Michael Jackson Dies
Posted Jun 25th 2009 5:20PM by TMZ Staff

We've just learned Michael Jackson has died. He was 50.

Michael suffered a cardiac arrest earlier this afternoon at his Holmby Hills home and paramedics were unable to revive him. We're told when paramedics arrived Jackson had no pulse and they never got a pulse back.

A source tells us Jackson was dead when paramedics arrived.

Once at the hospital, the staff tried to resuscitate him but he was completely unresponsive.

We're told one of the staff members at Jackson's home called 911.

La Toya ran in the hospital sobbing after Jackson was pronounced dead.

Michael is survived by three children: Michael Joseph Jackson, Jr., Paris Michael Katherine Jackson and Prince "Blanket" Michael Jackson II.

Story developing...

I'm just seeing this on the news now. I am shocked--

**DVC2004** · 06-25-2009, 06:45 PM

he's so young!!! Sad! WOW.

I was a kid when Thriller came out- almost no one has ever acheived the celebrity of Michael Jackson.

**NotaGeek** · 06-25-2009, 06:50 PM

Wow. So sad, I hope he finds peace. The Jackson 5 Rockin' Robin was the first record I ever bought -- and it was a 45".

While Michael Jackson was a controversial celebrity, this is not the forum for that discussion -- keep it INTERCOT friendly folks.

May he R.I.P.

I have shared this pic a few times here, but this will be the last, ran into MJ at Disney World back in 1984 in HS, at height of his popularity. RIP

WOW!!

I'm speechless!!

Thanks, Muphy1, for the pic.

**2Epcot** · 06-25-2009, 07:48 PM

Very sad news. I was not planning to see it in person, but was looking forward to him going back on tour. I'll always remember the numerous times I watched Captain EO at Disneyland and Walt Disney World.

**disneycutie165** · 06-25-2009, 07:51 PM

I'm so surprised! when a celeb dies it always seems weirder. and just the other day he had finally taken his kids out without paperbags, blankets, etc. over their heads. In the past week its been a triple whamy:
1. ed mcmahon
2. farrah faucet
3. michael jackson

RIP MICHAEL! WE'LL MISS YOU!

somewhere my cousin is crying!

**Tekneek** · 06-25-2009, 07:58 PM

Good bye, Captain EO. Thanks for the memories.

**magicofdisney** · 06-25-2009, 09:35 PM

I LOVED Michael Jackson while I was growing up. I am totally shocked. His music had an incredible influence on me during my teen years. I just couldn't believe it when I heard the news earlier. It makes me so sad.

**thrillme** · 06-25-2009, 10:02 PM

Farrah Facuett, Michael Jackson, Ed McMahon (excuse the spelling...I'm lazy right now).

These 3...well I grew up with them I was a kid and they were everywhere. Every girl whanted hair like Farrah and a smile...everybody wanted to Moon walk like Michael and Ed...was always part of Johnny Carson...
