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.

    Was just watching some vids on J-5 when Mike was 10..he was the cutest little kid. His purple pimp hat…..I always loved watching him. I admit I did lose interest after his voice changed and the Off the Wall album came out. Then the face changes..ughhh..Mike Mike Mike!!! Ya should have NEVER done it all..but its all over now.it doesnt matter anymore. Your story is truly amazing though!

  9. 1109

    EVERYONE should pressure dumbfuck Perez into making a public statement apologizing for his completely rude and inappropriate post about MJ faking his cardiac arrest.

    Perez, that was really low. Even for you. Get it together homeboy, if you have ANY balls at all, you WILL apologize for your incredible stupidity.



  10. 1110

    R.I.P. Michael!!!! Words cannot describe how I feel all I can say is that my childhood is officially over. Rock the heavens like you did earth. You will be terribly missed, my heart goes out to your loved ones!!!!!!! ='(



  11. 1111

    Re: Katie M – cardiac arrest is worse than a heart attack.



  12. 1112

    It's sad you changed your post when you got the true story. Accusing someone of going into cardiac arrest fake. You are a disgrace to gay people. Your sick……….. RIP Micheal, we'll miss you!



  13. 1113

    This is incredibly sad, he had so much talent :( may his soul rest in peace.

GET UR SHIT 2GETHER PEREZ



  26. 1126

    I thought Michael Jackson was a mentally unstable peadophile with delusional tendencies? It seems he is now being given the Princess Di treatment. Here is someone who even rejected his own racial backgound with surgery. Yes, all you black people out there - he didn't want to be one of you - he wanted to be Elizabeth fucking Taylor. Liz is great but if I were black I'd call that a big, big, enormous horrible insult. At least Barack Obahma said it how it was.



  27. 1127

    I am very sorry for Michael Jackson's family and friends. He made the greatest music in his day. I hope he is somewhere where he no longer feels that he lives in such pain. He was a true enigma. I wonder if he got hooked on all this pain medication because of all the surgeries he had. He started to like the pain pillls. Wouldn't it be strange if he had so many surgeries in order to get all the pills, subconsciously. That doctor was shooting a 100 lb man with enough demerol to kill a horse. I hope they bring him up on charges. He truly sold his soul to the devil. If he had gotten the help he needed he could have lived a long life. I thank his family for doing the best they could to try to get him some help. But you really can't force someone to get help if they don't want to. I hope he rests in peace. OMG the thought of Debbie Rowe getting custody just for the money makes me puke. It would be horrible for them to go have to live with someone they don't know who basically sold them to M.J. What a sad, sad, mess. God Bless the children.
    R.I.P.

    Re: juanita – #1163 Juanita, you're just one more uninformed, ignorant moron who doesn't have any facts. 1) His skin problem was a DISEASE which caused it to be lighter, and it was complicated by his hair catching on fire when filming a PEPSI commercial in which he was badly burned. He tried to even the color out so it wouldn't look so wierd, light and dark both on his face. Secondly, he was never convicted of child molestation. The prosecution in the last case could NEVER EVEN PROVE HE WAS EVER EVEN IN THE VICINITY OF THE BOY ACCUSER, and his mother was all involved in WELFARE FRAUD and other criminal acts. You'd trust the statement of someone like that? Not me. Think about it. NONE of his friends say there is even any consideration that he is a pedophile, and don't you think that there would be someone, out of everyone around him, who would have noticed something sometime? It's all a big farce, and idiots like you are spreading it further. You might consider the commandment: "Thou shalt not bear false witness against another." Since you have no personal knowledge of any incident that you can prove, I suggest you shut your trap, unless of course you want your KARMA to sneak up on you and bite a big hole in your big fat ass!



  29. 1129

    Re: juanita – #1163 by the way, Barack Obama is a fraud. It's about time you woke up.



  30. 1130

    Re: camo_girl – #1160 Nobody called for comments from the peanut gallery. We don't need your stupidity. I'm not even going to respond to the content of your post it's so ignorant.

    It was a month after Michal Jackson song Thriller came out to the world. Living on the Nature Island of the Caribbean Dominica, I was only 10 years old that morning when my younger sister went to the nearby dump to throw garbage when she stumble on this large box . she brought home the box and when we opened it under the supervision of our mother , We found Gold. It was filled with all kinds of Michael Jackson memorabilia from key rings to stickers,posters and books etc.. and the box had only one Michael Jackson Red Jacket. This Red Jacket became a prized possession in this Caribbean Island since no one else had one. We called it the 36 zipper Jacket. In those days people made their own Jacket*copycats and put in their 36 zips but we had an original Michael Jackson Jacket which made us the envy of the town.My mother shared all the Michael Jackson jackpot among us equally but the Jacket we had to take turns and I happen to get the first turn since I had to go to a school fair. My younger sister who found it was enraged and became jealous ,since it was her find. So my mother took the jacket and hide it to halt a war between her kids in her house . Up to this date I never know what become of this Red Michael Jackson original 36 zipper jacket.



  32. 1132

    I take this opportunity to share my deepest sympathy with Michael s Children, Family, Friends and Fans. May his passing remind Politicians and others that we are not here forever and therefore we are to share love , love and more love to each other so that our world will be healed and become a better place. Rest in peace Michael and may the perpetual light of Jehovah be with you.
    In the name of the Father , Son and Spirit Amen.



