de este mundo, un gran hombre, mas que el rey del pop. nadie jamas le podra reemplazar ni ser igual a el. tan solo los de mas quieren ser copias, pues todos los artistas solo sean inspirado en el, por ser tan original y creativo. DESCANCE EN PAZ.
Michael Jackson,Iz Mii Supa Hero,When I Waz Lil I Thought He Had Supa Powerz.The Way He Danced Was Juz Outstandin’, R.I.P
i love u michael jackson i miss u and rest in peace.i loved yo songs thriller and if i was there.
This is the most unbelievable news ive had since forever. Micheal Jackson is the KING of pop and he’s gone but he lives still in our hearts his image and music will always be imprinted in our hearts forever he is a legend and will not be forgotten. I kno im still young but this news had a great effect on me as it did for the people who had already been born at the time the King aroused but i know almost all of his songz by heart and find myself doing the danceshes created and listening to the people hes created from his acomplishments that try so hard to follow in his footsteps my heart goes out to his family . Mike is amazing! He will not be forgotten. he was a piece to the puzzle in our hearts and now that piece is gone. R.I.P MICHEAL WE LOVE YOU!
