it's such a shocking news to find out that the king of pop is no longer with us
the beloved superstar was pronounced death after suffering from cardiac arrest, sudden collapsed of heartbeat.
of course, this news made me felt so sad for almost a day! i mean, such a shame that one legend had to die in this beyond tragic way. i always figure this as "elvis-like death", don't ya think?
for someone as talented as michael, he shouldn't end his journey like this way. well, but drugs and everything stepped in and tragically, ruined his career, his music journey, his life. eventhough for the last couple of years he has been missing from the music buzz, but his legacy is still alive like the first time he performed. most of the music nowadays are influenced by him, mentioning names like justin timberlake, beyonce, britney spears.
ok not only that his death is shocking but also brings new controversy over who gets his 3 children, the really reason behind his death, the concert scheduled next july.
for me, MJ's a great artist whose music's influenced today's favorite music. and well, as for the controversy, we should leave em alone for a second and take some time to pay tribute to him, right?
well, this one is for sure, his death is beyond painful for all the people that knew him, here are some statements coming from the hollywood residence:
Justin Timberlake:
"I can't find the words right now to express how deeply saddened I am by Michael's passing," the pop-R&B hitmaker wrote. "We have lost a genius and a true ambassador of not only Pop music but of all music. He has been an inspiration to multiple generations and I will always cherish the moments I shared with him on stage and all of the things I learned about music from him and the time we spent together. My heart goes out to his family and loved ones."Beyonce:
Madonna(MJ's closest friend):"The incomparable Michael Jackson has made a bigger impact on music than any other artist in the history of music," the 27-year-old singer said. "He was magic. He was what we all strive to be. He will always be the King of Pop!
"Life is not about how many breaths you take, but about how many moments in life that take your breath away. For anyone who has ever seen, felt, or heard his art, we are all honored to have been alive in this generation to experience the magic of Michael Jackson. I love you Michael."
"I have always admired Michael Jackson. The world has lost one of the greats, but his music will live on forever! My heart goes out to his three children and other members of his family. God bless."
(Madonna also stated that she couldn't stop crying after hearing the news)
Brooke Shield (MJ's ex-lover):
"My heart is overcome with sadness for the devastating loss of my true friend Michael," the actress said.
"He was an extraordinary friend, artist and contributor to the world. I join his family and his fans in celebrating his incredible life and mourning his untimely passing."
Lisa Marie Presley (MJ's ex wife):
Paul Mccartney:
"I am so very sad and confused with every emotion possible. I am heartbroken for his children who I know were everything to him and for his family. This is such a massive loss on so many levels, words fail me,"
Britney Spears:"I feel privileged to have hung out and worked with Michael," read a statement on McCartney's website this morning. "He was a massively talented boy man with a gentle soul. His music will be remembered forever and my memories of our time together will be happy ones.
"I send my deepest sympathy to his mother and the whole family and to his countless fans all around the world."
"We were going to be on tour in Europe at the same time and I was going to fly in to see him. He has been an inspiration throughout my entire life and I'm devastated he's gone!"
