It was sad enough to hear of Farrah Fawcett's passing this morning, but this . . .
Michael Jackson has died of cardiac arrest at the age of 50.
Regardless of what he became later in life, he was truly one of my first favorite performers of all time. Another supremely talented star, with an all too tragic end.
May he rest in peace.
ETA: Larry King just made an excellent point: by next week so many people are going to make the tabloids explode with their horror stories and "newly revealed" scandals about Michael Jackson. For the brief time that we have between now and then, it's best to remember him for the good things that he did - he was an undeniable talent and gave so much to the world of music.
