Default Michael Jackson suffered cardiac arrest and died

It's currently breaking across all news programs and websites that Michael Jackson has been rushed to hospital after suffering a cardiac arrest, and has died. I hope this isn't true but it's on every channel.

If he has died then the world has lost a great musician, who gave us some truly wonderful music.

Many sources in LA have confirmed it, so rest in peace Michael.

All I see is cardiac arrest and wasn't breathing when found. I haven't heard a word of official death. It does certainly appear that way, though.

Allegations of taking multiples of sleeping pills to cause it, too. Can't say I'm surprised tbh.

I ain't going to belive any of it until I hear he's dead officially. Its mean to my hopes if he isnt dead.

Sky news is saying city officals have confirmed he's dead.

He was kind of weird but he had some good music to listen to every once in a while...

Would be pretty crappy if he died tbh.

It's all over with his condition... it's coma, hospitalised (as I see it that could be caused by a lot of things), or dead.

In any case, rest in peace.

LA Times is reporting death from "reputable sources." Long live the Thriller.

Edit: NBC News just also confirmed it themselves.

As someone who grew up in the 80's, he was the King of Pop for a solid decade, and was the biggest thing in showbiz.

RIP, I hope he finds peace now

Just heard about it myself. Surprised me. That's all I have to say. Not sure I should think "about time a creep like him dies" or if I should go "RIP"...

He appears to be bringing a ton of websites with him.

At least he had a good innings, poor chap. Ah well, despite his......hobbies, he was a unique character, I say. God rest his soul.

Man, that sucks, someone told me out of the blue in a text message a few minutes ago. Wasn't really a fan of his music, but it sucks that he died.

RIP, Memento Mori. Hopefully now he is at peace since his life was anything but normal.
