He was acquitted of all charges. He lost his wealth in legal battles and eccentric shopping. Coming to the skin dyeing, its all rumors. He was diagnosed with vitiligo in 1990(skin losing melanin and turning white). Most importantly try to remember the good things about him in his demise. He was a genius: Composer, Singer, Dancer, Performer, global celebrity. All extraordinary talents combined into one. He is a legend and has inspired choreographers, dancers, singers, artists, kids you name it. People started taking singing, dancing seriously as a career after watching him. Websites like Twitter, LA times crashed when people jammed the websites on his death. Even google, aol, yahoo slowed down under the barrage of people flooding in to pay their respects to MJ online. He is the greatest celebrity in this century and the King of pop. No one even comes close. Mayhe find freedom and happiness in his death. We have lost the greatest entertainer in the world. He is far greater than the media hyped trash like Curt Cobain and Princess Diana who just achieved greatness because they died an untimely death. To maintain a record and career like that for over 3 decades is no mean feat. A child prodigy and a legendary entertainer is what MJ will be remembered for

Dear Gokul, The great erudition of MJ is of a rare kind and imposing; however, erudition unaccompanied by at least one-tenth measure of grace is surely worthless

if MJ was God why did people neglect that God for 15 yrs? he was an icon alright in the 80s...lets just stop at that.
Let us pay tribute to this star performer who not only performed and entertained us for decades but made the music world scale new heights. As controversial as his personal life may be, the sheer genius and talent which MJ posessed, could not be taken away. He is and will be a true legend in the music world for years to come. May God rest his soul in peace.

Whether you were a fan of his music or not, one has to respect the enormous talent of this man. He was worshipped and adored by millions upon millions of people throughout his life. The pressures that this fact alone must bring to an individual are incomprehensible to all of us "common folk". While personally not a fan myself, I am saddened that the world has lost yet another brilliantly shining star long before his time. Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family.
It was only yesterday I showed the videos of Michael Jackson to my 6 yr old daughter...I told her how great a dancer, singer and an entertainer he was. I was surprised when my daughter said..." Papa! every film stars are jus copying him." She became an instant fan of him. She watched all his videos again and again on the youtube. It was then I realized how he is able to even impact a totally new generation.
I grew up with in the generation who admired Michael Jackson in his peak........u ask any top dancers or artist in India.....Prabhu Deva, Hrithick, Javed or anybody.....they all grew up influenced by him and in turn has helped them in their career in someway. World over we could take lots of examples. He conveyed wonderful inspirational messages to the world through his music. He is truly a legend which has brought changes to many in a big way. No body in the future can never ever beat his record sales or can be another like him.
I only wished the media and people stop tarnishing his image with assumptions. I feel only a shallow minded person would misunderstand him.
His legend will live on and you will see more of new age artist inspired by him. May his soul rest in peace.

MJ never dies..hes only jus reborn in another perhaps a better world...
Michael Jackson was a blessing to the world in more ways than one. He made this world a better place with his extraordinary talent, huge humanitarian work and wonderfl being! Thesleaze-hungry media did the best it could to shadow his life with their lies, but the Light of Michael Jackson's being shall shine forever, paving the way for all people to an even better world of Michael's dream where love, innocence, purity, integrity, honesty, generosity will be admired!

Murali bhai... He is listed in the guiness book of records as the only person supporting the maximum numbers of charities worldwide; 39 in total. That's really huge.
His "Heal the World foundation" has helped a large number of children worldwide ...
