Oh this is ridiculous. Why a press conference, what more is there to know?
He's been a very influential person for many people. He's a music legend.

News have always covered big stories like this in the past, such as the death of Elvis and assasination of Lennon.

Its funny how the rose tinted glasses come out when someone has died. He has been nothing and nowhere these last 10 years, quite a laughing stock too and not to mention the trial ... at least Elvis and Lennon died with a good reputation in tact.

Music legend? Probably. Good person? No. Deserving of all this attention? No.
What has being a good person or not got to do with it?

Okay, he has hardly done anything in the last 10 years.

But he was in the media spotlight more this year due to his tour. And he was a music giant. A great. The one musician to have sold the most number of records in our generation. An inspiration to many, with fans going into millions.

No one is saying he is a saint. No one is saying his reputation is in tact.

But he has unfortunately passed away, and many people will mourn, and it will be the talking point of the world for the next few days, and therefore the media are covering it so extensively everywhere around the world.

I suppose its your prerogative if you find the death of a paedophile sad.

Was he actually a paedophile?
I thought he wasn't found guilty in 2005? :conf:

[Tom]

Zac the jury is still out. I personally think he was and money talks volumes. Most celebrities get away with things, even the smaller ones. That trial had imo already concluded before it had even started.

[Wildcat!]

Oh My GOD!!!!!! NOOOOO!!!!! :sad: :sad: :sad:

Aaah I see, thanks. I didn't know much about this whole 'peadophile' thing.

[Billy]

He did pay off loads of his alleged victims which is quite worrying.

Dunno though, he's still dead :(

Tom **** off, you're not above the US law system. He was found innocent. Show some respect.

Never said I was, I just think the whole thing has been blown out of proportion tbh and being made into a much bigger story than it is. Just because he was found innocent doesn't mean he didn't do it.

Maybe. But there's a time and a place. It's about respecting others feelings. Not your own.

[Wildcat!]

People wont realise what they have just lost unfortunately!!!!
The biggest pop star in history is now gone!

[Shaun]

Tom you've made your point perfectly clear, to keep re-asserting it is just disrespectful and unnecessary - it's clear that there are a lot of users upset by the news and as such will make exaggerated (angry) responses at you if you carry on like that.

Maybe if there weren't such angry responses which are completely unnecessary anyway I wouldn't keep posting. I'm not even reasserting a point anyway (well not in this thread anyway) I'm just responding to those who are being very OTT and melodramatic about the whole thing.

[James]

I've deleted a few posts here, we don't want it taken over by an argument.

You shutting up = no more abuse :thumbs:

[Iceman]

So sad to hear, the greatest has died, I didn't like his personal life but everybody has to agree he was one of if not the best musician/singer/dancer of the past 50 years. Couldn't believe it when I found out, nearly in tears. Long live the King.

Michael is now up there with Elvis, Buddy, Kurt, John, James...


Stevie Wonder is still with us, "I just called to say i love you" :bawling:

:sad: Someone text this earlier when I was out, didn't believe it until I just got in :Sad:

[BIG-BRO-FAN]

R.I.P. Michael - Elvis, Frank Sinatra and now Michael Jackson, the music world will not the same without you. Long reign your unique music.

It had to happen sometime, just a shame it's sooner rather than later. :bored:

Madonna's statement:

"I can't stop crying over the sad news. I have always admired Michael Jackson. The world has lost one of the greats, but his music will live on forever! My heart goes out to his three children and other members of his family. God bless."

Madonna's manager Twittered:

"The moment that never happened: A month ago Madonna told me she wanted to do a surprise performance at one of michael Jackson's uk shows.."

How sweet of her to say that, He was such a living god. RIP MJ :sad:

[Stu]

This is our generations Elvis. Enough said. Beyond that, I am not going to glorify the death of someone with obvious childlust. Theirs going to be two really annoying bandwagons over the next week. People desperate to paste jokes from Sickipedia, and people desperate to silence the voice of anybody who is not bowing before Jackson. I belong to neither.

Of course I know what he is saying. But why would that offend you? We are talking about Michael Jackson here. Frankly any post that essentially boil down to "Forget about the child molestation, banging tunes man!!!" deserves to have scorn poured over it, because it's an absolutely retarded thing to say.

Ive said many times in other threads that I dont care if people arent bothered by his death, so long as they are completely disrespectful and bitter.
Why cant we remember the good for now, and think about the bad times later on when its all sunk in?
Im afraid im never going to just let poeple be so sick about such a legend.

