I have been left shocked and shattered by the news of Jacko’s untimely demise this morning in L.A. Altough there have been some conflicting reports about Jacko’s failing health in recent times, I felt they were only rumors. His death leaves a huge void in the world of pop music which I fear may never be filled. I’m in mournin now and can’t quite bring myself to reconcile with this morbid news. Goodbye Jacko n I wish ur soul rests in peace up in the heavens!
Hey Don’t forget about Farrah Fawcett now. She was a total icon too. That’s 2 major entertainment icons passing away 5 miles apart and almost 5 hours apart exactly. Someone cue the Twilight zone music……..
