[I AM JOHN!]

What the hell?

 

[Juice]

Dammit. Now that he's dead, he's just going to be glorified.

I'd rather he be a living deadbeat than an immortal deadbeat.

 

[GSG Flash]

I'm going with the CNN story and not accepting any Michael Jackson death reports. Hopefully he gets better soon.

 

[Spooks]

wait it's true?


wtfs

 

[X26]

He was a wierd guy, sure, but harmless, and one of the greatets musical artists of all time. Damn that's terrible, barely over 50

 

[Barrett2]

I saw Michael Jackson in concert in Dodger Stadium in 1986..

that is how I will remember him

 

[AlphaSnake]

This can't be true...wtf?

 

[FuturusX]

Gov. Mark Sanford has never been so glad to hear of a person's death.

QFT

 

[Guled]

dam, RIP if its true.

 

[Evlar]

AP seems unwilling to confirm more than "rushed to the hospital, apparent heart attack, not breathing".

Holy Shit fast moving thread.

 

[Lonestar]

Gov. Mark Sanford has never been so glad to hear of a person's death.

I've been saying that to people here at work. Not just MJ today though. Two of them. It doesn't make sense to be like that, but it's the Media....

 

[Skittleguy]

I think this is going to affect everyone.

RIP, sweet Prince of Pop.

 

[scarybore]

Wow. :/

 

[xS1TH L0RDx]

Holy shit, this is fucking WIERD....man I'm kinda speechless

 

[HUELEN10]

After Stranger in Moscow plays, I am gonna play some Sonic 3...

Source of some MJ memories.

Damn, it's like a part of my childhood died...

Truly he was the prince of pop.

 

[wenis]

Can't say anything about his personal life because we really don't know anything about it, but goddamn if he wasn't one of the greatest performers to have given so much to this planet. Shitty way to go out and not being able to give even more. 50 is still young for a performer.

 

[2 Minutes Turkish]

Fuck, and I was going to gou out and by Off the Wall soon. It'll be sold out for years now.

 

[Shawnwhann]

I don't believe this news...I won't believe this news...

 

[Crumpet Trumpet]

This is crazy :'(

 

[clemenx]

What? wait wtf.

This can't be happening.

 

[jonnybryce]

I'm going with the CNN story and not accepting any Michael Jackson death reports. Hopefully he gets better soon.

THIS.

 

[Mik2121]

Man.. playing his songs right now make them feel even more epic than they already did

 

[Jason's Ultimatum]

Watching CNN it says that hes alive

CNN it syas that he's alive

he's alive

whew

 

[Davidion]

What a shame, what a life. Controversy or not, he changed the world.

Goddamn

 

[Eaten By A Grue]

I really hope TMZ is wrong.

 

[donkey show]

Damn man, I was playing Smooth Criminal when I found this thread before it was changed to RIP Michael. =(

See you again Moonwalker. ;__;

 

[TheOMan]

I really wanted to see him in concert.

RIP

Edit: Wait - what? He's alive???

 

[THE:MILKMAN]

Shocking news.............R.I.P MJ.

*hit's play on thriller*

 

[scorcho]

FWIW al jazera is confirming this

 

[Gallbaro]

wow CNN on their action set has a picture of MJ. The first thing that popped in my head when I saw his face was Conan's wax figures.

 

[jett]

Wow this came out of nowhere...

 

[Forkball]

CNN says he is alive still.

king

 

[Killthee]

WTF?!?!?!? This is awful.....

RIP Michael....

;_;

 

[captmcblack]

If he's dead (and I pray not), the world has lost the greatest entertainer it has ever seen.

Ever.

Period.

RIP, MJJ.

 

[Tyrone Slothrop]

cable news channels still aren't reporting anything, just that he's in the hospital. but yeah... i'm pretty sure he's passed.

Gov. Mark Sanford has never been so glad to hear of a person's death.

yeah he lucked out there

 

[jiggle]

@o@;

 

[Kabuki Quantum Lover]

What an anti-climatic end to one of the most prolific, if not one of the strangest artists on earth.

RIP

 

[Amir0x]

He was a pedophile and so, it's hard to feel sad. Still, his music catalog provided a lot of interesting memories over the year. So, the man versus the legend

 

[Acid08]

Dude was beyond fucked up. He had a terrible childhood and in turn did terrible things to kids. Still he made some fucking amazing music before he went kinda crazy. RIP if true.

 

[DanDeschain]

Goddamn

 

[typhonsentra]

It's sad that he was never able to redeem himself or some back at all.

Sucks for Fawcett too, as she died today too and she'll barely get a mention.

 

[Keyser Soze]

LA Fire Dept tell SkyNews they cannot say anything... Reuters story taken from TMZ....

...could still be false.

 

[Mr. Sam]

We're all going to look very silly when it turns out he's fine, aren't we?

 

[The Faceless Master]

 

[yacobod]

thats sad, too bad he couldnt help restore his image before kicking the bucket, he's been a joke for the past 2 decades, doesnt diminish thriller and off the wall tho

rip

 

[gamergirly]

People says that he's not breathing.....

[Kreed]

I don't believe this! :-(

R.I.P. Michael

 

[Zenith]

Oh god, there's going to be complete media saturation over this. Every news station, magazine, tv channel will be pumping coverage of his life 24/7 for the next week. Real issues like the Iranian elections will lose the oxygen of publicity and will disappear.

 

[Lost Fragment]

I'm watching CNN, and I haven't heard them say that he's alive.

They just haven't said that he's dead.
