Michael Jackson, the once triumphant, then disgraced King of Pop, died today at the age of 50, after suffering a heart attack.
The singer, 50, was pronounced dead soon after he arrived at an LA hospital at 2:26pm (7.26am) local time after reportedly suffering a cardiac arrest, but not a heart attack.
Jackson, who had been preparing for his comeback tour, was rushed to the UCLA Medical Centre shortly before 12.30pm local time.
Michael is survived by three children _ Michael Joseph Jackson, Jr, Paris Michael Katherine Jackson and Prince “Blanket” Michael Jackson II.

Michael Jackson, who made his initial mark in the pop world as the precocious lead singer of Jackson 5, only to reach unprecedented creative and commercial heights as the pre-eminent solo performer of the late 20th century, has died in a Los Angeles hospital. Reports say that the self-styled King of Pop went into cardiac arrest in his L.A. home and was unable to be revived by paramedics. Jackson was 50.

Born in Gary, Ind., on Aug. 29, 1958, Jackson, even from an early age, possessed a once-in-a-generation combination of prodigious singing and innovative dancing talent coupled with a classic showman’s knack for performance. Starting with the 1969 No. 1 smash ‘I Want You Back’ at age 11, and proceeding throughout the ’70s, ’80s and early ’90s, Jackson, either with his family group or as a solo performer, was a constant presence at the top of the singles and album charts. His career high point, 1982’s blockbuster ‘Thriller,’ spawned four Top 10 hits and has been cited as the best-selling album in the world.
The latter years of Jackson’s life were beset by controversies, including multiple cosmetic surgeries, financial difficulties and accusations of improprieties with children. At the time of his death, he was in the process of mounting a series of 50 comeback perfomances at London’s 02 Arena, which were to commence in July. Despite his eccentricities, it is hoped that Jackson will be remembered for the gifts he shared with us rather than the troubles he had or may have caused.

Please accept our heartfelt sympathy and condolence on the very sad death . In this dark hour of sadness no human words can console the fans. May god grant his souls eternal peace in heaven.
HIS MAGIC VOICE WILL ALWAYS REMAIN IN OUR HEART FOREVER
