99% of all child molesters were molested themselves, that's why it's such a sad and vile act. Paedophiles destroy so many lives when they continue there abuse on others.

I just heard some breaking news as to how he died.

It's unconfirmed, but they say he's said to have choked on some 12 year old nuts...

Poor old Michael, gone the way of many greats before him

Elvis - bloated drug addict died on the can

Deano - drunk

Sinatra - gangster

Hendrix - choked on vomit

the list goes on.....

Absolute legend of the music world, made what (in my opinion) is the greatest "pop" album of all time. Shame he was so odd! I've already heard 7 Michael Jackson jokes, 1 of which was funny, PM me if you want to hear it..

All in all, RIP Michael Jackson, The King of Pop and possibly the greatest musical artist of all time (possibly).

Was not aware of any of this last night. Didnt watch the news and was in bed at 10.30pm.
Seeing the headline in the paper this paper sent a chill down my spine. Well and truly shocked and had to phone the missus to see if it was on the telly.
I was only 8 when Elvis died so didnt appreciate the enormity back then. Jacko, apart from all his disgraceful side to his nature, is the biggest pop icon i have grown up with.
Dont blame people for having a dig and a joke about him as was not a huge fan and i will probably laugh at some of the jokes that will come out and he has brought that type of split in the public opinion on himself.
RIP MJ

if you want to seperate the music and the man he is nowhere near sinatra, elvis, the beatles in terms of pop and

he was nowhere near even the biggest motown influence (smokey robinson, holland/dozier/holland, 4 tops, marvin gaye and of course the supremes/diana ross)

yes, ona a par with kurt cobain. over-rated and dead.

best dancer of the lot mind.

For me the difference between Michael Jackson and the other artists mentioned is that he had a career as a child, which probably lead in part to all the other stranger aspects of his life as an adult.

It is still a source of pain to me to see (or hear this morning particularly) that beautiful little kid singing such feel good tunes as ABC and Rocking Robin with such "apparent" joie de vivre

Paul Gambacini just said he was the first global pop superstar, that Thriller was the biggest selling album of all time, that he was the first video superstar and that although his weirdness will be a long footnote what will endure is his musical gift. He also said he belonged in the top ten artists of all time, whichever other 9 you choose to put in, and I am happy with that summation.

I think the generational thing is true, if you are around 40 it was the soundtrack to life (whether you liked it or not!).
