Well, Perez is saying he's dead, so it's [I]obviously[/I] true. LA Times has reported he's dead. I'd say that's pretty reliable.

Screw Perez. He should not be allowed to write on anybody's death.

Of all people, Michael Jackson dead is kind of shocking.

This is so sad. Like Dart said, bad things always seem to come in 3's. RIP Ed, Farrah and Michael. You all made your mark on the world and I hope you all find peace now.

They say celebrities die in 3 and this seems to confirm that. RIP Michael. A true legend. :(

While it is sad that he has passed, I saw him as nothing more than a creepy sideshow for the last 15 years. Probably the biggest fall from grace in the history of entertainment. The King of Pop to where he was before he died.

Really B? WIth all things aside the man was good, and a musical genius/legend. I personally just put aside all antics.

He may have had some heavy stuff happen to and around him, but he did still leave his mark on this world as a musical genius.

What a huge loss! :( And on the same day as Farrah Fawcett.

[quote=Dartagnan;88955]Really B? WIth all things aside the man was good, and a musical genius/legend.

I think that is a bit more then I am willing to put aside. When I was young, he was the man. I loved his albums. He was number one in my book and I worshiped him. Now when I look back at it, something feels tainted and wrong.

In fact, I always thought he was falsley aquitted of those charges a few years ago...

As of 11 minutes ago, CNN is also reporting his [URL="http://www.cnn.com/2009/SHOWBIZ/Music/06/25/michael.jackson/index.html"]death[/URL].

IDK all kookiness, antics and accusations aside, he was a musical genius who's impact on America was immeasurable. Whether I think he was guilty or not doesn't matter anymore, I am sad for his family and children.
