sad

clemette - I'm with you on that!

Nice Kerry. Have you got any evidence he was 'doing things' to his children? Nasty thoughts you've got going on in your head

kerry - I agree with all your points (not a MJ fan) but do think he was a brilliant performer nonetheless.

Yes very about farrah especially as she didn't get a chance to get wed.

Indeed. Never convicted. A couple of hits?! Come on Kerry

Errr, that's dead, no quotes. [duh]

Sky news is still quoting TMZ.

BBC news still saying it's not clear if he's dead.

Getting a bit confusing. Is it not possible for us to use the original thread? Its difficult with two on the go.

so is he or isn't he?

Just relayed the basic news reports (hospital, maybe dead, dead) to DH and he said wait until the morning as it could be one of his famous publicity stunts (I don't think it is)

Sorry but I'm sort of with Kerry. He was a eirdo freak, and personally I think he was "never convicted" of molestation the same way that OJ was "never convicted" of murdering Nicole. He was creepy (both of them). I remember when he hung his kid over the balcony - who does that????

Hope it's not a publicity stunt, pretty rotten if it is

Think he had more than a couple of hits Kerry, but then, you'll be finding out for sure over the next few weeks. His songs will be everywhere, so you can acquaint yourself with the 'few' hits all over again.

I wonder if he is dead, will the concert tickets be refunded???

I wonder if he's doing a Tupac - faking his own death to get a easy, carefree life?

FWIW it is on NBC news that he has died at 3.15 pm LA time

Kerry - where??

Ah well I'm off to bed. We all die sometime and I guess I'll find out for sure if he is dead or not in the morning.

Such a talented guy. A huge loss to the music world.
Thriller album was a huge influence in the music world. Way ahead of it's time. A real pioneer in music and music videos.

Oh god, that's true they will be playing that very ordinary music all over the place, won't they.

Christ it doesn't take long for the sickos to start gathering like vultures does it? Yes, Michael Jackson was weird. Very very weird. But he was not convicted of child sex offences. How hard is that to understand??

If he is dead, I really hope that the children he claims to be his get some degree of normality back in their lives and can finally take off those damn masks. That's no way for a child to live.
