ajackson_hospital_04_wenn525.jpg

Michael Jackson has passed away, multiple media outlets are reporting.

The singer suffered a cardiac arrest Thursday afternoon and was rushed to the emergency room.

When paramedics arrived at Jackson's home, he had no pulse and they never got a pulse back.

Once at the hospital, the staff tried to resuscitate Jackson but they had no luck.

Such a sad loss, especially for his three young children.

    Re: Emmie859 – Emmie you need to stop replying to that foxy person. He/she's obviously an idiot. You've made some good points on political items before, so don't stoop to this level, you're obviously smarter than foxydarkness.
    Anyway I'm terribly upset Michael Jackson died. I've always been a big fan and have all his cd's. He seemed a very gentle yet traumatized soul. I really hope he's found peace now wherever he is.

    Can somebody wake me up again? This is unbelievable…. I have no other words for the loss of the greatest artist of the world. I believed in him through all the stupid gossip and trials. I will miss him sooo much. His music is his legacy and will be with us forever. I hope Michael has peace now, no more paparazzi and other awful people… I feel so sorry for his family and especially his kids. I do not believe he committed suicide. He would never do that to his children, never. Goodbye Michael, you are gone to soon… Danielle, the Netherlands.



  3. 1003

    emmie why are you so obsessed with fucking small horse animals ?

    im sorry i dont share that obsession nor you mj one
    but liek your obsession for touching kids fucking small equine animals is sick and im pretty sure only you are still doing it i mean dont you watch house gurl were talking donkey pox
    and how in the hell do you get it to stand still

    forget i asked that i dont want to know but i really think you should a stop fucking horses and donkeys and b stop trying to flame me cause all your doing is making it look like you fuck children and animals

    jesus you really are fucked in the head arent you
    i can see why you live on this site post thousands of times and have no life

    you must smell like ass
    i mean beastiality
    really
    ewww

  4. Kate says – reply to this


    1004

    Wow, Perez… think before posting. Your first post, yikes. Who in their right mind would fake a death to get out of a series of concerts… a celebrity?! I think not. I thought a knock to the head would do you some good. Obviously not!



  5. 1005

    I never understood this man.. BUT REST IN PEACE!



  6. 1006

    Re: ichleibenewyork – nope he was killed in a tragic donkey show accident if you want to know what a donkey show is ask emmie859 she keeps asking me if ive done one but as i can only guess it means fucking horses i had to say no im not really sure of the logistics but emmie has killed mj and somehow apprently a donkey was involved
    and btw emmie why are u so obsessed with donkey shows i really dont get that or know like how you do it having never had the inclanation to fuck an equine
    but im sure you could tell us
    i sadly cant help you in this area
    personally i honestly believe you should love you pets in a platonic way
    i can however suggest a decent therapist
    but i doubt you could afford her

    howEVER if you get a donkey show your so obsessed with together i bet you could make the money i mean someone has to want to see a donkey being sucked off by a ugly woman if for nothing else then entertainment value



  7. 1007

    I'm devastated….He was the only and eternal Pop king…we'll all miss you MJ!



  8. 1008

    This is just as shocking as when Elvis Presley died. I'll never forget that day either. I was at my first concert, Bob Seger at Pine Knob Music Theater in Michigan. He dedicated that concert to Elvis. Tonight my 23 year old son sent me a text message that Michael Jackson died. I couldn't believe my eyes. RIP Michael Jackson, you were a musical genius as well as a dance genius. TWO icons in one day, 3 in one week!! That's just too much to lose. RIP y'all…..loved ALL of you!



  9. 1009

    Re: FoxyDarkness – there you go projecting again. It was your ex-husband who told me that you said once you had a donkey you could never go back. So he left. Enjoy!



  10. 1010

    Im watching it on the news in England right now, what will happen to his concert?? Do you think it was cancelled because of his illness getting worse??? R.I.P xx



  11. 1011

    RIP Michael … a one of a kind talent and a legend



  12. 1012

  13. 1013

    Re: Romy23 – #1047 Yeah, you're right. I think she's the most hateful loser I've seen on this board, that that takes a lot! Anyway, I agree about Michael. He gave all of us so much….and now he is finally at peace.



  14. 1014

    So soso so so sad :'(



  15. 1015

    Perez, you are a pimple on the butt of humanity.

    a sense of reality and HUMOR
    :D



  20. 1020

    Perez, you are a whiny pathetic little queen. Your bleating about the BEP affair was self-serving and pathetic after you all but begged to be bitch-slapped. You have applauded others for lashing out previously but when Perez's face is the target it is suddenly bad? Hypocrite. Your post aboout MJ that you rushed to delete as it displayed your crassness all too well was just another example of what a sad case you have become… maybe you should doodle semen on your own face for a change. Cretin.



