King of Pop dies at age 50

WOW!! This is crazy news. Yesterday, June 25, 2009, it was reported that Michael Jackson, the king of pop, died due to cardiac arrest at the young age of 50. I am still in shock over this news. Michael Jackson dead!! What is even more sad is that on the same day Farrah Fawcett lost her battle to cancer, and while Jackson's death creates a whirlwind of emotions around the world, Fawcett's memory will remain left in the background. Although Jackson was an icon to the music industry, there were some lifestyle choices that allowed Jackson to fall from the hot spot. I wonder now if his death will erase the images of Jackson was at the end of his career and replace them with what Jackson started out as?! Either way it has been a sad week for celebrities as we say good bye to a T.V. icon, Ed MacMahon, Farrah Fawcett and the King of Pop, M.J.
