Is there a confirmed report that he has passed away?

I'm watching CNN and see no such report at this point.

Prayers for Michael Jackson.

Say what you want about his latter troubles, but Off the Wall and Thriller were killer, killer albums. Guy was a giant. RIP Michael.

[ginobili's bald spot]

RIP king of pedos

[KSeal]

I still don't think he's dead. It would be everywhere, it's nowhere, it just says he's in the hospital.

[KSeal]

I know but only TMZ has that, every other news station says he's just in the hospital. I'll take CNN's word over TMZ's.

[sonic21]

TMZ is full of bull**** though....

Let's hope it he's still alive

yea thats the only one ive seen too is on TMZ

[DeadlyDynasty]

He's most likely dead...even if they do have a pulse back, he's probably brain dead and will need a ventilator for the rest of his life. He's gone. RIP. You have such a small window from down-time to paramedic care

[iggypop123]

www.tmz.com

says he is dead

those guys have direct sources in the hospital thats why they are the only ones to report it. local news is depending on meh sources

LA Times. (Time of day PST)

Michael Jackson is in a coma [Updated] (http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/lanow/2009/06/pop-star-michael-jackson-was-rushed-to-a-hospital-this-afternoon-by-los-angeles-fire-department-paramedics--capt-steve-ruda.html)

[Updated at 2:46 p.m.: Pop star Michael Jackson is in a coma and his family is arriving at his bedside, a law enforcement source told The Times.

Jackson was rushed to Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center this afternoon by Los Angeles Fire Department paramedics.

Fire Capt. Steve Ruda said paramedics responded to a call at Jackson's home at 12:26 p.m. He was not breathing when they arrived. The paramedics performed cardiopulmonary resuscitation and took him to the hospital, Ruda told The Times.]

[Updated at 2:12 p.m.: Paramedics were called to a home in the 100 block of Carolwood Drive off Sunset Boulevard. Jackson rented the Bel-Air home for $100,000 a month. It was described as a French chateau estate built in 2002 with seven bedrooms, 13 bathrooms, 12 fireplaces and a theater.

The home is about 2 1/2 miles, about a six-minute drive, from UCLA Medical Center. An earlier version of this post incorrectly described the time to travel between the home and hospital as two minutes.]

The news comes as Jackson, 50, was attempting a comeback after years of tabloid headlines, most notably his trial and acquittal on child molestation charges.

In May, The Times reported that Jackson had rented the Bel Air residence and was rehearsing for a series of 50 sold-out shows in London's O2 Arena. Jackson had won the backing of two billionaires to get the so-called "King of Pop" back on stage.

His backers envision the shows at AEG's O2 as an audition for a career rebirth that could ultimately encompass a three-year world tour, a new album, movies, a Graceland-like museum, musical revues in Las Vegas and Macau, and even a "Thriller" casino. Such a rebound could wipe out Jackson's massive debt.

No need to be an asshole...the guy just died...let him rest in peace.

Agreed. Let him rest in peace the same way his death lets little boys sleep in peace.

[timtonymanu]

Well Farrah Fawcett died for sure so R.I.P.

not sure about Jackson.

[iggypop123]

well the stories are flip flopping from sources . this should help pass time till draft. im hearing heli's pass by my place going to UCLA

[Basketballgirl25]

well if he really is died, must be a really sad day for Brook Lopez, Vince Carter and Ryan Anderson and traded and Michael Jackson dies

[lil_penny]

R.I.p. to the thriller

[Muser]

well if he really is died, must be a really sad day for Brook Lopez, Vince Carter and Ryan Anderson and traded and Michael Jackson dies


What?

[duncan228]

LA Times now updating that he has died.

[Mugen]

i think he's most likely brain dead and they are just waiting for all the family to get there before they pull the plug.

[Def Rowe]

Just incredible. Very sad news.

[Muser]

[DeadlyDynasty]

yup...he was down too long

[iggypop123]

la times-dead cnn- coma. either way is just sources mixed up. he looks done

[Mugen]

Damn, first Farrah Fawcet, now the King of Pop. Condolences to his loved ones.

sad day indeed man, hopefully the draft cheers me up a little.

[IronMexican]

It's official. RIP

[iggypop123]

la times, cbs news. its only a matter of time until there is an official press conference

[Muser]

My cousin was gonna go to his comeback tour, man this sucks.

[HarlemHeat37]

Only in our society do we celebrate a man that molests children..

[DeadlyDynasty]

i think they do that in Thailand too

[JamStone]

Chamon, chamon. I don't wanna be startin something, but I had to look at the man in the mirror. He told me to beat it. You know I'm bad. You know it.

[Mugen]

Only in our society do we celebrate a man that molests children..

true.

but i like to remember mike as a great entertainer that brought happiness to a lot of people.

not the guy who molested kids, whose parents pretty much whored them out to him to try and make money.

[SPURSGOAT]

damn! First Farrah Fawcett and now this.... very sad day indeed... RIP! :depressed

[kcplayboi_26]

yup its official

[Muser]

whose parents pretty much whored them out to him to try and make money.

Agreed, whichever way you look at it being a part of the most famous group at the time at such a low age is gonna mess you up.

[DeadlyDynasty]

I'm guessing he died from one of the two conditions:
1. Opiate overdose
2. PE


i got $20 on one of those

[weebo]

and jermaine is still going strong...:depressed

Maybe he stayed out in the sun too long and melted.

