Yes it does, however, considering the source I want to let there be a 2nd confirmation...most likely will come after family makes it to ER and all next of kin are notified......

Dead

A good thing IMO

Local TV news is broadcasting breaking news about his death.

Jeez dude. A little harsh, don't you think? :rolleyes:

Wow, tough day.

I think the MJ joke thread should go out of respect. No matter what you think, Zef.

Yes it should.

First Farrah, now Michael. I guess I'm gettin' old when I see the stars of my high school days passing away.

Let's not forget, he had a thing for underage boys.

I said the same thing earlier. It's made me turn to who is popular today and how it'll look to our kids 20 years from now.

Shut up. If you have nothing productive to add, go away, please.

In highschool, his music was always in my top list.

a lot can be said about him, and a lot of it is highly debatable. But i doubt anybody can deny he did have talent in buckets... And yes he was probably nucking futs in the end, but then again:
The family
the young age for that amount of success and attention
The insane amounts of money
The screaming crowds, anywhere you go, any time of the day
The entourage
Medical issues

how many of those on the board here, would have dealt with it any better then he did?

And yes, the "children" issues... they are there...i doubt he was a pedophile , more likely he tried to get the childhood he never had, by hanging out with kids in a bit to cozy way for a grown up.. but probably not much different then how kids would have had sleepovers or whatnot.....i think the true guilty ones are those who allowed it to happen, those who never told him , "snap out of it, you are not a 8 year old anymore".
I'm not excusing him in any way, he was a dumbass in that respect...

Personally, i don't think i would have stayed sane either.. i would have self destructed well before the age of 50 if i had gone through the same kind of motions that he did...

Very sad.

He never really grew up somehow, but he achieved more in his life than most of us ever will.

Respect and godspeed.

Yeah the guy had his demons, but he deserves a little forgiveness. (I know I will be flamed but his life is over for crying out loud). Still listen to Thriller from time to time, before he tarnished himself. Sorry to hear. Someone said a rough day, boy is that the truth. Maybe the gloved one will find some peace now.

Nope...sorry....not for a pedophil, talented or not. No excuse for that.:(

He could dance, that's for damn sure. I think he wore himself out. There was really no reason to make a comeback except he couldn't seem to stop spending. I mean, he was renting a house off Sunset for 100K/month? That's just too bad that he couldn't find peace and live out his life w/o more issues.

Last I knew he was hanging out in Bahrain, then this comeback stuff.

I sure hope no one wants to make the Neverland ranch into some sideshow tourist stop.
