Michael Jackson dead at 50
<< Back
King of Pop no more Jun 26, 2009 at 08:29
Fucking terrible news! According to reports the controversial superstar, Michael Jackson has died at age 50 after a heart attack which saw him rushed to the UCLA Medical Center.

Granted the man was a massive nutcase and had obviously had some pretty serious issues but no one can dispute the fact that the he was an absolute musical genius. Having sold up to 750 million records and the winner of 13 Grammys he will always be known as a legend of the dancefloor and one of the most popular stars the world has ever known (and a little bit of a weirdo who like the kiddies a little too much).

He was about to embark on a massive comeback tour with 50 sold-out shows in London starting this July which makes me think this could be either be terrible news or a very clever publicity stunt. If you are actually dead, R.I.P MJ we'll try and remember you as your were in the Thriller days (before it all went pear-shaped).

Awww, such a downer of a morning, Farrah Fawcett is gone too :( Lame start to the day. - Jake OXOX
True Respect
Farrrah! no!
True Respect
Sad sad day...don't matter if you're black or white!
True Respect
I think i might actually be in shock.
False Respect
Me too. This is sad. And kind of strange.
False Respect
eh...
True Respect
the moon walk, the glove... fuck!
True Respect
Yeah, I am pretty whatever on this to be honest. He died many years ago for me. I do immensely respect him for all the early years, true innovator, and will always be the King of Pop.
True Respect
I used to hang out for his film clips aka motion pictures.
True Advanced Member
Who's going to look after his originally named children, Michael Joseph Jackson, Jr., Paris Michael Katherine Jackson and Prince "Blanket" Michael Jackson II???
True Respect
Jamie, at first I thought your were a sick prick but then again he was about to embark on a world tour!!
True Respect
I can assure you, I am not the sick one here...
False Respect
Nobody's denying that he was a sicky-loco troubled man, but he was a musical genius. PS. Catchyleo, I don't think he fathered those kids. Maybe they'll be returned to their parents?
True Respect
that's fucked jd...
False Respect
Um, too soon much?
True Advanced Member
all this and Tom & Nicole have just split!
False Respect
OMG OMG OMG OMG! oh... sorry, i thought i was n the New Weekly site.
True Respect
Like Elvis and 2 pac Jamie.
True Respect
I have retracted my cmment after watching a video of his greatness again.
True Advanced Member
This is so fucked up! NJ as if every website in the world (not just gossip sites) isn't reporting on this? Are you alright?
False Advanced Member
Thankyou for everything Michael. A world that took too much from a man that gave everything. everything.
True Senior Member
What a life. theres plenty of controversy if you for or against him, but everyone can agree his music will always make us bust a move.
True Senior Member
He was my music Idol when I was 9. He made an awesome contribution to modern music. Freaky deaky's need love too.
False Respect
MB? me? fine thank you. and just to let you know, i was referring to Jimbob's comment. you know the one, the one directly before mine.
True Advanced Member
Oh of course, you were trying to ride the coat tails of JIMBOB's joke.
False Respect
Joke? "It is being reported in the US that Katie Holmes is seeking a trial separation from her husband"
True Advanced Member
Yeah, would have thought since he said "Tom and Nicole" that it was a joke but you were clearly pretty concerned and got Googling!
True Respect
ryz
Were you expecting him to release a great album or be a good father to his children?
False Respect
my mistake. P.S why did Michael Jackson like Boyz-2-Men? He thought it was a delivery service.
True Respect
Don't anybody dare say too soon to NJ's joke. It doesn't refer to him dying, it refers to his past. Fair play. Now, for example, if someone was to say: It don't matter if you're black ro white now that you're brown bread, THAT would be too soon.
True Respect
Funny. Funny shit.
False Respect
I just heard on the radio that there going to melt him down and turn him onto a Playstation so kids can still play with him.
True Respect
Oh no you dit-nt
True Respect
Just give him straight to the wax museum.
True Senior Member
They are still trying to determine MJ's cause of death... They are currently blaming it on the Boogie...
False Respect
brilliant!
True Senior Member
He was a weird guy, but musically he is a legend. i wonder if this day will be remember as the died that the King of Pop and the Angel died?
True Respect
Brendan, nice.
False Respect
so i just read that apparently MJ killed his body double and is in fact going to be the secret act at Glastonbury to kick off his U.K tour.
True Advanced Member
It's all leading up to an epic Thriller performance... Super-realistic-zombie-dancing.

I heard he was walking past a primary school and had a stroke
True Respect
He had more than one.
False Respect
OHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!! Woop woop!
False Respect
TOO SOON.
True Respect
His heart had clearly got enough.
True Respect

I heard he got food poisoning after eating 12 year old nuts.
True Respect
Oh. My. God. Secretly I think the LL community need a stand comedy up night. As a collective, we are pretty good...
True Senior Member
Shamone.
True Member
I'm dead. I'm dead. I'm really really dead…Still love you MJ + Faucett too.
True Member
oh seems like everyone's here.. I LOVE FARRAH. mj's prime was when he was five...
True Respect
Apparently the cops suspect foul play (or at least gross medical negligence). They are launching an investigation. AND PLEASE you all, though I know your little jokes are cute and it is just too easy (fish in a barrel) you are UPSETTING K.O. horribly. Give her AT LEAST 48 hours to get her head around this.
True Advanced Member
Damn, I have come into a nice controversial thread late as usual. I hate my company web filter. I have to agree with Jamie, he died a long time ago. As for the jokes well that is our culture. A friend refered to the Chaser song "everyone is a top bloke when they're dead" very relevant as well.
