Man, celebrities have been dropping like flies lately. Apparently Michael Jackson has died at the age of 50.

I don't believe TMZ or Twitter. When a reputable source such as Fox news confirms I'll believe it.






Just kidding

I heard about this while I was at the grocery store a little after 3pm - weird place to hear news like this. The first thing I thought of, was that whoever has that 'Free Michael Jackson' magnet now has a collectors' item...

RIP.

Agreed, He was the king of pop creating a ton of great music. Unfortunatly the great musician part has been dead for some time now.

Likely his music will live on for centuries. His reputation and problems will likely be forgotten long before his music fades.

How many people think of a fat dude that died on a toilet when they hear the name Elvis?
