"King of Pop" Michael Jackson dies aged 50
Michael Jackson, one of the most successful pop musicians of all time, has died after suffering a cardiac arrest in his Los Angeles home. Jackson sold over 750 million albums in his sometimes controversial career.
The 50 year-old "King of Pop" was rushed to the nearby UCLA Medical Center, and County Coroner Fred Corral said he was unresponsive and pronounced dead soon after. Medical officers are now conducting an autopsy to check for toxicology or other problems - with results set to be published later on Friday. Fans the world over mourned the pop star as word of his death spread quickly. "Michael Jackson was weightless - a moonwalker, a transformer, a werewolf, he wasn't of this world," wrote the German daily Sueddeutsche Zeitung Friday. "As long as he had a handle on his weightlessness and could play with it, it was his biggest capital. But in the end it's what killed him. "Even moonwalkers can't lose contact to Earth for very long," concluded the paper.

The descent of a star Michael Jackson at the London O2 Arena in March 2009Bildunterschrift: Großansicht des Bildes mit der Bildunterschrift: The King of Pop announced his comeback tour in March 2009 Born in 1958 in Gary, Indiana, Jackson became a child star as a member of the Jackson Five. As an adult, Jackson moved on to a successful - and often controversial - solo career. This career peaked with his 1982 record "Thriller," which is the best selling album of all time. In later life Jackson struggled with a series of court cases and allegations about his private life, damaging his career and his financial situation, but he remained a popular character with an enormous fan base. The German newsmagazine Spiegel Online wrote that Jackson had two faces: One was "the monster, more alien than human, lifted, pale and in the end as emaciated as a skeleton." On the other hand, there was "the genius that reinvented pop, sold more albums than anyone else (…) and was admired by the masses - in particular by his musical heirs, who never would have existed without his influence and who are now mourning his passing with an unequalled flood of condolence: Beyonce, Usher, Justin Timberlake, to name three of many." At the time of his death he had been preparing for a 50-concert run in London that was meant to rejuvenate his career, and secure his financial future. "A comeback has seldom been as necessary as it was in Jackson's case," wrote the Sueddeutsche. Though it's now too late for a comeback, the troubled pop icon leaves behind a generation that has at some point tried to moonwalk and a legacy of young musicians - like Beyonce and Timberlake - who are carrying on in his footsteps.

Michael Jackson died
LOS ANGELES — Michael Jackson, the "King of Pop" who once moonwalked above the music world, died Thursday as he prepared for a comeback bid to vanquish nightmare years of sexual scandal and financial calamity. He was 50. Jackson died at UCLA Medical Center after being stricken at his rented home in Holmby Hills. Paramedics tried to resuscitate him at his home for nearly three-quarters of an hour, then rushed him to the hospital, where doctors continued to work on him. "It is believed he suffered cardiac arrest in his home. However, the cause of his death is unknown until results of the autopsy are known," his brother Jermaine said. Police said they were investigating, standard procedure in high-profile cases. Jackson's death brought a tragic end to a long, bizarre, sometimes farcical decline from his peak in the 1980s, when he was popular music's premier all-around performer, a uniter of black and white music who shattered the race barrier on MTV, dominated the charts and dazzled even more on stage. His 1982 album "Thriller" _ which included the blockbuster hits "Beat It," "Billie Jean" and "Thriller" _ is the best-selling album of all time, with an estimated 50 million copies sold worldwide. At the time of his death, Jackson was rehearsing hard for what was to be his greatest comeback: He was scheduled for an unprecedented 50 shows at a London arena, with the first set for July 13. As word of his death spread, MTV switched its programming to play videos from Jackson's heyday. Radio stations began playing marathons of his hits. Hundreds of people gathered outside the hospital. In New York's Times Square, a low groan went up in the crowd when a screen flashed that Jackson had died, and people began relaying the news to friends by cell phone. "No joke. King of Pop is no more. Wow," Michael Harris, 36, of New York City, read from a text message a friend had sent him. "It's like when Kennedy was assassinated. I will always remember being in Times Square when Michael Jackson died."
