Pop Legend Michael Jackson Dies At Age 50

LA Times has reported that pop star Michael Jackson was pronounced dead by doctors this afternoon after arriving at a hospital in a deep coma.

Paramedics were called to a home on the 100 block of Carolwood Drive off Sunset Boulevard. The home is about 2 1/2 miles, about a six-minute drive, from UCLA Medical Center. An earlier version of this post incorrectly described the time to travel between the home and hospital as two minutes.]

The news comes as Jackson, 50, was attempting a comeback after years of tabloid headlines, most notably his trial and acquittal on child molestation charges.

  1. Hopefully he has finally found the peace that eluded him in life. He was never a child and then tried to live that way as an adult – very sad!

  2. Yes as a child he behaved as an adult. Then as an adult he did become very child-like.

    The loss will be felt around the world for years and possible decades to come.

    RIP
