The entertainment world was shocked today as it has been reported the the so-called King of Pop, Michael Jackson has died. Jackson was only 50 years old and has died of an apparent heart attack after he was rushed to a Los Angeles hospital.

He is most widely known for his album Thriller that came out in 1982 that has sold over 25 million copies and included such hits as Billie Jean and of course Thriller. The Thriller video featured dancing zombies such as in The Night Of The Living Dead and was open to speculation as to what the whole thing meant.

Jackson had his troubles as he faced molestation charges a number of times, a divorce from Elvis Presley’s daughter Lisa Marie after 2 years of marriage, near bankruptcy, the sale of his Neverland Ranch and personal effects and other matters.

Michael Jackson was gearing up for a comeback tour and 50 shows at a London Arena that was to begin on July 13th.

Many considered Jackson somewhat of a freak as he became increasingly out of touch with normal life. He was almost never seen out of costume or makeup and his appearence seemed to change on a yearly or even more frequent basis. he was known for being quite excentric and buying lavish furnishings and also spending nearly all his earnings from concert tours on expensive suites in world class hotels.

The world will never know what might have happened on his latest planned comeback tour.
