MJ Update
July 3rd 2009
Guess none of us should be surprised by the drama which is now unfolding from Michael Jackson's death. Can't believe that the ex-wife Debbie Rowe now wants the children after "selling" them for $8 million and having very little contact with them for twelve years.
The children have grown up around the Jackson family members, so not sure why she would want to uproot them for the people they are already comfortable with, especially during this difficult time. Guess the "price on their heads" just became greater with the $500 Million of Michael Jackson estate. It is unfortunate, but in the end the children are the ones who suffer the most.
I am happy to see all the Michael Jackson tributes that have been filling the airwaves in honor of Micheal's talent. Hopefully he will be remembered for his talent and not all the scandal that surrounded his life. I think that he bought is own death though. Paying different doctors for different prescriptions made for a lethal combination of drugs which may have lead to his demise. How do you say no to a superstar? Especially when he is willing to pay $150, 000 A MONTH for a private doctor!
At least he had a Will and seems to be worth more dead than alive. Like one news reporter said, Marilyn Monroe and Elvis (and I would add Bod Marley) are more popular in death than they were when they were alive.

It is with great sadness that we learn today that the King of Pop, Michael Jackson died today at the age of 50. The pop star reportedly collapsed at 12 noon today in Los Angeles. He was rushed to the hospital where he fell into a coma and died around 3 PM today. At the time he was in Los Angeles rehearsing for an up coming world come back tour which was scheduled to begin next month. Despite passing a comprehensive medical test, the pop star died suddenly today.
Jackson's star started rising in the 1960s as a member of the Jackson Five. Michael also showed that he could hold his own beginning in the early 1980s and continuing up until the late 1990s. Although his reputation became tarnished in recent years with accusations of child molestation, none can dispute his raw and unquestionable talent.
Quick Facts about the Fallen Star:
Michael Jackson's Albums "Thriller" remains the biggest-selling album of all time
with more than 26 million copies sold.
Quick Facts Continued...

Inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1997
