Pop star Michael Jackson has been rushed to hospital in Los Angeles with a suspected cardiac arrest. Jackson’s family members are reportedly rushing to his bedside. The Los Angeles Times reported that the 50-year-old singer was not breathing when paramedics arrived at his home.Update: We're told that Michael Jackson "KING OF POP"(1958-2009) has died. He was just 50.
Michael suffered a cardiac arrest earlier this afternoon and paramedics were unable to revive him. We're told when paramedics arrived Jackson had no pulse and they never got a pulse back. Jackson's songs were featured on a number of different movie soundtracks over the years, and as an actor he appeared in the film The Wiz.
Of course we'll never forget his extended music video for Thriller, directed by John Landis. Though he's had his share of problems and controversy over the years, it's sad to hear that one of the great pop-culture icons of our generation has passed on. :'(
Michael is survived by three children: Michael Joseph Jackson, Jr., Paris Michael Katherine Jackson and Prince "Blanket" Michael Jackson II.
Jackson had 13 number one hits during his solo career.
