This is tragic news for the world. BCK is speechless.

Via TMZ:

We’ve just learned Michael Jackson has died. He was 50.

Michael suffered a cardiac arrest earlier this afternoon at his Holmby Hills home and paramedics were unable to revive him. We’re told when paramedics arrived Jackson had no pulse and they never got a pulse back.

A source tells us Jackson was dead when paramedics arrived.

Once at the hospital, the staff tried to resuscitate him but he was completely unresponsive.

We’re told one of the staff members at Jackson’s home called 911.

La Toya ran in the hospital sobbing after Jackson was pronounced dead.

Michael is survived by three children: Michael Joseph Jackson, Jr., Paris Michael Katherine Jackson and Prince “Blanket” Michael Jackson II.

        I was shocked, ok? BCK was the site I first learned the news. Since when is expressing shock disrespectful? You’d think I cursed the man’s soul or something.

        Anyway, it’s been hours since and it still doesn’t seem real to me. I can’t believe he’s gone.

    I don’t think they will go with Debbie, they barely know her and Blanket isn’t even her child. I hope they won’t be separated and they will live together in a family they know well, maybe an uncle or an aunt. Poor Michael, and poor kids! I hope he was found by an adult, not one of his children!

      No there is no way that she will be given custody. She signed over her parental rights when the children were born.

    My only concern is for the kids and their well being. I am not sure how true this is, but on HLN someone reported that the kids know their grandmother but were not close to their extended family. If this is the case, I hope that the kids go to Katherine and not someone who would use them for $$$ purposes.

    May God be with these children!

      And let me add my condolences for the family as well. I know it’s not easy losing a loved one.

      Hopefully the press will let them have their time to grieve and heal.

      they talked about them going to Mrs. Jackson, but reports say that because she is not well, that probably won’t be the solution. Also there is problem because the children have no blood attachment to the Jacksons and they were estranged from the family as well as Michael, himself. Also the news said that the maternal mother would probably not get them because she signed away her rights for the second time after the trial was over. I don’t think she wants them anyway unless she can see getting money for taking them. He had to make a second payment to her to get her to sign back his rights to him. I do hope that the best of life comes to these children. I just can’t believe that Michael is gone.

        when those poor children go to their fathers funeral unmasked. you will see how much they( the 2 boys) look like him and realize that he is/was their biological father. and you will have to eat your words. you will owe him an apology on this site. but i doubt you will be a big enough person to do it.

        In listening to the news last night and today, I’m wondering what bone Maureen Ortd has to pick with Michael Jackson. Every time there is talk on MSNBC about Michael and his life as a star she seems to appear to talk about how weird he is and tell all sorts of tales that no one can deny because we never heard them. I wonder if she has some bone to pick with Michael Jackson and why she can’t wait acouple of weeks if she does. One Black commentator, did take her own this morning when she stated that Michael’s death like this would have been exactly what he wanted because he wanted to always be a star. The Black reporter finally told her that he didn’t agree with that at all. He thought, as I, that his biggest wish would have been to perform in the scheduled tour and have it be a great success. She even talked about how he preyed on little boys when she knows that the court case never proved that. Some one should sue her jealous ass. Michael must have dismissed her and that’t why she wants to make sure to get the bad stuff in while everybody is listening. His life is over now and she should be able to get over what ever it is that has her so set on destroying all the good memories of his career.

    Like the whole world over, my shock and disbelieve at MJ’s death has me literally in tears. I just can’t believe it. As I watch old Jackson 5 clips, I can’t help but remember when I was a little girl and was mesmerized by Michael and his brothers. I remember when they were on the Carol Burnett show or Ed Sullivan. I even remember when they had their own cartoon.

    Mike, there is no one like you who could ever entertain the world like you did. The world lost its best and brightest. There will never, ever be anyone who can follow your genius.

    My prayers to his family and especially his babies.

    Yes we lost the greatest entertainer to date, This is sad My hear goes out to his Mother, Father, Kids and siblings. But like all of us commenting on this site, We all have that appointment. It jsut reminds me that entertainers are truly peoiple like you and me, that GOD gave talent too, and the world knows them. We have his music, and the memories and that is what we will carry on with until our time.

    I just wish the media would RESPECT THE MAN IN DEATH AND NOT CALL HIM THAT NAME I WILL NOT TYPE IT, BUT CALL HIM BY HIS BIRTH NAME MICHAEL JACKSON OUT OF RESPECT TO HIS KIDS AND FAMILY. TMZ HAS A HORRIBLE NAME THEY ARE STILL CALLING MICHEAL, HE WILL BE MISSED

    He was the best entertainer I have ever seen in concert.

    It seems as though each venue of the entertainment industry has lost an entertainment icon this week:

    Ed McMahon – Tonight Show/Late Night Talk show venue
    Farrah Fawcett – Charlie’s Angels (and other shows and movies) along with calendar pin-up
    and
    Michael Jackson – Music Icon/Legend

    It is sad that Michael’s children, who are still very young, will be without their father, but hopefully responsible family members will step in and provide support, guidance and comfort to them as they go through this heavy loss.

    Michael Jackson is better than anyone ever he was a role model and still is i pray that his kids and siblings and his parents MICHAEL JACKSON proved that no matter how young or old you are you can still accomplish your dreams if you just believe i’m only 11 and when i heard the news that the best entertainer had passed away i was heartbroken i was hoping that my kids and me could see him live the best person in the world will be missed but not forgotten this reminds me of when my grandfather passed away he was a rock in our family and i’m not going to say i understand what his family is going through because i don’t through all these words i want to say MJ We All Love You And We will all keep you in our thoughts and prayers you are truly,truly missed but never forgotten. REST IN PEACE MICHAEL J. JACKSON from my family to yours.

    This breaks my heart. My sister and I just reminded each other of how we used to fight when we were kids about who would get to marry Michael when we grew up. I pray that he found even a fraction of happiness in this life that he gave so many during his short stay on this earth. Prayers for his children and his family. What a loss.

    Ok, let me try yo be nice… It is so hard to read peoples comments and how sorry everyone is and how they pray for Micheal to rest in peace when it seemed he never got that chance in life. we have never known Michael nor will we ever get that chance to know him here on earth again, and now everyone is sorry. i am just moved to tears by the fact that in life people are never appreciated but in death then they are glorified, when they are not even here to see it… i just pray that his children remain safe and happy and that when there time comes to be the best adults they can be, we will see the great man Michael was. Not because of his music, not because of his humanitarian works, but because of the great daddy he was to his kids… Michael i love you emensly and i know that you are finally at peace and are truly able to rest… love, kaiko
