R.I.P. Michael Jackson

Michael Jackson was born in Indiana the 29th of August 1958, and he’s been one of the most important artists in the world. He started his career in a band called The Jackson Five, composed by him and his brothers, and he became the new king of the pop music in 1982 when his album Thriller was released. We can remember him for hits like Thriller, Bad or Black or White.

But, believe it or not, Michael Jackson died for a heart attack the 25th of June, 2009. Just some hours ago.

This is what TMZ has published.

We’ve just learned Michael Jackson has died. He was 50.

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

A source tells us Jackson was dead when paramedics arrived. A cardiologist at UCLA tells TMZ Jackson died of cardiac arrest.

Once at the hospital, the staff tried to resuscitate him but he was completely unresponsive.

We’re told one of the staff members at Jackson’s home called 911.

La Toya ran in the hospital sobbing after Jackson was pronounced dead.

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

 

So, what can I say?

Michael Jackson, rest in peace.
