I was wrong.
Today, at 3:15 PM, Michael Jackson, a music legend, famous throughout the world, died of a heart attack in the UCLA medical center. Shocked fans gathered to the hospital, just standing outside. Some cryed, some marched, some even wore some kind of uniform and blasted music from cars. Celebrities like Elizebeth Taylor, and of course, the Jackson family came to say goodbye.
I found out about ten minutes after he died, when a friend of mine received a text saying that Michael Jackson was dead. I didn't believe it, of course, but when I turned on the radio, it was undeniable.
Heres my face before: o_o
Heres my face after: O.o
Anyways, even though i was never truly a fan, i feel like i should give the legend a tribute.
Heres some Michael Jackson facts:
- He was inducted into the Rock and Roll hall of fame twice, once in the Jackson 5, and once as a solo artist.
- He sold a whopping 750 million albums worldwide.
- While many accused him of being a pedophile, all court cases put him in the clear, and the children he always had around him strongly argued that he never touched them. Many claim the stress on his life and reputation from the claims of him being a child molester caused his eventual demise...
- His album "Thriller" is currently the most popular album of all time, with 46 million sales.
- He did, in fact, dangle his third son from a ninth floor balcony for his fans.
- He once burned his face doing an ad for Pepsi.
His music video for "Billy Jean" was the first video by a black artist to be shown on MTV.
