Breaking: Michael Jackson hospitalized

Re: Breaking: Michael Jackson dead

Superficial still calling it a heart attack, tmz saying death... which gossip to believe???
 
I should have put money on him not doing those July concerts; I had a bad feeling about them from the start.

Sad news overall though, I always liked the guy's music.
 
He apparently suffered from severe arthritis in his later years. I was wondering how he was going to do those moonwalks. It was certainly going to be a different show than usual if it ever happened.
 
Holy crap. As weird as he got in the past couple of decades, I always liked his music. I hope the reports I've been seeing that he's dead are wrong. :(

They say well known icons go in threes, we've had two so far today...

On a similar note and trying not to sound too offensive but how is Patrick Swayze doing these days? Is he holding steady or still slipping?

Nobody is saying, but he's been looking pretty rough lately.

Walter Cronkite is supposedly on his deathbed, too. So we could get four this week...:(
 
I'm feeling a bit uncomfortable with this. I have harsh feelings about what he became over the years but I'm trying to bite my tounge. I will say though that this guy gave us "Thriller" which I consider one of the greatest albums of all time. I hope he's alright but it's not looking good.
 
You know, part of me half-expects this all to be a publicity stunt like the hyperbaric chamber, Bubbles and the Neverland Ranch, to drum up interest for the July concerts. But I don't think it is, sadly. Passing of a musical icon, even in his diminished state.
 
"Thriller", "Billie Jean", "Bad", "The Way You Make Me Feel", "Beat It", "Man In The Mirror", "Black or White", "Rock With You", "Wanna Be Startin' Somethin", "Scream", "Smooth Criminal", "They Don't Care About Us", I love all of those songs. Michael Jackson has always been one of my favorite artists, and it was sad to see him descend into the craziness that has been his life for the past 15 years. Very sad.

J.
 
This is sad news. I hope he's not dead. He always said he wanted to live forever... :(

By the way, my favourite song of his was 'Beat It'.