[Jackie]

I'm quite shocked actually my heart goes out to his family and children at this sad time.RIP Micheal.

[MarkWaldorf]

I love Alan Carr LOL

i love the way MJ fans have had a go cos i havent mentioned him. Sorry!! But i have a life,
about 7 hours ago from web

[Simone.]

I have mixed feelings about Micheal.

He's obviously been up to somethign dodgy, sleeping with children & whatever, he payed some boy's family $25 million not to take him to court, I mean that is seriously messed up. But his music is brilliant, he is legend & he is the king of pop. His music will live on, I'm just so shocked that he is gone.

[Jayson]

I feel awful sorry for his family :sad:

[Teamprice]

R.I.P. Micheal Jackson was a very gifted and talented man, he was and will always be the KING OF POP. No one can match his music he has given us from the early Jackson stuff to his great solo work. Thoughts and prayers to his family and children. A true legend leaves behind a great legacey of music videos and wackyness.:angel::angel:

[rhombus92]

his death is tragic but it aint the most important story in the world. innocent people are being butchered in iran, and we are more worried about MJ? He was a genius and will be missed, but in my opinion the protection of democracy is more important. also, i think some of the pictures that are being spread are appaling. the picture of the body bag and the pcitures of his grieving family are tasteless and shameful. sometimes i think 24 hour news is a curse. they will be told eventually

[Marc]

The winner... could be the last in the world to know about MJ!

[John.]

I can't believe some people are wanting their refunds already. it's shocking.


There was a guy on the news at Glastonbury, and he was moaning that he had spent so much money (£65) on the ticket and really wanted it back.

How can people be so disrespectful. MJ has just died. At least let him be buried first.

[Sophii3x]

^ That's just shocking!

I was completly shocked when I found out, it's taken a bit of time to actually sink in. May he rest in peace and my thoughts go out to his children, family and his fans. Love him or hate him, he made a huge impact on the music industry and created some of the best music.

[LemonJam]

I was shocked when I heard.

Michael Jackson was and still is THE most respectable, innovative and brilliant pop artist. His music was diverse, but every bit of it was enjoyable. A very talented singer, dancer and general musician.

Anyone who disrespects him, IMO, is a moron.

[HeatherTWx]

He was a legend in the music industry. No-one will ever replace his music. I'm not a huge fan of him but it came as quite a shock when my mum told me last night.i was watching BB when she told and i was just sat there watching the news til about 1 in the morning wanting to know what had happened. I am still pretty shocked that he's died. But he'll never be forgotten.

R.I.P MICHAEL *

[tedmaul]

I am devestated to hear Michael Jackson has died!

I have heard he was visiting the childrens ward at UCLA Hospital where he had a fatal stroke.

As a person or a musician? As a person, you cannot blame people for disrespecting him.

[Zac]

Just if some of you didn't already know, Five have changed their shedule for tonight and are showing Michael Jackson: King of Pop tonight at 7pm to celebrate his life.
I'll definetley be watching.

[StGeorge]

TBH.. im not that bothered.
He is no different to Gary Glitter....another big pop icon who has/had a fetish for children.

Jackson may of been a massive pop star etc but he used and abused his fame & fortune to lure impressionable young boys into his bed.

Peops need to get a reality check.

[M X]

I'm utterly devastated at this news, I am a HUGE mj fan and I have been crying all day. Every one at school is upset. I am SOOOOOOO shocked and sadnenned.

The world won't be the same without Michael. I'm literally crying as I'm typing this, R.I.P Michael

He wouldn't want everybody to be upset. Knowing him as a great entertainer i'm sure he'd like everybody to be happy and partying or something and celebrating his great life.

[Zac]

OMG just forget the whole 'peadophile' thing, he was found guilty.

[Noel]

I just can't believe he's gone..I've cried so much today and I just won't believe it.

Oh, and do you guys still think it's the heart-attack that caused his death now it's suspected he had an overdose of painkillers?

At the end of the day, you have no evidence he did it just as I have no evidence he didn't do it. As far as I'm concerned, he was proven not guilty.

And let's just pay some respect to the man. If you don't like the guy, then simply just don't post in this topic regarding him or his death. It's that simple.

Hi people..

Are BB going to tell thehousemates; they have to.

I`m watching BBLB &&; they`re going on all normal.

