I second that. Thread title should be changed, for the reason named.

Thanks for changing - whoever did the magic

Sort of rude of Michael Jackson to drop dead on the same day Farrah Fawcett died. Kind of stole her thunder.

What a week. First Ed McMahon, then Farrah Fawcett, now Michael Jackson... and we still got two days to go.

All major US media organizations have now confirmed that he is dead.

RIP.

RIP to the king of pop

Wouldn't it be nice if we could all pick the day we get to die?

Anyway, I didn't like a lot of things about Jackson's personal life, but that doesn't take away his musical genius. Rest in peace.

He isn't dead.

He is dead. The LA Coroner came out and confirmed that MJ passed away from a heart attack.