  21. 1021

    Re: mandastarlee – You can't just be in cardiac arrest -.-
    Cardiac arrest is when the heart stops beating, which means you're dead if you don't get help.



  22. 1022

    rip to jacko, although he has made mistakes in the past, he was still a great preformer, a forefront of dance and pop, a true legend, and will be sorely missed.



  23. 1023

    rip michael. you will always be in our hearts!!



  24. 1024

    Re: mandastarlee – um cardiac arrest means your heart stops beating. its pretty hard to come out of that.



  25. 1025

    Re: FoxyDarkness

    BITCH SIT THE FUCK DOWN SOMEWHERE…HE WAS WRONG AND OUT OF LINE FOR THAT ORIGINAL COMMENT, SO THE KIDS ARE LIGHTING A FIRE UNDER HIM…YOU NEED TO GET YOUR FINGER OUT OF PEREZ' ASS AND WIPE THAT SHIT YOU'RE TALKING UNDER YOUR NOSE..GOODNIGHT



  26. 1026

    FoxyDarkness - WTF are you smoking/swallowing/mainlining/snorting? You treat this comments section like your own personal chat room, you sneer and yammer on and make no fucking sense whatsoever. In other words - you sound like Perez. I should say Mario - as there in no point in him hiding behind that lame fake twinkly name anymore.

    RIP MJ. You ended up a tragic mess…. but before that, there was magic.



  27. 1027

    i love your site, but maybe your comments about this all being a ploy for media attention should clue you in. maybe there are reasons why you got punched. i like you, but you need to be ready to take your hits when they are warranted. maybe its time to really think about things, and not just fame. think about this, honestly. low blow. one of many, in fact.



  28. 1028

    im so glad you could get one final shot in before he died
    class act perez



  29. 1029

    R.I.P. You're Always staying THE KING OF POP!



  30. 1030

    Am still numbed…
    RIP MJ :'(

    Re: RETRO PHYSICAL – 1074 couldn't have said it better….

    Re: phiggle – #1075 *5 :-)



  33. 1033

    RIP. One of the best performers in the world.



  34. 1034

    Poor Wacko. I am wondering what life has for his kids. What a story. I can see how they write a tell all books in a couple of years. It would be entitled "Dangling from a balcony" for Blanket.



  35. 1035

    Thank you Michael for all the wonderful music and entertainment you gave us. Blessings on you. R.I.P.



  36. 1036

    Rest in peace, Michael.
    You'll be remembered forever!!



  37. 1037

    It was said Michael would go days at a time without talking to anyone but children. Now really, is that so surprising? First he was a child trapped in an adult body. He never lived out a childhood for himself. But then also, he got to see the WORST in adult human nature with all the vultures circling him constantly. Now if you just take the example of a lot of the scum that post on this board, is it any surprise that he would choose the innocence of a child over the visciousness and vindictive manipulations of an adult? Think about it.



  38. 1038

    So, so sad to hear this :(

    May you rest in peace, Michael.



  39. 1039

    A legend dies.. so sad.. ! he will be missed !



  40. 1040

    Perez, you are disgusting. After all you've been through the last couple of days, one should actually believe that you've learned a little lesson on respect, dignity, humility and decency - and yet you reached an all time low with your comments on Michael Jackson being rushed to the hospital. You are a disgraceful, spineless Parasite.

    Michael Jackson was one of the greats - exceptionally gifted, a musical genius. Michael, regardless of your personal tragedies, may you find the peace in heaven you never recieved here on earth. You will be deeply missed, but never forgotten.



  41. 1041

    PEREZ, I can't believe what you wrote in your first post about Michaels death. :-(
    I hate you! WHO are you to write something like that??????????
    I really hope your celebrity "Friends" will take the consequences…ASSH*LE! :-( :-( :-( :-( :-( :-( :-( :-( :-( :-( :-( :-(



  42. 1042

    OK, that' it. This is thepage that announed the death of Michael Jackson. And Foxy and Emmie are ruining that. Foxy, stop baiting, and Emmie stop retaliating. Sure, Michael wasn't the first influential, and he won't be the last. Obama wasn't the first president, Diana wasn't the first Princess, and Elvis wasn't the first singer. But they were all influential. So just respect the sanctity of life and death, and if you must have a catfight, do it somewhere else.



  43. 1043

    it shows one can't abuse one's body for so many years with operations and shit and get away with it, unless he had cancer or something and no one knew, in which case RIP and sorry for his children that are not father AND mother-less plus they are all called Michael!!!



