i find it pretty tasteless how just flipping through news channels just now, 3/4 stories were talking about his child molestation charges.
 
Perez Hilton's first post about MJ going to hospital :|


?We knew something like this would happen!!

Michael Jackson was taken by ambulance from his Holmby Hills home to a nearby Los Angeles hospital on Thursday afternoon!!

Supposedly, the singer went into cardiac arrest and the paramedics had to administer CPR!!!

His mother is even on the way to visit him!!!

We are dubious!!

Jacko pulled a similar stunt when he was getting ready for his big HBO special in ?95 when he ?collapsed? at rehearsal!

He was dragging his heels on that just like his upcoming 50 date London residency at the 02 Arena, of which he already postponed the first few dates!!!

Either he?s lying or making himself sick, but we?re curious to see if he?s able to go on!!!

Get your money back, ticket holders!!!!?

This is very sad. Let us remember his work and musical genius and not the crazy stuff. He will live on as one of the best singer/dancer ever, if not the best.

QFT.
 
Judging from his record sales and his worldwide support I'm going to have to put Michael above all else, even The King. He is probably the most famous person and recognizable person around the world. I don't think everybody knows just how well he is received outside of the US - it's super star status squared.

Yep. There are very few people as well known as he is. Mickey Mouse. Elvis. Michael Jordan.

He's not really dead. It's just an elaborate scheme so that he can finally get out of the limelight & attempt to live a slightly normal life. All that's left now is a little plastic surgery & unbleaching treatment to make him look like a black man with a big nose, and no one will recognize him.

Then, he can go hang out with Elvis.

and Tupac.
 
This is pretty messed up. First celeb to ever die that finally makes me feel old. I loved this guys music growing up and respect him much for that aspect of his life. RIP "music" side of Michael Jackson.
 
Cant beleive how many people have put his Thriller album up for sale on eBay already. Is that the first thing they thought when he died? Crazy.

Given the beliefs about Elvis I would not be suprised AT ALL to see this theory fervently believed.

ABC has a 20/20 special on him now. Sad, seeing Jermaine giving a news conference on his brother's death.

im surprised more of the major networks haven't started coverage on it, all the shows they are doing are repeats.