They have to be told .. MJ was an icon.

Seperate the man from the music; whether you feel that he did it or not .

They should be told.

(I was all for keeping my opinions to myself as I do feel sorry for him dying, until I was told I was moronic for not respecting him)

If BB don`t tell them ..

then that`s awful.

They`ll be the only people in the world who DONT know.

Again, don't the rules state that the housemates don't have contact with the outside world? They weren't even told about the July bombings so why would they be told about this?

[BOSSChick]

Lmaooo;

Why do people keep saying that ..

They got to see Barack`s speech.

MJ is a legend. Full Stop.

Billions of people are thinking about him .. mourning him.

Why leave them out ? ..

Jade Goody - epitome of everything that's wrong with society. Ignorant, loud, aggressive, un-talented, shameless and pathetic.

Michael Jackson - one of the greatest ever cultural icons, immensely talented and revolutionary, and loved the world over.

There's no comparison.

MICHAEL JACKSON - Crazed, retarded idiot who had an unnatural liking for small children.

Bit weird, yeah. Paedophile, no.

Anyone who keeps asserting that needs to assess their life really, the court found him innocent. By this very logic I can go around wildly claiming people to be paedophiles, just because 'I think they are'.

Ultimately he was and is a legend, so um, bubbah.

[Billy]

LOL if you say so.

On Channel 4 they said they`re going to do a live tribute on tonights eviction .. maybe they`ll tell them ; live.

I dont think so! There is no reason for them to tell them about MJ's passing. It will cause nothing but pain, and bring the whole house down.
Plus, theyre not supposed to know whats going on, so thats fair enough. The BArrack Obama thing was a historic event, lus they had 2 african american housemates. NOt to mention that its CBB, not quite the same.

Well it is a bit moronic to not respect him, TBH. He's only just died. The least you can do is show a little respect. If you don't like him, then don't come in to a thread, which is mourning his death. You're entitled to your opinion, but it isn't fair on Michael or his fans to have people calling him this and that just hours after his death. If you had any integrity or emotion, you would understand this.

"The person who makes the call says Jackson was not breathing and unconscious. Jackson was not responding to CPR. The caller says the doctor on scene -- Dr. Conrad Murray -- was the only witness -- "The doctor has been the only one here.""

The doctor has now been located.

I do, and I feel totally sorry for you guys and his family and whatever, but when people are calling others names for disrespecting him, then perhsaps they should remember WHY some people disrespect him.

Omg this is so sad. On bbc 1 the tribute thing has gotten so sad now.

And let's just pay some respect to the man. If you don't like the guy, then simply just don't post in this topic regarding him or his death. It's that simple.

Bingo, +K

If you didn't like him then fair enough, but keep your pathetic nasty comments to yourself.

Why? Why should people keep their comments to themselves? People sure as hell didn't when Jade Goody died, so wtf would it be any different? The man IMO was a disgusting idiot.

(I was all for keeping my opinions to myself as I do feel sorry for him dying, until I was told I was moronic for not respecting him)

Well it is a bit moronic to not respect him, TBH. He's only just died. The least you can do is show a little respect. If you don't like him, then don't come in to a thread, which is mourning his death. You're entitled to your opinion, but it isn't fair on Michael or his fans to have people calling him this and that just hours after his death. If you had any integrity or emotion, you would understand this.

I do, and I feel totally sorry for you guys and his family and whatever, but when people are calling others names for disrespecting him, then perhsaps they should remember WHY some people disrespect him.

True. I admit, I shouldn't have called you that earlier, but I was just a bit upset about it all. I don't think Michael would have liked his fans to be rude to others on his behalf, and taking pops at others is just going to fuel more disrespect.

Denise just mentioned his death on Eastenders. It sounded so fake and unprepared, but then again, they just filmed it today.

Last night after I found out about his death I kept seeing his face everywhere, I imagined him following me up the stairs and I couldn't get to sleep because his face was just everywhere I looked. This always happens when I find out about a death, it always creeps me out. :/

Michael's death is only just beginning to sink in for me now.

Here we go.......

[Mrluvaluva]

Sky News is better.

[MarkWaldorf]

-is confused-

[Mrluvaluva]

His body is available for release. Awaiting toxicology reports which take 6-8 weeks. Apparently there was no doctor available to sign the death certificate?

[MarkWaldorf]

This is sooo crazy!

[Simone.]