  44. 1044

    R.I.P Michael Jackson. You are a true Legend. You changed the world we live in for the better and every single soul on this earth has you to thank in some way or another. Hopefully everyone remembers you this way and for your music rather than the rumours and mainly false accusations. Jealousy is a curse. We'll miss you mate. Xo



  45. 1045

    i just feel for his kids tbh!but all i can say is r.i.p michael jackson x



  46. 1046

    Holy shit!! :O



  47. 1047

    terrible!!!! shocked still….



  48. 1048

    Perez you're an fucking arsehole! You went and joked about MJ being Ill now you don't even have the nerve to apologise. MJ will be missed by many, you on the other hand won't!



  49. 1049

    I HATE YOU!



  50. 1050

  53. 1053

    he simply could not enter the world of the adults and couldn`t survive their world… R.I.P. Michael, we (who keep the child alive in ourselves) will love you forever! There is no greater than you! =(((((

  54. isita says – reply to this


    1054

    SO SAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!



  55. 1055

    SO WHAT if Perez made a comment about him faking it.
    It wasnt CONFIRMED. If it was confirmed and he said that SURE. You're all making a big deal out of nothing, but if he came through and THEN pushed back his dates some people would think 'hmm maybe.' So stop giving him a hard time.
    He edited his post in due course when he heard the news had changed didnt he?
    Thats what counts.

    Now instead of slating Perez, how about we all think of MJ.

    RIP MICHAEL JACKSON.

    Ignore the idiots who are too busy complain at Perez.



  56. 1056

    NO!!! NO!!!
    i grew up hearing his name!!
    now…
    now,he's actually gone!?
    no!!! not real!!!
    just a bad terrible nightmare!!!!
    T_T



  57. 1057

    There is NO WAY I am going to mourn this creepy old pedo. All it means is the little boys of the world can sleep easier. Just cause a jury acquitted him is no proof he was innocent. The payoffs and his own behaviour condemn him. Tell me how many of you would have left him alone with your kids? Mario shouldn't have to apologize for suggesting the initial reports of cardiac arrest were a ploy to get out of the 02 concerts. I was thinking it as I'm sure a lot of you crying for pedo face now, were.



  58. 1058

    "Such a sad loss, especially for his three young children"
    I was more worried about them while he was ALIVE!



  59. 1059

    The World has lost a true icon. :(
    .
    .
    R.I.P. Michael…



  60. 1060

    r.i.p.Michael!I was extremely shocked when I heard about his death this morning(here in Greece we found out about it in the morning.we have a 7 hour difference with the U.S.).I thought it was a joke.ok we all know he WASN'T A SAINT,yes he was very weird but for those of us who were born between the '70s and the '80 (I am 29 yrs old),he showed and defined the way how pop music should be.the greatest male artist.I hope he's with God now.



  61. 1061

    Re: General Disarray – No one cares? Are you fucking real?! The whole world is in shock! What you meant to say was, no one would care if someone killed Perez, but this is MJ!!



  62. 1062

    This is the saddest thing ever, music will never be the same. he was and always will be , the king of pop. *shocked* R.I.P Michael T_T



  63. 1063

    funny, you were saying in a previous post how it was a stunt, and now your mourning his death. ridiculous.
    rip mj, you will be sorley missed!



  64. 1064

    is he trying to avoid his come back? can't believe that that's true.. i don't like him that much, but it would be very sad..



  65. 1065


  66. 1066

    i can't believe mj passed away, i am a little heartbroken…and perez shame on you for originally claiming that mj faked his own death for the sake of ticket sales. when the whole thing went down with u being physically assaulted in canada i was on ur side, but now i think that u deserved that punch in the face.



  67. 1067

    r.i.p. …



  68. 1068

    Omg, I love Mj.. his death was so sudden i can't believe hes dead.. impossible! King of Pop.. no… LEGEND will live on forever!!!!!!!
    xxx
    RIP



  69. 1069

    wow from wacko to michael jackson everyone knows what you did



  70. 1070

    I couldn't believe it when I first heard the sad news….I think I must have been in shock because it wasn't until I heard his songs on the radio that it really hit me.
    I don't care what anyone thinks about his own personal choices but he was an amazing performer, an artist that no-one will ever be able to match.
    R.I.P.



  71. 1071

    Re: aleciababy – He might not have done anything lately, but have you suffered some sort of memory loss where all the great work he has done?? So insensitive…



  72. 1072

    Farrah & Michael in 1 day; such an awful day!



  73. 1073

    Re: dutchy – Yes well done you're so clever people die but this is an iconic figure who has passed. I know its sad when anyone dies but I wasn't a big fan but even I'm respectful about this event.
    There are gonna be a lot of fans across the world that will be devestated by this…don't be so insensitive.



