TMZ: Michael Jackson - Cardiac Arrest - Edit: he has died

#1 Postby southerngale » Thu Jun 25, 2009 4:10 pm

Michael Jackson - Cardiac Arrest

We've just learned Michael Jackson was taken by ambulance to a hospital in Los Angeles ... and we're told it was cardiac arrest and that paramedics administered CPR in the ambulance.

He was picked up at his home around 20 minutes ago -- we're told his mother is on the way to visit him.

UPDATE: The 911 call came in at 12:21PM at his Holmby Hills home in L.A.

UPDATE: A Jackson family member tells TMZ Michael is in "really bad shape" and the brothers are headed to UCLA.

UPDATE: We just got off the phone with Joe Jackson, Michael's dad, who says "he is not doing well."

I think it's true(based on the confirmed reports he wasn't breathing). Probably be all over the news soon. TMZ has gotten pretty reliable recently.

Say what you want about him, say what you want about what he may or may not have done, but the fact that cant be denied, he was a GOD in his prime. His impact on music stands up there with names like the Beatles or Frank Sinatra.

R.I.P