I don't get it.
We don't yet know the cause of his death....right?

[Mrluvaluva]

The question is, what happened to the doctor? If he was with him when he died, but would not call his death, and then made a disappearing act, not signing the death certificate. This doesn't add up?

[MarkWaldorf]

No, I don't think so....

The reporter just said that it isn't uncommon for death certificates not to be signed for high profile cases to avoid law suits, especially when a cause of death hasn't been determined yet.

[Mrluvaluva]

"The L.A. County Coroner just announced Michael Jackson's autopsy has been completed -- but more testing is needed before the official cause of death can be determined.

The coroner said the cause of death was deferred because additional testing -- including toxicology and other tests -- is needed. It will take 4-6 weeks to complete.

There was no trauma to Michael's body and "no indication of foul play" -- but he said Michael had been taking "some prescription medications."

He said Michael was pronounced dead in the emergency room of UCLA. Jackson's body will be released after 6 PM."

The most obvious thing to conclude from that is that the doctor's done something wrong, overdosing him on painkillers or something....idk. I'm really confused.

But we can't expect someone like Micheal Jackson to die in a normal way.

[MarkWaldorf]

I'm guessing it's pretty evident now that it was drug related?

Why did he go missing then?

"When EMTs arrived at Michael Jackson's home yesterday, the medics wanted to pronounce him dead on the scene -- but Michael's personal doctor refused to let them "call it" -- this according to sources close to the situation.

When EMTs arrived there was evidence someone had been performing CPR on Michael for "quite some time." There was evidence of Lidocaine -- an old-school drug that can be used to treat disturbances in the heart's rhythm. Medics took over performing CPR but determined Jackson was lifeless -- and wanted to call the coroner to pick up the body.

We're told Jackson was flat-lined when EMTs arrived.

But our sources say M.J.'s doc demanded EMTs continue performing CPR anyway, and demanded that they take Michael to the hospital.

Once they arrived at UCLA, we're told Jackson's doc continued to personally administer CPR -- even though it was clear Jackson was already gone."

"Michael Jackson had a habit of getting Demerol injections -- he even had a special name for them.

We're told Jackson called it "health tonic." He would have a doctor inject him because, we're told, he didn't like needles.

Our sources have told us Jackson was injected with Demerol at 11:30 AM the day he died. Shortly thereafter Jackson went into cardiac arrest."


TMZ

[Mrluvaluva]

"Dr. Conrad Murray sent the note on his letterhead from his medical practice in Las Vegas. He says, "I am deeply saddened to leave you at this point, but please know my absence is not permanent." He continues, "In my absence, I will continue to manage the practice, and be involved as much as possible but from a distance."

The letter says "My absence is not permanent."

We're told AEG -- the company that was putting on the London concerts -- put Dr. Murray on the payroll."

IKR!
It's a bit like the the Elvis situation, when he became more famous after his death. I think MJ's death is bigger than EP's.

[Jayson]

Apparently it had been revealed that there was 'no foul play' in MJ's death :dance2:

[Mrluvaluva]

"One question investigators will have for Michael Jackson's personal physician -- did he botch early CPR efforts on the King of Pop?

On the 911 tape obtained by TMZ, one of Jackson's staffers tells the dispatcher that Jackson is "on the bed" and that a "doctor is here." The doctor is Dr. Conrad Murray.

Several EMTs tell us it's odd that a veteran cardiologist like Murray would attempt CPR while Jackson was on a bed.

Common CPR practices call for the patient to be on a hard surface -- because it is difficult to compress the chest on a soft surface. The 911 operator told the staffer to "get him on the floor."

Cops have yet to officially interview Dr. Murray, but this will almost certainly come up."


TMZ

[Jayson]

I think he was probs too shoked to remember to put him on the floor.
Or he hated MJ.

[Mrluvaluva]

He may have lay on the bed to receive his injection so that says a whole lot really.

Or perhaps Michael didn't have the energy or the passion to traul through the grueling procedure of court proceedings? He's not been well for a long time, sometimes it works out easier and cheaper to make a donate rather than drag things out through the courts.

At the Sree and Marcus comment (before you deleted it), Sree and Marcus haven't just died. Whether it's Michael Jackson, Sree and Marcus, or Aunt Sally from Dublin, when someone dies it's common to be kind and respect their passing. Sure you can lighten the topic (as some fans are in here, by discussing his music, his best times and his acheivements) but disrespecting him through your 'jokes' isn't what many want in this thread.

