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.

  13. 213

    Just because he can carry a tune, some of you are forgiving him for the disgusting, horrible acts he committed against fucking children? You people should be ashamed.

    He absolutely disgusts me, and he deserved everything that happened to him.



  14. 214

    Re: General Disarray

    you sound like a miserable person. you ok?



  15. 215

    Maybe it was all the drugs he has been taken all these years…
    also maybe his children will have a chance at a somewhat normal childhood now.
    Never excepted him to live to be much older than he is now,
    Wasn't a fan but 50 is too young to die . . . . LIFESTYLE is all I can attribute this too.



  16. 216

    ayyyyy noooooooooooooooo in Argentina everyone is saying that too!! can't belive it I was waiting for his come back!!! already missing him!!!!



  17. 217

    OMG. This can't be happening. It's MICHAEL JACKSON. He's crazy and we make fun of him, but he's an icon. Seriously?!

    Unbelievable. And so sad. Rest in peace. I really thought that he was immortal or something..



  36. 236

  38. 238

    oh no….this is like elvis dyin



  39. 239

    I CAN'T BELIEVE IT!



  40. 240

    Feeling very nostalgic right now - thinking back to 1982 and rockin out in the car with my Mom and Dad to Thriller - I actually hoped he would be well enough to complete his tour - very sad end to his life. I can only pray his beautiful children are being well taken care and will go on to live a much less secluded life. Micheal despite the unproven allegations did give us great music..I hope angels accept him with open arms he was so fragile towards the end….tears.



  41. 241

    omg..this is so true..cnn is reporting it



  42. 242

    OMG can't believe it, it'a a pity, he was a great performer!!! :o . poor guy, but he was kind of crazy, and sick!!! but im so so sorry.



  43. 243

    its no joke. even fox news is covering this. im not a fan of his, but i do hope he rests in peace finally and that God will give his family and children the strength and courage to stand strong in this dark hour for them



  44. 244

  47. 247

    R.I.P.



  48. 248

    Wow… He may have been weird and most likely a pedophile, but he is still a legend. R.I.P. Michael!



  49. 249

    :O



  50. 250

    RIP Michael Jackson, and Farrah Fawcett, and Ed McMahon. No matter what you think about MJ, that man was an artistic genius. He was a legend. The "Thriller" album was genius.

    RIP all you.

  55. fiona says – reply to this


    255

    Thanks Michael, for a lifetime of music. I grew up as you did, in the 60's. You were a miracle and a gift. I wish you peace and that you feel the love we are sending you. We will treasure your children for you. Farewell!

  67. 267

    LEGEND



  68. 268

    Nice edit you fucking hack. First thing you tell people is to get a refund of their tickets, then you remove it.



  69. 269

    Do you know how insincere you have how shown yourself? Now it's a sad loss, earlier it was a hoax to get out of his concert. Ugh.



  70. 270

    RIP Jacko may you now rest in peace xx



  71. 271

    Re: Carmenx – well said.

    I cannot stand the fact that we live in society where fame, talent, wealth & power EARN a man the RIGHT to ABUSE children.

    It makes me sick.

    You all should grow a fucking pair and have a serious reality check. He should have been locked up & castrated YEARS ago. And those children should NEVER have been handed over into his care.

    They will most likely be fucked up for life and all you guys care about is his fucking talent.



  72. 272

    Re: Carmenx Were you there? Did you see it? Bizarre behavior doesn't equate to abuse, and several times he's been acquitted for lack of evidence, the kids didn't remember - the PARENTS pressed charges for cash. I can't STAND molesters - but I was NOT there, and those kids who were put on display, were done so by their parents and even have said as much recently.



  73. 273

    RIP!!!!



  74. 274

    I CANNNNNOOOOTTTTT BELIEVE IT!! JUST WHEN HE WAS ABOUT TO MAKE HIS COME BACK THIS SUMMER!



  75. 275

    I don't know what to say.
    It's so sad, he had such a hard life…. even when he became a star… he had to struggle with a lot.

    This is a terrible lost.



  76. 276

    HE WILL BE MISSED, I STILL DONT WANT TO BELIEVE IT MYSELF

  77. Keixi says – reply to this


    277

    it's on CNN now. and yahoo. it's true, unfortunately……… :(



  78. 278

    wow, I want a huge fan lately but he is a Icon none the less and he should be respected as a deceased person. RIP and Im sure he is already crossed over wondering why all the fuss. God bless his family and i pray for healing and strength in their time of grief.



  79. 279

    Get rid of your other insensitive post asshole. You need the fucking shit kicked out of you again.



  80. 280

    his body couldn't handle it.. unsurprisingly. everything in moderation is okay, but what he did to himself was to the point of abuse.

    rip king of pop.



  81. 281

    Just because people call him a pedophile, doesn't mean no one cares.
    Goddamn, he was an incredible artist.
    if it's true, rip.



  82. 282

    Perez - you're a mean a-hole. To all of you calling Michael a pedophile. He was never convicted - there was never proof. Those parents of his accusers were using Michael Jackson, then accused him of molesting the kids that they themselves pushed on him - they did it for the MONEY.

    I'm not saying whether Michael Jackson was or was not a pedophile - but common sense and a little thought would dictate that NO he was not- he was a victim of greedy LOSERS who used their small children to get paid.



  83. 283

    What a sad loss to the music industry…wish he could've done that last tour =(



  84. 284

    WHAT!!!?? NOOO!!!! OMG…

    (why the fuckk are people bashing perez? this isn't about perez right now you stupid people!)

    Ferrah and Michael Jackson all in one day!!! omg… that's just too much :(

    R.I.P king of pop! GOSH! sooo sudden!



  85. 285

    AND TO ALL OF YOU HEARTLESS SATANIC EVIL BASTARDS SAYIN HATEFUL THINGS ABOUT MJ ON HERE; BURN IN HELL YOU FUCKING DISGUSTING FOUL PIECE OF SHIT'S. I HOPE YOU ALL DIE HORIFICALLY!!!!!

    292

    I understand why all of you are so angry with Perez (aka Mario) regarding his post that has now been removed. The crazy part about it is - MJ did pull that stunt in 95 and now that it is true at least Perez took the post down. Just like all of us who are stunned by the shocking yet true news that MJ is dead (RIP) - Perez continues daily to post shit about everyone else who we all enjoy reading about or Perez wouldn't be the Perez he is. Everyone talks shit once in a while and we all get it back - If you don't like what Perez posts DONT COME ON HIS SITE. People can be so fuckin retarded - you bash the guy continually but you keeping coming to visit his site and waste your time typing hateful messages - douchebags

    RIP MJ



  97. 297

    cardiac arrest is a heart attack. if he was still in "cardiac arrest" he would have an hours-long heart attack… that doesn't make any sense. i've heart from various media sources that he's passed. get your terms right!



  98. 298

    ?!



  99. 299

    I am completely gutted, close 2 tears, pure legend!!!



  100. 300

    Not to be disrespectful, but those children may be better off, living without all the weirdness, veils, etc.