Very sad day.

RIP Michael Jackson

you are the king of pop!

[Mugen]

why couldn't it have been tito?


damn.

[IronMexican]

This is bigger than Kobain and possibly Lennon.

[LnGrrrR]

Wow. Sucks to go like that.

[loveforthegame]

Sad news. Wow.

[Mugen]

This is bigger than Kobain and possibly Lennon.

Cobain probably, but not Lennon. Lennon was real tragic.

shits crazy in LA right now.

[Muser]

Probably biggest since Elvis.

[redzero]

I guess his heart didn't beat it.

[Muser]

Only a matter of time before we get a MJ troll..

[BRHornet45]

R.I.P. .... say what you want about him, but he was arguably the most famous man in the world.

[Cry Havoc]

Cobain probably, but not Lennon. Lennon was real tragic.

shits crazy in LA right now.

Bigger than either. Jackson is the single most popular entertainer since Elvis.

[Cry Havoc]

Only a matter of time before we get a MJ troll..

Perhaps I should take it just to stop some idiot from doing it. Hmmm....

[Gino]

Unbelievable.

I will do the moonwalk in his honor.

For those too young to remember the 80s, he was like Michael Jordan, Barrack Obama and Usher combined. Thats how big he was.

Even that stupid Rockwell song "Somebody's watching me" that they play now on that geico commercial made it to number one simply because he did the backup vocals.

[HarlemHeat37]

Did anybody else just hear that?..

giant sighs of relief from millions of young boys around the world..

he already looks like a corpse anyways, so the decomposition shouldn't be too bad..

[Cry Havoc]

No, but I heard boo's from the "obvious joke here" section.

LOL it was very obvious..I hadn't seen one yet though..

[HarlemHeat37]

respecting the dead is very overrated..

I can respect and honor a good person, but not a guy that inappropriately touches young boys and gets away with it due to his talent and status..

[Spursfan092120]

Probably biggest since Elvis.
what he said.

[Spursfan092120]

I have a lot of respect for you, man...but there's no proof anywhere that he did this. Just the words coming from kids parents. Why are we guilty till proven innocent?

[Spursfan092120]

"But the guilty person is only one of the targets of punishment. For punishment is directed above all at others, at all the potentially guilty."

[dirk4mvp]

I don't want to hear any shit from HarlemHeat about Kobe being a rapist since he wasn't found guilty.

[z0sa]

this is definitely bigger than cobain, but I'd beg to differ about Lennon. Elvis is probably the biggest music celebrity death of all time, so ..

Stupid idiot!

Honestly, I was never a fan of him (simply not my music), but if someones dies there is no need to neglect it or to make jokes about it.

R.I.P.

[Sportstudi]

Well, I would also throw Freddie Mercury in there. He was also a true great.

[BlackSwordsMan]

how long until shitty LA fans riot and destroy cop cars?

[ezau]

I can't believe it. I grew up listening and watching his videos. This is just too soon

[ezau]

I guess his heart didn't beat it.

Hahahaha. I'm not supposed to laugh but damn that was witty

[daslicer]

What can I say the man was a icon, a great innovator. I respect his greatness and all of great music he created for that I remember him. Hell I'm 25 and the first music video I saw was when I was 4 which he was in.

[supermana]

Fuck the OP and RIP the king of pop

[Indazone]

I will always remember the Thriller Video when he turned into a warewolf. It was on spring break and the big screen was playing the first worldwide premier. Everyone in the bar stopped. Guys stopped hitting up chicks, chicks stopped chatting up dudes. Everyone just stopped and watched Michael Jackson do Thriller.

On the way to the hospital Michael Jackson's last words were, "Take me to the children's hospital."

I remember at my mom's wedding doing MJ moves, at the age of six or so. The guy was and will always be a legend.

If the harrowing and deeply disturbing allegations in these documents are true, Jackson is a textbook pedophile, a 46-year-old predator who plied children with wine, vodka, tequila, Jim Beam whiskey, and Bacardi rum. A man who gave boys nicknames like Doo Doo Head and Blowhole and then quizzed them about whether they masturbated and if "white stuff" came out. A man who conducted drinking games with minors and surfed porn with them on a laptop in his Neverland Ranch bedroom, noting that if anyone asked what they were looking at, the kids should just say they were watching "The Simpsons." A man who frequently talked sex with his little companions and explained that "boys have to masturbate or they go crazy." A man who told one pajama-clad boy that he wanted to show him how to "jack off." When the tipsy child declined the demonstration, Jackson announced, "I'll do it for you," and buried his hand in the boy's Hanes briefs, size small. And a man who emphasized to his little friends that these activities were "their little secret" and should not be disclosed to anyone, even if a gun was at their head.

Ya, RIP you fucking ass nozzle. I hope Satan is ramming his pitchfork right in the middle of your taint -- you know, one tine rupturing your choad, one 6 inches up your ass, and the other slashing your worthless sack open.

Gotta love stupid fucking mormons! Like the South Park song, "Joseph smith dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb." The fact that you actually believe that stupid mormon bullshit automatically makes you worthless. Maybe in your "pre-existance"(stupid mormon belief) you were worth something. Maybe it's your alternate heaven or alternate god you stupid fucking mormon douche.
