Michael Jackson Has Died
TMZ is reporting that that Michael Jackson died in Los Angeles from cardiac arrest. The Los Angeles Times, AP, CNN and CBS all confirm the report. The L.A. Times says doctors pronounced him dead after he arrived at the hospital in a deep coma. He was only 50-years-old.
I really don't know what to say. I am completely shocked. This doesn't feel like real life! TMZ has all the details. I'll write a little more later.
And I'm back (FYI: this part was written a couple of hours later). I just finished watching hours upon hours of Michael Jackson coverage and I still don't really know what to say. I will say that the dude made awesome music. That's a fact. You know you busted your shit to at least one Michael Jackson song in your bedroom, a club, a parking lot, a high school gymnasium, etc... The first time I ever drunkenly fell off the stage at a club, "Scream" was playing. Yes, I remember that. I also remember staying up late to watch the premiere of "Remember the Time" on MTV (back when MTV still played videos). I recorded it over Maid to Over on VHS, just so I could watch it a bunch of times.
Michael Jackson's music will live on forever. Hos will be dancing to it for the rest of eternity. Below is my favorite Michael Jackson song. It's also one of my favorite karaoke songs. I mean, you can't lose when singing about special rat friends:
And here's a few pictures of Michael through the years.

What did you learn in school today? SHARING!!
---------------------------------------------------------
Never learned anything that useful in school. My mother taught me how to make a decent drink for friends. I was her little bartender when I was a baby cheese. Ahhh, mama. She also taught me about guns and ammo. What a woman.

Sometimes MJ fans are seriously delusional. How the hell can they compare his contributions to society with Princess Diana's, and then say he did MORE?! Musically, yes. Otherwise, no!
--------------------
Princess Diana has had no effect on my life. Sure I got to see pictures of a rich lady born into royalty. However, I've spent countless hours being entertained and at times uplifted by MJ's music.

~*~*~
I guess she didn't really do much for the US but in Europe and Africa she is remembered for her constant charity work (especially here in the UK). She was always holding some sick third world child. I'm sure that's where Angie got her ideas from.
But anyway, like I said musically no one comes close to MJ.

I just went to CNN to see what was on their site. Under Videos, there are two videos for MJ and one on drought in India. Puts it all in a strange perspective.

Hey! She wasn't being a jerkoff. She was pointing out to the people who dissed YOU for "stealing" Sandbitch's joke that someone else posted it before Sandbitch did. Chill the hell out, will you? None of you made it up - it's been all over the freaking net for hours! Jesus!

Wow , what a shock! He was an excellent musician.
Truth is, he pulled a Heath Ledger. Too many pills. But just because he died, doesn't make him a saint. Lets not forget the "child issues", the lies about his skin color and he was freakish.
I'm almost happy for his adopted kids. Now they may be able to live a somewhat normal life without having to wear veils everywhere they go.

Not in disagreement with anyone here. Say your piece - good, bad, funny, sad, whatever. It's all good with me.
DListed rocks, as do all of you regulars.
Here's hoping MK gets bags and bags of money for today. That's mainly why I'm bothering to write this, actually.
Hope we're not fighting. Love all of you (in a safe internet kind of way, ha). Fun times here on DListed!

Damn you. I started crying right away & had to turn it off after the FIRST verse... But you are right - that is the MJ I will always remember. It's such a damn shame the way he turned out. I was telling my kids how handsome he was when he was a kid (before all the freakish surgery) and they didn't believe me until they saw a really old video of his.
Nite Snowy!
