Michael Jackson Dies From Cardiac Arrest: Report

Published 06/25/2009 · By Ronnie Gamble

The reports are coming in. Earlier Thursday (June 25), news of Farrah Fawcett's death shocked every, and now, Michael Jackson goes late this afternoon in Los Angeles.

According to TMZ, the King of Pop was rushed to a Los Angeles hospital shortly after 12:00 p.m. after suffering from cardiac arrest at his Holmby Hills home. Paramedics administered CPR in the ambulance ... and at the time things looked grim.

Members of his family rushed to UCLA, shortly after the news.

Upon arrival to the hospital, Jackson had no pulse, and despite trying to revive him, it came to no avail.

The King of Pop was just 50 years old. He will be missed by many. He was a true legend.

Michael is survived by three children: Michael Joseph Jackson, Jr., Paris Michael Katherine Jackson and Prince "Blanket" Michael Jackson II.

As a solo artist, he had 13 no. 1 hits and still holds the record for the best-selling album of all-time with 1982's Thriller. As of 2007, the Guinness Book of World Records lists the album as having sold 65 million copies worldwide.

Rest in peace from the BallerStatus.com family.

The passing of Michael Jackson is like a star being plucked from the sky. The sky becomes a little dimmer.

Mike was a big inspiration to alot of all these young R&B singers. I learned how to dance by watching old micheal jackson videos. Rest In Peace Micheal Joseph Jackson Sr.

Save the little boys - June 28, 2009 at 11:31 am

No, I know one of the families of one of the boys Michael Jackson touched. The kid has been fucked up since he was 6! He is now a teen that takes a pharmacies worth of meds to deal with depression, PTSD, mood disorder, anxiety and a shitload more of mental ailments. You know what be did to deserve it? Not a damn thing, his mother was on the cleaning crew at the never neverland ranch. Do I have the right to damn him to hell? No…. But I’ve seen what this monster has done first hand.

faith - June 28, 2009 at 4:39 pm

I loved Michael Jackson and his brothers. It’s a real shock and tragedy to lose such a great entertainer. On behalf of the Lacy family in the San Francisco Bay Area, we love you and your family will remain in our prayers. Janet you are beautiful. R.I.P. Michael and God Bless the entire Jackson family. He was the “King.”
We will miss him much.
