What a shock to come home last night to the news that Michael Jackson had suffered cardiac arrest, and had been reported dead by, at the time, TMZ. As TMZ isn't always the most reliable source, I waitied for the confirmation from CNN, although watching the airial view of the UCLA Medical Centre where Jackson was, seeing all of the L.A.P.D. cars blocking off the roadways and entrances told the story. It was evident that he was probably gone. At 6:26 pm (Atlantic Time) he was. And fans, friends and family members have been flodding Twitter and other networking sites ever since. It's amazing to comprehend the success the "King of Pop" achieved, selling 750 million albums worldwide. Whether you loved him or disliked him, there's no doubt he affected us all in one way or another. With all of his legal woes, and negative press and now his death...do you think the world has had enough of Michael Jackson? He is now currently the hottest artist on Amazon.com...having the top 15 sellers of the day, so apparently not. In fact, I'm sure starting today, he will be bigger than he ever was.
