Michael Jackson dead at age 50

LOS ANGELES -- Pop star Michael Jackson has been taken to UCLA Medical Center by ambulance suffering from cardiac arrest, fire officials confirm.

Los Angeles Fire Department Captain Steve Ruda said paramedics responded to a 911 call at Jackson's home around 12:26 p.m. He was not breathing when they arrived. The paramedics performed CPR and took him to UCLA Medical Center, Ruda says.

It's unclear what he was being treated for or what his current condition may be.

Wow, what next

Word on CNN and MSNBC does not sound encouraging but it is quite early so we should wait till something more official comes out on his exact condition.

TMZ is reporting that he has passed away.

OMG. This is a shocker. The 70's and 80's are flashing before my eyes today. So sad. I don't know what else to say.

Maybe there's a chance TMZ is wrong, but I don't think so. I think the other news outlets are just being cautious and triple checking the story before the go with it.

According TO TMZ he has died I hope this is not true

I saw the TMZ report, but they're a gossip site so I won't believe it until I see it on an actual "news" like CNN and the like.

This is also being discussed in the Main Lounge.

I hope TMZ is wrong but there's just no way they'd put that out there if it's not true.

This is shocking.

And we have three threads and counting.
