Michael Jackson Dies From Cardiac Arrest
Michael Jackson suffered a major heart attack in Los Angeles, and was prounounced dead at the UCLA Medical Center. He was 50. He is survived by his three children, Michael Joseph Jackson, Jr., Paris Michael Katherine Jackson and Prince “Blanket” Michael Jackson II.
Jackson started his career with the Jackson 5 family group. He then went solo, and was the biggest pop star of the 1980s, with hits such as Beat It, Thriller, and Billie Jean. Jackson had hits later in his career as well, but his psychological status was always questionable. He settled a lawsuit in the 1990s that accused of molestation, and never escaped those charges fully. His worldwide fanbase remains to this day however, and until recently he continued to do concerts overseas.
He may have been crazy, but he ruled the world in the eighties. He was the first billionaire entertainer, and despite is eccentricity, gave millions to charity, including ‘We Are The World’ to benefit hunger in Africa.
His death comes hours after 70s icon Farah Fawcett succumbed to cancer. R.I.P.

Still, the best and most audacious music video of all time, Thriller…
I know this is morbid…but how many stars of the 70s and 80s can we lose today? First Farah Fawcett, now Michael Jackson…who could be next? The Death triangle lives…
We already lost another 70′s and 80′s icon. Ed MacMahon died on Tuesday. The triangle is complete.
Of course, I forgot that that was this week. What a strange triangle.
Whatever it is, it really a BIG lost then.
” it is so sad that the king of pop is already dead
