They just gave a report that he was given CPR in the ambulance by the paramedices on the way to the hospital...his brothers and his family are en route to the hospital and they are saying that he is on "very bad shape"
They said a frantic 911 call was recived of a male had cardiac arrest and they needed help at JAckson's mansion.
May God have mercy on him and his family...even tho many may not like him or make fun of him he is a person and God loves Him too....
even tho he may have many problems this is not the thing he needs right now.....

| Though major news outlets don't appear to have it yet, many social media outlets are reporting he has died. |

If he did all the things accused of him, to children....then hell yeah he deserves the shots.
I don't wish him -- or anyone -- death....but I'm not going to pretend to gnash my teeth and weep either. |

I love how Twitter sources reported his death long before the major news outlets.
Way to be on top of things, mainstream media! |

Actually Brisbane News knew before mainstream usual sources in US...everyone has to verify anything TMZ says, as they are not to be trusted sources
This is an ODD coincidence.....
Severe Thunderstorm Warning Issued by the National Weather Service at 3:57 PM MDT on June 25, 2009
... A Severe Thunderstorm Warning remains in effect until 430 PM MDT
for southeastern Box Elder... southwestern Weber... Davis...
northeastern Tooele... Salt Lake and northwestern Utah counties...
At 352 PM MDT... National Weather Service Doppler radar continued to
indicate a line of severe thunderstorms capable of producing damaging
winds in excess of 60 mph. These storms were located along a line
extending from 11 miles west of West Warren to Lehi... moving east at
25 mph.
Wind gusts of 55 to 60 mph have been observed with these storms near
Bacchus Highway in far western Salt Lake County... and along
Interstate 80 in Tooele County.
Severe thunderstorms will be near...
West Valley City and Draper around 400 PM MDT...
Taylorsville... Sandy... Midvale and Highland around 405 PM MDT...
Salt Lake City International Airport... Sandy... Pleasant Grove
and Murray around 410 PM MDT...
Precautionary/preparedness actions...
This is a dangerous storm. If you are in its path... prepare
immediately for damaging winds... destructive hail... and deadly cloud
to ground lightning. People outside should move to a shelter...
preferably inside a strong building but away from windows.
THE JACKSONS CENTERED IN SALT LAKE way back when and still have house there

| He hasn't been well for many years. Now is not the time to dwell on his shortcomings but rather his accomplishments as it is not right to speak ill of the newly departed. |

Mainstream media, has the burden of verification. Blog sites, not so much.

Ed McMann, Farrah, and now Michael Jackson.
If Johnny is somewhere over yonder hosting his show, looks like he has a line up of guests.
Seriously, that is sad news. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family. |

| I was just mentioning late last night I wonder who would be #3. Life is so random. When I was 13 my dad died at age 50, complications from a CVA. Coincidentally, so did the dad of a school mate, same age, etc. Life is just so amazingly random. We always envy the peace of death, may Mr. J find his. I guess I'm a little more sad about Farrah Fawcett, hers was such a valiant struggle against cancer. So, there's the threes. I guess we could add D. Carradine, he could be the odd number four. But I think his death was too far back, even though it was just witiin the month. Well, make sure we check out Bill and Regis tomorrow morning. I'm sure it will all be funny and outragesous, right? Of course. Sorry, I'm still reeling over the death of a little seven year old boy here in my state who was beaten to death by his biological father who had recetnly been awarded custody of the boy after a long, bitter court battle. The death of an innocent little kid, right there in a comfortable suburb, being beaten and abused on a daily basis for WEEKS without anyone seeming to know anything about it...now that's one that keeps me up at night. Happened yesterday here in Massachusetts. Shudder.... |

I was shocked when I heard this as he is a year younger than me. My prayers for his family and friends.

