4	I'm more saddened by Farrah Fawcett's passing this morning than MJ. Once I loose respect for someone it's hard to gain that back, and he hadn't done that. I feel sorry for his family and children though.

It is tragic. But it wasn't hard to see coming. He has looked so ill for the last 10 years, I always knew he would die too young. I don't know if it's the surgeries, wacky health habits, or drugs, but you could just tell he was very sick. His whole family is Fruit Loops though, I imagine because of his dad being so abusive and demanding. His whole life, despite his immense success, just seems like a tragedy.

2	If you go to www.TMZ.com (I know 100% hates it) it has up-to-the-minute Michael Jackson news/updates/press conferences. A very sad day indeed, and these things do seem to some in threes. Ed McMahon yesterday, Farrah Fawcett and Michael Jackson today. Hollywood is a lot more somber today...prayers to all of the families and friends involved.

Did Michael Jackson do something personal to you? Why so much hate? You have 27 years of knowledge of Michael Jackson. I have 48 you don't know the other things he did in his life. Everyone has there shortcomings and if you cannot produce evidence of what he did SHUT YOUR YOUNG NAIVE MOUTH! I did not particularly care for Mike's lifestyle either but I didn't wish ill upon him.

8	There are those of us from Chicago who "grew up" listening to The Jackson 5. So the mean stuff? Just say what you gotta say. It does matter to some of us. Thanks to icedee up there who I happen to agree with. Just think of it this way, when someone dies, they have family ahd people that loved them. I'd gladly pay respect to some celebrity you may like that I don't by keeping my mouth shut.

6/25/09

2	This comment was voted poor quality by FanIQ (Show anyway) Other than his family, he really doesn't matter to anyone. If someone thinks he matters (mattered) to them, then they have fabricated some sort of importance that really isn't there. He no longer affects people's lives, and hasn't in a long time. Sorry, but it's true.

10	Despite the sideshow circus that Michael Jackson's life had become in the past 15 to 20 years, you cant deny that during his prime, he was a musical icon that helped put pop music on the map.

Well it is TMZ, so that speaks for itself. But his imprint on the world of music was one of astronomical proportions, and one that will never be forgotten. I didn't know him as a person, so I can't speak for anything else he has done or has been publicized. But seriously man, I think that Nima punk has gotten you a bit too riled up today, I ws merely posting a source as there clearly are people out there who do care, and that's for them to deal with and no one else.

Don't be so pompous as to think that your personal attitude applies to everyone. "He doesn't matter to anyone".....how do you know? Did you ask "everyone"? That said, I did think that Jackson's recent antics were quite eccentric at best. But it cannot be denied that he and his music were a defining part of his time, and that he will always be considered a famous entertainer because of that.

Yeah, Michael Jackson didn' matter that's why he sold so many albums and was asked to appear at so many benefits in his lifetime. WHy he was invited to so many dignitaries homes because he din't matter. Why so many people of so many different nationalities followed him up to this present day and why so many people are outside the hospital in which he died today.

I think it speaks volumes to the idiocy of our society today, more than to his current relevance.

In his day, he was an incredible performer, and I respect the huge influence that he had on music and pop culture. "His day", however, passed a LONG time ago. People are only positively affected by things he did 15+ years ago.

This is a fan site right? Ask ANY Dallas Cowboy fan (Cowboy fans don't take offense please just trying to make a point...) when a Cowboy fan is asked what there team has done, they almost immediately say 5 Super Bowl rings and their last Super Bowl when was when? Not Cowboy bashing, now but that was 1995 14 years ago. But ask any Cowboy fan and thats relevant! and as far as this statement, "... People are only positively affected by things he did 15+ years ago." Listen to the news.....

michael jackson's hobbies were singing and dancing... yours must be tabloid magazines or maybe voyerism, becuz where else would you supposedly know so much about him and children... maybe you should be investigated since you are so adamant about the situation.. michael jackson was a star and everybody wanted to be in his life whether it was negative or not... unless you was there and saw it you have no proof and neither does anuone else... so goodbye michael i love you and i hope you get the peace you deserve... my condolences to his family... love trish

Everyone has their own opinions and has their right to say them. So here's mine. I find it ridiculously disrespectful to speak ill of the dead. I have my opinions, but will keep them to myself, good or bad. His artistic influence is relevant even today. People still buy his records (cds, whatever) and site him as inspiration. As they do with Elvis, The Beatles, Kurt Cobain and many others who are gone or just haven't done anything lately. There's enough hate and anger in this world. Is 24 hours of respectful silence too much to ask for the family who just lost someone they love? If that was my brother or son or father I would rather hear nothing than all the negative. The silence would speak volumes.
Rest in peace Michael. For me, you will be missed.

I actually like his music. I am a fan of Michael Jackson, the artist. I just think that Michael Jackson the human being was a demented pervert, and his death doesn't suddenly make him a saint to me.

Don't try to pretend you know me, because it's clear that you have no clue. I have no problem with the color of Michael's skin, no matter which color it was at any given time. I just have a problem with his perverted tendencies.

And for the record, I've been on this site for 3 years, and I have had my own picture up there for a vast majority of that time. I have several pictures of me in my picture collection on here, but due to a glitch, I was unable to post it. Nice try, though.

forgive and forget. Sometimes, its what is neccesary to move on. Many people have. Others decide to hold it against Michael. It's not fair to him. Big sports stars have probably done far worse than Michael has, and they were forgiven and still loved. Why not him? Forgive his mistakes, as he is human as all of us. You cut him and he will bleed the same red oxygen-infused blood like our own. Let him rest in peace. Tip a hat in his honor.

Los Angeles and the world bow in your final encore, MJ. Our thoughts will be with you.

YES I FEEL IT WAS WEIRD THAT HE LOVED CHILDREN SO MUCH , BUT YOU CAN'T JUST ADMIT THAT IT MAY NEVER HAVE HAPPENED AND THAT RATHER THAN TO FIGHT IT OUT IN COURT LIKE LAST TIME MICHAEL AND HIS ADVISORS CHOSE TO GET RID OF IT? REMEMBER HE WAS FOUND NOT GUILTY IN HIS LAST TRIAL AND IT BASICALLY RUINED HIS CAREER. ANYWAYS I STILL WILL MISS AND GO ON DEFENDING HIM HE WAS A GREAT LEGEND... LOVE ALWAYS TO THE JACKSONS TRISH

You obviously have no clue whatsoever how this site works. Every time I post a blog with a picture in it, it goes into my picture collection. So I have literally thousands of pictures in my collection, which makes it impossible to find the pictures of me that I uploaded, even if I uploaded them recently.

If you are really so curious as to what I look like, go to the picture in my picture collection entitled "Me".

I promise you I am at least ten times better looking than yourself, so I assure you that's not the problem.
