The Hollywood Report Editor-In-Chief saying that they're hearing from the hospital he has died (on BBC radio).
 
This man has been a source of such unbelievably inspired material. He had issues LIKE ALL FUCKING GENIUSES. He was a living legend of unmatched magnitude. His music and his videos are ICON
 
When looking back on this life, remember that abused children have a high tendency to offend themselves...

He was never able get the help he so clearly needed.
 
The pedophile thing is going to come up in this thread guys, it's part of his legacy, like it or not.

You think when OJ dies his thread will only talk about his football playing and Naked Gun movies?

Fuck off it's goddamn obvious the guy was a fucking child rapist. He's a despicable human being for that shit.

Like everyone has said though, that doesn't really change that Thriller is one of the best albums of all time.
How do you know he was a child rapist? Get the fuck out of here with that shit.
 
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WHAT THE FUCK!

:(

Please be alive Michael :(

Are you kidding me? Even if he is a pedophile, should we not feel sad when homosexuals die?

...

Anyway, I see a lot of recreational grieving here. People going through the motions of "Oh how sad and tortured I am by this tragedy, how deep and profound these thoughts on death I have."

Hyperbolic statements about an image of a person you never knew. You'll be over this in a few weeks tops. The people who actually knew him personally will take years to get over it.

I really hope that was a perma-ban. there were so many things wrong with those statements that he must be one fucked-up bigoted individual to have them.
 
Parsing the disjointed reports... I would guess he's dead but the hospital wants to let the Jackson family/publicist/lawyers craft the announcement.

I know it is 100x bigger then Heath Ledger. I just didn't feel like getting flamed. :lol

uh... they are almost exactly the same thing.

It's the sexual actions that come from being a pedophile or a homosexual that are different.

I was wandering in the rain
Mask of life, feelin insane
Swift and sudden fall from grace
Sunny days seem far away
Kremlins shadow belittlin me
Stalins tomb wont let me be
On and on and on it came
Wish the rain would just let me

How does it feel (how does it feel)
How does it feel
How does it feel
When youre alone
And youre cold inside

Here abandoned in my fame
Armageddon of the brain
Kgb was doggin me
Take my name and just let me be
Then a begger boy called my name
Happy days will drown the pain
On and on and on it came
And again, and again, and again...
Take my name and just let me be

How does it feel (how does it feel)
How does it feel
How does it feel
How does it feel
How does it feel (how does it feel now)
How does it feel
How does it feel
When youre alone
And youre cold inside

How does it feel (how does it feel)
How does it feel
How does it feel
How does it feel
How does it feel (how does it feel now)
How does it feel
How does it feel
When youre alone
And youre cold inside

Like stranger in moscow
Like stranger in moscow
Were talkin danger
Were talkin danger, baby
Like stranger in moscow
Were talkin danger
Were talkin danger, baby
Like stranger in moscow
Im livin lonely
Im livin lonely, baby
Stranger in moscow

One of my personal favorites. RIP MJ.
 
If true, one of the greatest living legends of music is gone. The last decade may not have been kind to him musically or in his personal life, but you cannot deny the genius of his earlier work. There is a reason Thriller is still the highest selling album of all time, with nothing being remotely close to its numbers.
 
Man, I remember standing outside the Cardiff Arms Park in Wales when he played there when I was a kid. One of my most vivid memories.

:(
 
The loss of a man who will forever be known as a musical/entertainment legend. Even if he had some rocky points in his life, that doesn't negate all of the amazing things he gave to the world. Rest in peace MJ.

You know, I've never listened seen the Thriller vid...

I think I should watch it in memory of the king.
 
MJ 500s NeoGAF.

As it should be.


Motherfucking NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. I still can't accept this.

I refuse. FUCK FUCK FUCK. I'll be listening to his music in tears for months.

Is TMZ the only source saying that he's dead?

seems so. They were talking to his dad apparently.

I understand why news networks aren't confirming it yet. That would be a disaster if wrong.

No it isn't. He acted like a child, he wanted to be a child which meant he wanted to be around kids. Never meant he was a pedophile.
 
So is he actually dead or not? It's all a bit up in the air.

Oh and nice cruel joke Google ads, showing adverts for O2 tickets to see Jackson.
