Michael Jackson suffers cardiac arrest - Dead at the age of 50

[HotHotHeat]

It's an embarrassment to society that Madonna is up there with those greats.

[BlackArcher101]

Most importantly... how does Nickelback compare?

Does anybody know what station the Michael Jackson memorial service will be played on?

They've asked my boy to perform so I can't miss it...

[FlamesKickAss]

muchmusic and ctv? i thought thats what i heard. much for sure though

[bluejays]

I saw this on Yahoo today. Whether or not you're a believer in this stuff, I thought this video was interesting considering it was a CNN broadcast.

I'd believe it if it was actually on cnn.com. But clearly someone already edited it to add music and it's on youtube... wouldn't be hard to add the "ghost".

I believe Michael Jacksons friends. Donald Trump continually said on Larry King that Michael Jackson was not and could not be a child molester. All of his very close friends said this. I'm sure they knew him better than the media. It was interesting hearing Donald talk about how Michael lived next to him at Trump tower for quite a while and how was a very smart businessman.

Cochran basically told him he better not settle out of court for that second trial. I media member from CBS who sat in on the 2nd trial said it was such a joke and the prosecution has no case whatsoever if you were there everyday.

I don't know. If I was that big of a star and some kid threw those charges at me, would I want a long OJ like trial that would hurt my career even more than it would be already? All of his advisors told him to settle as quick as he could or his career could be all over.

Michael brought it upon himself though. No normal adult would bring kids over like that if they weren't their own or their families. very Naive and dumb. Seemed like he just lived ina fantasy world.

If he was guilty, those parents of the kid are sick to settle out of court. I'd take the guy to trial first.

Wow, MJ is dead. This is the first I've heard about it...

I am shocked that every channel isn't reporting it.

[Methanolic]

IMO, If you are innocent, you spend every dime you have, for as long as it takes, untill you are proven innocent in a court of law.

settling out of court makes you appear guilty whether you are not!

[I_am_Beast]

check ebay for tix to the memorial... $100,000.00 per tix bid pricing..not buy it now

Gene Simmons said the same thing.

Bottom line to me is beyond the child molestation charges. This guy mutilated his body, hung a baby over a third floor balcony and was a junkie. This out pouring of grief and all of these worshipful tones being thrown at him are really misplaced. Especially when a genuinely nice person like Farrah Fawcet died a terrible death, and Jackson basically committed suicide by taking surgical level anesthetics. All of these people that are throwing these little salutes to him, are no better then Jackson's father who's first words about his sons death were after he talked about his new record label. Even in death he's got people riding his coat tails.

Michael Jackson is a terrible cautionary tale and should be bought up as an object lesson of pity to every new artist signed to a record company about what not to do.

I find the fact that we're willing to forgive this guy and worship him based on his music to be in the simplest terms disturbing.

The sooner that this guy is tossed into the ground and buried and forgotten about the better. I find this whole circus/freak show event to be silly and stupid.

Quite amazing when you compare him to other famous artists.

He was a freak show but nobody should argue he was a genius and a talent that likely wont be seen ever again, unfortunately it came at a price.

Anybody notice that MJ's kids look nothing like their father MJ? I am certainly not the first person to notice this. This story has been in the news (US magazine and others). http://www.usmagazine.com/news/micha...f-kids-2009306

Everything about how MJ became a father is clouded in secrecy and signed legal documents and agreements.

If it can be proved that some or all of his children are in fact not his children, will this affect the distribution of his estate?

Does pretending that they are your kids make them your kids (even after 11-12 years)?
If they aren't his children do they have a claim on his estate?

[Byrns]

They're his kids, biological or not.

If they are not his biological kids, would he not have had to adopt them to make them his legal children?

Is not adoption a public process and records on who is doing the adoption, open to the public?

I don't recall any stories in the news about MJ applying to adopt some babies.

[Byrns]

Sounds like a job for Alex Jones.

If they are adopted, it shouldn't be anyone's business but that of the family. I'd be shocked if he could pull it off without anyone knowing, but if he did, that would be good I think.... especially if he didn't want the kids to know.

I actually think the youngest does look a little like him.

Well the same article says that they are not Rowe's kids either, so I guess the poor kid had neither a mother nor a father.
