A sad day for the industry..I'm sure he'll be elevated to even greater hights now, after all thats what seems to happen when icons die. Not gonna benefit him much, but may he rest in peace.

And I don't necessarily approve of people so confidently saying he's a child abuser. As has been said on this thread, it was never proved. Anyone can be accused for anything, and in this case, most people don't care about facts, but run along with the mob waving their torches and pitchforks. But fact remains, he was rich, he was odd, and thus vulnerable to such accusations. Doesn't make him guilty though.

Irrespective of Jacko's personal life, he was a huge part of my childhood and adolescence - my first ever vinyl album as a child was Thriller. I grew up listening to his music, through the releases through the 80s and 90, and along the way I rediscovered some of the older disco classics like Off The Wall. The music world has lost a great performer and entertainer. Ditto for Farrah Fawcett. We lost two icons of our childhood today.

They didn't end up getting married. It was too late, because she was slipping in and out of consciousness at the time of death.

Michael Jackson was considered a child in his mind. I mean, hell, he even said they were the only ones who really understood him. He just never grew up. Plus, he was a musical genius. Show some respect, and leave your unwarranted bigotry at the door, please.

RIP to both of them.

None specifically. Just a general statement to his mental state. Society as a whole is just too hellbent on convicting a man who just never developed mentally, in my opinion.

He certainly was an enigma.

I honestly felt nothing but sadness for him over the last 15 years.

Does anyone think that there's even a tiny chance of this being staged?
