OH MY FUCKING GOD
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 and paramedics were unable to revive him. We're told when paramedics arrived Jackson had no pulse and they never got a pulse back.
Michael is survived by three children: Michael Joseph Jackson, Jr., Paris Michael Katherine Jackson and Prince "Blanket" Michael Jackson II.
Jackson had 13 number one hits during his solo career.
OH MY GOD.
I am shaking, ngl.
ETA:
I hope it's not true. PLEASE LET IT BE FAKE.
WHY WON'T ANYONE CONFIRM THIS, GDI.
TMZ IS THE ONLY ONE REPORTING THE DEATH, NEEDS CONFIRMATION FIRSTPOTENTIAL CONFIRMATION? OH GOD I HOPE NOT
ETA AGIAN, VIA TWITTER: According to @FSBigBob KTLA, KCBS, CNN, and MSNBC are still reporting MJ is alive.
EVERYTHING IS SLOW I AM IN PERMA CAPSLOCK.
ETA:
Pop star Michael Jackson was pronounced dead by doctors this afternoon after arriving at a hospital in a deep coma, city and law enforcement sources told The Times.
Holy fucking shit, he's dead.
;_; for reals. No, really. :'(
MSNBC, NBC, CBS, among others confirm death. CNN, Fox...
I am not even kidding when I say it was a dream of mine to see him in concert. I am so sad, I don't even know what to say or do right now.
LJ is still down, wiki is nutso, Twitter is ROBUST LIKE WHOA. And, omg, radio stations are only playing Michael.
ETA:
I'm guessing they fixed LJ by suspending ONTD. Which is now back up, comments disabled.
WAY TO STAY CLASSY ENTERTAINMENT TONIGHT:

3:17PM - Gundam 00 Recs?
Since eljay is down, I figured I'd ask a favour of any Gundam 00 fans who aren't currently mourning the possible death of Michael Jackson:
Big, fandom favourite pairings scare me ever since I got into TW and read some J/I fic that gave me hives. So I'm looking for recommendations of really, really good - you guessed it - Tieria/Lockon fic. I'd love long or short, fluff or tearjerkers, and ( spoiler )
I've combed the kink meme, but I like a little more psychological/emotional element with my porn, so it wasn't quite satisfying.
ADDITIONALLY! If anyone can direct me to really, really good Ribbons/Tieria, I will give you my firstborn (Of course, I can't have kids, but the thought is there).
Thank you!
