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

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

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

    Jackson had 13 number one hits during his solo career.

      He's dead. Holy Cow. I was a huge fan back in the 80's. Could dance Thriller as good as any of cast. His music will be around for a long time.

        Only TMZ reported "death". L.A. Times is reporting coma.

        What a tumultuous day!

          Yup, so far no other news source is confirming he's passed...but they also don't know how long he'd not been breathing either. He could be in an irreversible coma if it'd been a long time.

          {edit}

          Now it's official on CNN...he's passed

            CNN is reporting that the LA Times says he's died. The online LA Times does say that in its current headline.

                Associated Press source: Michael Jackson dies in LA Hospital

                LOS ANGELES (AP) - Michael Jackson, the record-breaking, sensationally gifted "King of Pop" who emerged from childhood superstardom to become the entertainment world's most influential singer and dancer, and the tabloid world's most disturbing celebrity, has died. He was 50. A person with knowledge of the situation says Jackson died Thursday in a Los Angeles hospital. The person was not authorized to speak publicly and requested anonymity.

                  When I heard about Farrah Fawcett this morning, I asked myself who's going to be next since these deaths always seem to come in 3's. MJ is #3. It's been a sad week for the entertainment industry.

                    I was/am a huge fan of MJ's music and talent. With his death, for me, comes the epitome of the phrase...Rest In Peace. His life was anything but peaceful.

                    Whatta week it's been. I doubt anyone expected MJ to be #3.

                          Ed McMahon. Although I don't think you are "ignorant" by any means maybe you just forgot about him I know it
                          took me a few minutes to figure out this 3's reference.

                          RIP Michael no one knows the pain and joys you experience besides you.
                          Thanks for your talent and brilliant career.

                            He "was" King of Pop. Making a tour again and trying to recapture what "was" could never be...that is the reality. I think for Michael he knew the expectations were great and it was unreachable. He was and will always be remembered as the Great One. Only he knew his demons, his fears. As we know ours. Once again, money, power and ... fame can not bring happiness. I mourn Michael as a man who brought us thrills in music and videos so we could dance and fantasize in our own minds to the tunes in which he sang.

                            Rest In Peace Michael.

                              Ah, thank you. I've not been following the news as much as I should have this week.
