Michael Jackson Dead at 50
On the same day that Farrah Fawcett is dead at 62 from cancer, Michael Jackson is also reported dead - at just 50. Reports are that Michael Jackson died of a heart attack at his Southern California home.
Though long known for his increasing weirdness - Jackson had been trying to get his career back on track. Whatever you think about his obessions and bizarre plastic surgery there is no denyng that Michael Jackson was a musical genius. From a child star in the Jackson Five through to his famous moon walking Michael Jackson could sing and dance and compose with the best of them.
Over his career Michael Jackson has had 13 number one hits including
Black or White
The Way You Make Me Feel
Man in the Mirror
Thriller
The tradegy of Michael’s short life seemed to be his inability to deal with life in the spot light and his obvious problems with his own identity. Whatever at the end of the day his music will live on a lot longer than his weirdness - at least I hope so.
Initial reports had Michael Jackson in a coma but the county coroner in LA has now confirmed his death. He is survived by his three children who are no doubt on their way to California. The house is under guard by local police.
