R.I.P Michael

The loss of one of the greatest singer cum dancer of all time...

Quoted From Straits Times:

"POP giant Michael Jackson, who took to the stage as a child star and went on to set the world dancing to the thumping rhythms of his music for decades, died on Thursday, TMZ website reported. He was 50.

We've just learned Michael Jackson has died,' TMZ said. The Los Angeles Times also reported that Jackson had died, citing city and law enforcement sources.

Michael suffered a cardiac arrest earlier this afternoon and paramedics were unable to revive him. We're told when paramedics arrived Jackson had no pulse and they never got a pulse back.

There was no official confirmation of the reported death and spokespersons for Jackson could not be reached for comment.

Earlier, the Los Angeles Times said that the singer had been rushed to a Los Angeles-area hospital by fire department paramedics who found him not breathing when they arrived at the singer's home.

The newspaper said paramedics performed cardiopulmonary resuscitation at the scene before taking him to the UCLA Medical Centre hospital.

Jackson had been due to start a series of comeback concerts in London on July 13 running until March 2010. The singer, whose hits include 'Thriller' and 'Billie Jean,' had been rehearsing in the Los Angeles area for the past two months.

The shows for the 50 London concerts sold out within hours of going on sale in March.

Jackson started out as a child star in the band 'The Jackson 5' more than 40 years ago.

He has lived as a virtual recluse since his acquittal in 2005 on charges of child molestation.

There have been concerns about Jackson's health in recent years but the promoters of the London shows, AEG Live, said in March that Jackson had passed a 4-1/2 hour physical examination with independent doctors."



Now is still unofficial...I sincerely hope that this is one of his crazy stuff....to attract attention and make his comeback special...

I still remember when I first went to his concert...I was so captured by his song and dance moves...

No matter what...

You will be remembered...
