I'm in Aw... and so saddened by this news. I grew up as an 80's baby and I feel like one of our "great" legends is gone. I'm sure it's comparable with when Elvis died. I feel like an era has ended.

I could see it now...
Hee-Hoo!
Hee-Hoo!

karlin Moore, that was inappropriate. I am assuming you are 13 or 14 years old because I hate to think you are older and your parents didn't teach you any respect.
80's child here. Big part of my teen years. WOW, I feel odd.

he was great when he was young(:
Michael Jackson your are the king of the music industry,what will happen NOW!!!especially your 1980's songs.Condolence to the family.

I'm speachless
Good riddance, another cho-mo gone, whos complaining?
who ever says they are glad should never say that cause Karma is a "B". It will come back to you. Never dwell on someone elses tragedy.
You are a mean person!!!!!!
you're right, those kids must of had it coming, maybe they'll think twice cause of karma
Billie Jean is not my lover.
He was so talented. I'm a product of the 80s. Michael J. was the king of pop. Loved his work.
Making note of his talent, the personal cost to share it with the world, and his Christ like defiance aginst false charges, Michael Jackson has been named a Saint. This decree was signed last evening just before midnight by Nikolas, Patriarch of the Benedictine Church. Join us in prayer fro his family at www.prayerchapel.com
I agree with the sending condolences to the family. His parents, siblings, and children are going through a really tough time. However, we don't have to forgive him if he molested those children. It's not our place. It's up to the victims, their families, and whatever God MJ believed in.
Got something to say?