  33. 1133

    I had a dream last week Tuesday in which i saw a famous man in one of the Caribbean island on a bed. All i was hearing some girls saying he died of a heart attack.When i looked on the bed . The man was on his legs and hands but dead ON A BED WITH RED LOOKING AND BURGUNDY LOOKING SHEET with his eyes open wide. The morning following the dream i called my adopted mother, who is also a psychic to ask her to help me unrevealed my dream. She told me someone famous is indeed going to die but she cannot tell me but its not the man i saw in my dream.TEN DAYS LATER I REALIZED THAT ITS MICHAEL JACKSON.



  34. 1134

    i saw your first post. and you fucking disgust me.



  35. 1135

    IM not saying im happy he died but im not saying im not i just feel bad for his kids one of them dosent even know how is mom is.

    To all of you out there passing judgment; remember, when you point a finger, three fingers point back at you. We are not there to judge (you all did not witness MJ's life personally), that's for God to do. The guy has passed on, and, if you don't have anything kind, good, compassionate or even humane to share; just shut up, and keep your comments to yourselves. My condolences to Katherine, Joseph, Jackie, Reba, Jermaine, Tito, La Tonya, Marlon, Randy and Janet Jackson (and his children). MJ ("King of Pop") RIP and God speed. May the Holy Father (O.O.O)lead you on in your journey beyond. Amen!



  37. 1137

    Wow..thats a shame..despite all the bad publicity he got the fact of the matter is he is a music icon. whether you like him or not he will always be a huge part of the music industry.

    This is so heartbreaking! I cant believe it… I mean Ed, Farrah and MJ in less than 2 days. I couldnt help but tear up, he was my childhood. I always listened to my parents MJ and Aerosmith stuff when I was younger and he was really the best!



  48. 1148

    Re: Dik – 1182 The fact you posted your ignorant hateful uneducated comment a dozen times doesn't make it any more valuable. It's still a piece of ignorant hateful uneducated SHIT.



  49. 1149

    The day he left will be remembered for ages..he was the greatest that has ever lived and will always be the KING OF POP! No one will ever even compare to him.. R.I.P Michael :( (((



  50. 1150

    People Need to understand that he didnt do any harm to his body purposely!They act like he was trying to do drugs or something!If you know how to read you will be informed that he was overdosed on PERSCRIPTION pills and it was the doctors fault for assigning that much medicine to his body.RIP king of POP gone but DEFINATELY never forgotten!he left his mark on music.Its very unfortunate to know that his death was sudden and we all had no precaution but,things happen and this is just one of those examples of life.Let your loved ones know you love them before its too late.Nobody ever seemed to give a fu*k about michael & all of a sudden theyre saying rest in peace !Its just dumb & fake



  51. 1151

    Your career as a famous blogger is dead! First you whine and bitch about getting your ass kicked (wonder why?) and I actually felt bad for you! I don't now, you whiny bitch! Get the facts straight before jumping to stupid ass conclusions! I'm totally with Pete Wentz, I am going to tell all of my friends and associates to stay the f**k away from your site. You're no longer interesting or trustworthy, just annoying and tired you "fugly" pig!

    mario.
    you are little more than a disgusting pathetic bottom feeder.
    making a living off others lives.
    you contribute zero to anything positive.

    you're a complete disgrace… not only as a human being but also a member of the gay community.



  55. 1155

    At least now he is out of his misery…



  56. 1156

    Everyone who is calling MJ strange, he clearly had something psychologically wrong with him which made him that way. He may have gone but his music will live on forever.
    RIP.Michael Jackson.



  57. 1157

    everyone will miss your music!
    rip xx



  58. 1158

    Its sad to know he died



  59. 1159

    man! he was the best tbh PPL missin him but his spirit is in the sky



  60. 1160

    this loss has brought me so much grief because we lost such a great icon. michael jackson will be remembered for his unique talents and amazing vocals and awesome dance moves and for being the first and best black star on mtv. it saddens me to know that we just lost the man who introduced to the world a completely new side of music and style and it also saddens me to know that he was probably the only person on this planet with an actual diverse kind of music and that we just lost one of the most unique and talented stars of our time. but we are going to have to accept the fact that he is not among us anymore and that it was his time to go and that he is in a better place now. may god rest his soul with peace and happiness and i send my prayers out to his family especially his children.

    R.I.P MICHAEL JACKSON, THE FIRST, BEST, AND ONLY KING OF POP.



  61. 1161

    MICHAEL JACKSON'S MUSIC WILL ALWAYS BE REMEMBERED. MAY HE REST IN PEACE.



  62. 1162

    he will live on through his eternal music forever

  70. 1170

    What's up tiny dik?



  71. 1171

    You are a disgusting, pathetic excuse for a human being. You post things you think you are going to get away with and look what kind of reputation it gets you. Nicely done you got your self some page hits, but at what cost? Many couldn't stand you before and it's amazing how many more people can't stand you from this type of publicity. I hope you have a heart attack and someone posts the same shit about you only to have you die, that would be sweet sweet revenge for MJ.



  72. 1172

    We think we know you Michael, but the truth is no one did. The world was tough on you and your sensitive soul just couldn't cope. I hope that you have found peace and may your memory and what you contributed lives on forever.

  76. 1176

    he wasnt a pedofile, he had a horrible child hood and was beaten and became famous at such a young age he never had a childhood. he would have cancer childern over at the ranch and mentally challenged childeren and he was so kind and would take care of them and have them play at the carnival outback for free. and Macully Cullkin stated nothing happened and the charges were dropped. so stfu
