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).

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.

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?

Yeah, would have thought since he said "Tom and Nicole" that it was a joke but you were clearly pretty concerned and got Googling!

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.

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.

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.
