Your thoughts? Edited by UrlockGaur, 25 Jun 2009, 11:20 PM.

Saw it on CNN as well as BBC and Sky. General consensus appears to be that he aint dead yet, but as far as anyone actually knows he was found not breathing and take to hospital, nothing more. Given that he's probably in the care of some of the finest physicians on the planet, and he is only 50, I'd expect the chances of not-death to be good. Dave out. |

Yep reading back against the BBC (which have now updated the story on their website, so its not now the one that was posted at the top). He has not died, and the only unconfirmed report he actually has died is from TMZ.com. I guess there'll be more news soon on the story. |

Alot of places are saying he was in a deep coma and died at 3:15pm. LA Times, is where they are sourcing from. |

Vry much depends how long he wasn't breathing Dave. More than 10 minutes and I doubt he would survive no matter how good the docs. Shame. Also found out Farrah Fawcett has died. |

Must admit im not a fan of Jackson, but he's still a huge icon. Be a shame if it's true, artists like him come along very rarely. |

According to BBC News 24 the reports that he's dead are actually true. Seems he actually passed away a good two and a half hours ago... |

Beat me to it. MSNBC updated while I was eating dinner. Also not a fan, but he was an extremely talented individual, who came up with some very memorable songs/performances. And yes, as Digits pointed out Farrah Fawcett has also died; of cancer. Edited by Chaos Wolf, 25 Jun 2009, 10:54 PM.

Really mate, did you have to stoop as low as that? Can for once, we not have a thread in which we merely pay our respects, without the cheap shots and slander? At any rate, Michael Jackson, RIP. |

Whilst his later life wasn't always something to be proud of, his work in the 70's (with the jackson 5) and 80's was some of the best. Just hope the conspiracy theorists don't start another "Elvis lives" saga and let the poor family deal with it as they need.
