Yeah a little.

Although not a big fan it still saddens me as he was such an international icon.

Yeah, musically speaking, he WAS the 80's.

This legal stuff over the past 2 decades has really tarnished his legacy unfortunately.

Cardiac Arrest is different than a heart attack.

But yeah he's dead according to TMZ.


RIP
God bless and good night!

Honestly I feel bad for Michael Jackson. Obviously he was screwed in the head at an early age and I'm pretty sure he was probably sexually abused as a child. His behavior was so odd, and though unacceptable I do think he lived a very tragic life. His musical legacy is right up there with the all time greats. They played PYT at the Sox game last weekend while I was there and it still totally gets you going.

Huge fan.  One of the people who legitimately believed he was strange, but a victim of the media.  If you do any research at all into any of those allegations you find out how ridiculously absurd they were... on both instances.  But im not in the mood to argue with anyone about it.    

My uncle was his publicist for years and my cousin was close with him when she was a teenager in the mid 80s.   She's devastated... nobody in his inner circle ever had anything negative to say about him.

I'm pretty disappointed.  I was really looking forward to his comeback.  He had been rehearsing 4 hours a day for this string of London concerts.  I think it's a bigger disappointment than the media is going to present it.  The guy has been an icon since he was 11.

I agree. He could be, but CNN has not reported yet. Is TMZ that credible?