  74. 1074

    Re: FugsMagee – You're quick to speak ill of the dead but forget so easily how much bullshit the media feeds us. He was proved innocent in court of law. Was he odd, quirky, wierd??? Yes…Was he a paedo??? No



  75. 1075

    R.I.P. Michael Jackson… The king is dead - how sad :'(



  76. 1076

    Such brilliance! It still has not hit me yet. I hope that he passed on his beautiful talent to his children. Michael's grandfather, Prince, also was gifted with a wonderful voice.



  77. 1077

    Re: General Disarray – You are such a disgrace. Have some compassion, he had 3 children asshole.

    There will never be another like him, he will be missed!!
    RIP Michael Jackson



  81. 1081

    i am deeply saddend and crying rite now
    i love michael jackson he is my idol and will have a special place for him in my heart
    michael u are gone to soon i love ya and pay my respects to the family andi love him
    rest in peace mike love u lots



  82. 1082

    I can only imagine what he looks like without that ridiculous wig and makeup. I shudder to think.



  83. 1083

    i was @ work and i heard that he was in the hospital, 10 minutes later my co-worker comes out telling us all he had died! i cried and then we had a big thunderstorm, after 15-20 minutes of hard rain, there was sun in the clouds, i'm thinking that was god's good-bye. so sad.



  84. 1084

    Honestly.
    This is a surprising and unexpected loss.
    But everyone is over-reacting to the post Perez made before.
    Um, hello? Pretty sure he's not the only one who thought that. I was at a relative's house watching CNN about it, and my cousin's boyfriend walked in the room, looked at the TV and literally said, "What if he's only faking to get out all his debt and crap?" And my mom agreed with him after thinking for a while.
    And then Perez makes a comment about how he previously pulled a stunt to get out of performing.
    Obviously, we were wrong, but there must be a reason as to why at least 3 people believe that MJ would have done something as far as to fake his own death.
    RIP Farrah&MJ
    Oh, and everyone who's only on here to slam Perez- Leave and get a life.



  85. 1085

    Re: Michael Jackson's DEAD finally! #1130

    What kind of f-ing SICK PARENTS teach their kids to celebrate death? Wow, I thought that was terrorists. Well, now we have sick Americans teaching their kids the same thing. Even though the prosecution in the court case could not place Jackson with the kid AT ANY TIME OR PLACE, and the mother was involved in all kinds of WELFARE FRAUD for starters, people are still convicting them in their kangaroo courts. But to teach them to celebrate premature death is REALLY SICK. THIS is CHILD ABUSE.

    The stupid kid's comment that Michael Jackson changed his skin color just goes to show how IGNORANT her parents are that they don't even have a clue it's a skin disease that causes that in Michael. Damn, these people are ignorant and hateful. And they're raising more just like them. Now THAT'S THE REAL PROBLEM WITH AMERICA.



  86. 1086

    Hi Perez,

    I was wondering why you're such a twat? Can you do me a favor and go fuck yourself, you baby bitch? Are all the tears out yet? How's the eye?



  87. 1087

    Jesus Perez….I can't believe I thought you were funny. We all saw that earlier post you made about how he was faking it. He is dead! Those comments you made were insensitive and inappropriate. You should feel horrible. You are a heartless monster. I am never coming to this website again.

    RIP Michael



  88. 1088

    Hey MARIO, you've been TOPPED IN THE DISGUST category by post 1130.



  89. 1089

    R.I.P you will be greatly missed all around the world.

  95. 1095

    SOME PEOPLE ARE SO QUICK TO SAY THE NASTIEST OF THINGS ABOUT MICHAEL… NONE OF YOU TRULY KNOW ANYTHING OF HIS PERSONAL LIFE.. PEOPLE HAVE DONE NOTHING BUT POINTED THEIR FINGERS AND LAUGHED, LIKE HE WAS A CHARACTER OF A MINSTREL SHOW… AND WAITED FOR HIM TO FAIL.. NOW THAT HE IS DEAD THE WORLD "CRIES"… NO ONE CAN EVER MOVE PEOPLE (ALL PEOPLE) THE WAY HE MOVED SOME OF OUR HEARTS..WE ZONED OUT TO MICHAEL AND IT INSPIRED US TO DO SOMETHING GREAT.. THERE WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER MJ.. THIS WILL FOREVER BE A SAD DAY

    Re: Emmie859 – You're one of the craziest, deluded bitches I've seen comment on this site!! Go get therapy immediately!! I fear you may be following in MJ's footsteps!!



  100. 1100

    Perez cree que nadie vió su post anterior, esta equivocado, muchos tuvimos la oportunidad de leerlo y ver lo IRRESPETUOSO que es. Como se atreve a hacerse la víctima con lo que le pasó en Canadá, cuando el hace mucho mas daño hablando mierdas de los demás.
    Lo que le pasó lo tiene bien merecido, ya dice el dicho: EL QUE A HIERRO MATA A HIERRO MUERE.