Anyway.

"A source close to the family of Michael Jackson tells TMZ the family has requested a second autopsy -- and it is currently underway somewhere in Los Angeles.

The Los Angeles County Coroner conducted an autopsy on Friday and while he said there was "no indication of foul play," the official cause of death could not be determined."

At the end of the day everybody has their opinion and althought I never believe the allagations made against him nobody knew exactly what went on and never will but still I find it very disrespectful that people will post unnecessary, crass jokes on a public forum.

Michael Jackson Tribute Song Exceeds 100,000 Plays

June 26th, 2009 | by Pete Cashmore

A tribute song to Michael Jackson featuring The Game, Chris Brown, Diddy, Usher, Mario Winans, Boyz2Men and other leading artists has resulted in an unprecedented number of downloads today from Box.net, the file sharing site we’ve been tracking for over 3 years.

The song was spread largely through social media: Diddy tweeted the link to his almost 1.3 million Twitter (Twitter) followers, making “Better On The Other Side” the most popular link on Twitter today by far (at the time of writing, it has almost 2000 retweets). While Box.net does not usually disclose its stats, we approached the company and received approval to make the numbers public.

The short of it: the tribute song will exceed 100,000 plays by the end of the day, a remarkable number.

Revealed: Jackson's Last Magazine Cover Shot


One of the final photographs of Michael Jackson, showing the singer with shades and sunken cheeks, has appeared on the cover of the latest edition of Q magazine.


http://i153.photobucket.com/albums/s233/BGRAYSHON/boyzoneemptyBIG_450x250-4.jpg


The decision to feature the star on the cover was taken three months ago and the issue was intended to mark the start of the Jackson's London concerts, the editor said.

Photographer John Wright, who snapped the cover image, said he was given just 90 seconds to take Jackson's picture but added that he had been struck by the singer's polite manner.

"I got a call saying Michael Jackson was in London and I could shoot him," said Mr Wright.

"I never thought for a second it would come off, so I was surprised when he did turn up at the office where we were doing the shoot.

"He looked exactly like you'd expect Michael Jackson to look: hair weave, military jacket, shades on inside.

"He was wearing a lot of make-up and he didn't have the healthiest skin that I've ever seen.

"He seemed fairly comfortable in front of the camera, though he wasn't jumping through hoops. I got a minute-and-a-half to shoot him, which is no time at all.

"My abiding memory is how polite he was - forgetting everything that's gone on, if you were his parents, you'd be proud of how you'd brought him up."

Q's editor-in-chief Paul Rees explained that uncanny timing had seen the edition go on sale just two days after the singer's untimely death.

"Work on this issue was completed a fortnight ago and it was printed shortly thereafter," he said.

"When news of Michael Jackson's death broke, it was already being distributed. As such, we have had no opportunity to change any of the editorial content within the issue.

"Such is the risk inherent in producing a monthly magazine - that events may overtake a story that you are committed to."

Mr Rees said that a feature about Jackson's Thriller album would stand as the magazine's tribute to the late star: "It remains a remarkable work by a truly remarkable pop star. We shall not see his like again."

Wow, I didn't realise they'd distributed the issue.... or had they? I have a feeling they've done it for publicity.

The Jacksons: 'We Can't Describe Our Pain'


Michael Jackson's family has released a statement describing his death as "one of the darkest moments of our lives".

The comments were issued to People magazine by the pop superstar's father Joseph Jackson.

The statement reads: "In one of the darkest moments of our lives we find it hard to find the words appropriate to this sudden tragedy we all had to encounter.

"Our beloved son, brother and father of three children has gone so unexpectedly, in such a tragic way and much too soon.

"It leaves us, his family, speechless and devastated to a point, where communication with the outside world seems almost impossible at times.

"We miss Michael endlessly, our pain cannot be described in words.

"But Michael would not want us to give up now.

"So we want to thank all of his faithful supporters and loyal fans worldwide, you - who Michael loved so much.

"Please do not despair, because Michael will continue to live on in each and every one of you.

"Continue to spread his message, because that is what he would want you to do.

"Carry on, so his legacy will live forever."

Jackson's father added a personal statement focusing on the late singer's three children Prince Michael I, Paris and Prince Michael II.

He said: "My grandchildren are deeply moved by all the love and support you have shown for them and their father, Michael Jackson."
