What a sad day, I heard the news on NPR as I was driving home. I am a little young to have fully known the progession of his career, but I know that he was a great artist (I love his early work) and will be missed by all. RIP.

it has been confirmed that he died in all news reports now...
Rest In Peace Michael, you were an inspiration to most of the famous musicians now, gave us classic dance songs, made MVs fun to watch, blinged gloves a fashion statement, and moved the world... thank you and my deepest sympathies to your family too.

I loved Michael Jackson and the Jackson 5. I can't believe he's gone. I feel so blessed to have been able to see him and his brothers live in NYC and DC.
Rest In Peace Michael!!!!!

I've been in shock mode for about 3 hours since I heard the news. It's sooo fucking surreal and unbelievable. To me, he seemed almost immortal, even though it was pretty obvious that he was not the healithiest man (mentally and physically). He's affected and influenced so many people in so many ways. He is an icon and a legend.
I'm just devestated. You know when you cry to the point where your brain feels like it's about to explode. Yeah, that's me right now...
And you know now that he's dead, all the secrets and stories from his very private life will come out and evil people will try to benefit from this tragedy.
This whole situation is just sick! But MJ is definitely in a better place now. He was such a brilliant man but such a tormented man. You could see it in his eyes. At least now he can rest in peace.

I'm very sad about it today and my mom was a big fan of him and she was so shocked about it after I got a text from my aunt.

I am sitting here with my mouth open in shock.
I was about 11 years old when my older sister brought home the "Off the Wall" record (yes, on vinyl.) And it was just so incredibly cool, it was dance music, but not cheesy disco. It was pop, but not fluff. My favorite was "Don't Stop Til You Get Enough."
Then "Thriller" came out when I was in 7th grade and forget it, you couldn't go anywhere without hearing or seeing something about Michael Jackson. I had no idea then that he would achieve the iconic status he did.
I hate thinking about how he declined in his later years, and how it was as if he became a punchline to so many sick jokes. I can't imagine how growing up being treated as a commodity would affect someone.
So RIP, Michael. I will remember you as the sweet little boy with the angelic voice, and later the young man who moonwalked himself into immortality.

I remember my brothers and I trying to do that slow lean to the ground from "smooth criminal" video. This is just so sad and there's never going to an entertainer who's so creative, musically gifted and an amazing dancer, like him again.

i've been crying my eyes out for the past 5 hours. i am exhausted. and so heartbroken.
but thankful that my ears were blessed to hear the genius of MJ. a serious musical genius, and a poineer i'll never forget. growing up listening to. kissing the tv whenever he was on. moonwalking in my socks across the kitchen floor. doing the thriller dance. "hee heee". grabbing my crotch lol. he was the first musical artist to make me cry with his music. i was 7 when i heard man in the mirror, and i was crying my eyes out. it really touched me.
what a fucking shock.
i still haven't even wrapped my brain around this.

we powdered the corridors of my home with my mum's expensive body powder so we could all slide and moon-walk with our socks. My brothers and I all nearly died that day when my olders sisters and mum came how from school and work
I did a spin and crotch grab on top of a desk in junior school.
I'm listening to all his songs on ipod now, I think that's the best way to honour him.