Lisa Marie Presley Blog
Friday, June 26, 2009
He Knew.
Years ago Michael and I were having a deep conversation about life in general.
I can't recall the exact subject matter but he may have been questioning me about the circumstances of my Fathers Death.
At some point he paused, he stared at me very intensely and he stated with an almost calm certainty, "I am afraid that I am going to end up like him, the way he did."
I promptly tried to deter him from the idea, at which point he just shrugged his shoulders and nodded almost matter of fact as if to let me know, he knew what he knew and that was kind of that.
14 years later I am sitting here watching on the news an ambulance leaves the driveway of his home, the big gates, the crowds outside the gates, the coverage, the crowds outside the hospital, the Cause of death and what may have led up to it and the memory of this conversation hit me, as did the unstoppable tears.
A predicted ending by him, by loved ones and by me, but what I didn't predict was how much it was going to hurt when it finally happened.
The person I failed to help is being transferred right now to the LA County Coroners office for his Autopsy.
All of my indifference and detachment that I worked so hard to achieve over the years has just gone into the bowels of hell and right now I am gutted.
I am going to say now what I have never said before because I want the truth out there for once.
Our relationship was not "a sham" as is being reported in the press. It was an unusual relationship yes, where two unusual people who did not live or know a "Normal life" found a connection, perhaps with some suspect timing on his part. Nonetheless, I do believe he loved me as much as he could love anyone and I loved him very much.
I wanted to "save him" I wanted to save him from the inevitable which is what has just happened.
His family and his loved ones also wanted to save him from this as well but didn't know how and this was 14 years ago. We all worried that this would be the outcome then.
At that time, In trying to save him, I almost lost myself.
He was an incredibly dynamic force and power that was not to be underestimated.
When he used it for something good, It was the best and when he used it for something bad, It was really, REALLY bad.
Mediocrity was not a concept that would even for a second enter Michael Jackson's being or actions.
I became very ill and emotionally/ spiritually exhausted in my quest to save him from certain self-destructive behavior and from the awful vampires and leeches he would always manage to magnetize around him.
I was in over my head while trying.
I had my children to care for, I had to make a decision.
The hardest decision I have ever had to make, which was to walk away and let his fate have him, even though I desperately loved him and tried to stop or reverse it somehow.
After the Divorce, I spent a few years obsessing about him and what I could have done different, in regret.
Then I spent some angry years at the whole situation.
At some point, I truly became Indifferent, until now.
As I sit here overwhelmed with sadness, reflection and confusion at what was my biggest failure to date, watching on the news almost play by play The exact Scenario I saw happen on August 16th, 1977 happening again right now with Michael (A sight I never wanted to see again) just as he predicted, I am truly, truly gutted.
Any ill experience or words I have felt towards him in the past has just died inside of me along with him.
He was an amazing person and I am lucky to have gotten as close to him as I did and to have had the many experiences and years that we had together.
I desperately hope that he can be relieved from his pain, pressure and turmoil now.
He deserves to be free from all of that and I hope he is in a better place or will be.
I also hope that anyone else who feels they have failed to help him can be set free because he hopefully finally is.
The World is in shock but somehow he knew exactly how his fate would be played out some day more than anyone else knew, and he was right.
I really needed to say this right now, thanks for listening.
~LMP

littlestar, what Lisa Marie Presley said confirmed something I wondered about.
I grew up knowing (but never friends with) a guy named Joe Z. His family was quite rich, and he had lots of friends.
I learned after high school that he found out that all of those "friends" were friends with him only because he was rich... and the new knowledge devastated him. The problem was, he was stuck up and snobbish throughout the school years- if he hadn't been, we might have become friends- true friends, because he was a decent person and I could sense that.
I'd always wondered if Michael Jackson and Elvis had those sorts of "friends". That must be hell- wondering all the time if people are friends with you because they truly like you, or if they have ulterior motives.
Now I really feel sad for Michael and his family. |

| YES..that...and the fact that he was socially retarded, due to Familial lack of contact with people his own age, while growing up...plus you add in the Jehovah's Witness mindset and...well, what can I say about that... |

What a heartfelt and gut-felt letter she has written about herself and Michael...I just hope and pray that Michael has found peace and that Lisa Marie does too,,,after losing two important people in her life in nearly the same exact way...she was truthful and honest in what she felt, and we should all pray for peace and stability for her and both the Jackson and Presley families.
God's peace be on them all and may the truth come out on what really happened to him in his final days but also what really caused his death.
