Michael Jackson dead from heart attack (TMZ)

Posted Jun 25th 2009 5:20PM by TMZ Staff

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.

Story developing...

Says he's not breathing.

People who have cardiac or respiratory arrest outside the hospital have a very small chance of coming through intact.

:wow:

I knew he wasn't doing too good health-wise, lately...

He revolutionized music, had truckloads of great songs in his prime...

Considering his upbringing, he accomplished a hell of a lot.

It's still unclear if he did molest children, or if he was overly fond of them in some weird protective way because he did not want to see children harmed. Until anything's conclusive, my usual feelings on child molesters can't apply. He was still nuts, but the man was a genius and set trends. Not corporate sponsored wannabe trends. I mean, real trends. He was whacked out at times... but a recipient of being called whacko myself, I can sympathize in ways many can't.

A tragic life, an amazing life, a controversial life... which ended all too soon. :(

but it doesn't look good.

I'm sure they have people on the payroll at every major hospital in L.A.

I doubt MSNBC does and has to go through the normal channels.




ed: add.

extensive surgery to their bodies. I know that their causes of death are separate from their operations and each cause of death was separate from each other ..... but to have two of them on the same day ....... is interesting.

to Thriller today.

came out, kids and adults alike.

And I think the molestation charges were all about money. Which adult in their right mind sends their kids to sleep with famous celebrities (and the last boy was moreso picking on MJ in that last documentary than the other way around). :mad: :cry:

via the TMZ report.

They can't even get a proper send off obit from Larry King...

Iran, Sanford, and now MJ are taking all of the news bandwidth.

God help us if there was a missing white teenage girl right now.

Sigh, RIP Michael, Farrah, Ed.

people will be seeing MJ and Elvis hanging out together in Kalamazoo or someplace in a few days.
