Pop star Michael Jackson was pronounced dead today after paramedics found him in a coma at his Bel-Air mansion, city and law enforcement sources told The Times.
Los Angeles Fire Department Capt. Steve Ruda told The Times that paramedics responded to a 911 call from the home. When they arrived, Jackson was not breathing.
The paramedics performed CPR and took Jackson to UCLA Medical Center, Ruda said. Hundreds of reporters gathered at the hospital awaiting word on his condition. The sources, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said family members rushed to Jackson’s bedside, where he was in a deep coma.
The circumstances of Jackson’s death remain unclear. Law enforcement sources said that Los Angeles Police Department robbery-homicide detectives have opened an investigation into the death, though they stressed that there is no evidence of criminal wrongdoing.
The detectives plan to interview relatives, friends and Jackson’s doctors to try to figure out what happened. The L.A. County coroner’s office will determine a cause of death. A Los Angeles Fire Department source told The Times that Jackson was in full cardiac arrest when rescue units arrived.
A doctor was in the house performing CPR on Jackson, said the source who asked not to be identified because he was not authorized to speak to the media. Paramedics were called to a home in the 100 block of Carolwood Drive off Sunset Boulevard.
Jackson rented the Bel-Air home -- described as a French chateau built in 2002 with seven bedrooms, 13 bathrooms, 12 fireplaces and a theater -- for $100,000 a month. The home is about a six-minute drive from UCLA Medical Center. Jackson has three children -- sons Prince Michael 7, and Michael Joseph Jackson Jr., 12, and daughter Paris Michael Katherine, 11.
Jackson, 50, died as he was attempting a comeback after years of tabloid headlines, most notably his trial and acquittal on child molestation charges.
In May, The Times reported that Jackson had rented the Bel-Air residence and was rehearsing for a series of 50 sold-out shows in London's O2 Arena. Jackson had won the backing of two billionaires to get the so-called "King of Pop" back on stage.
His backers envisioned the shows at AEG's O2 as an audition for a career rebirth that could have ultimately encompassed a three-year world tour, a new album, movies, a Graceland-like museum, musical revues in Las Vegas and Macau, and even a "Thriller" casino. Such a rebound could have wiped out Jackson's massive debt.

Hi there everyone! Im fine here in KL. I reach here yesterday (16th June 2009). I met new friends and they all kind. Okey, talk about my journey from Kuching to KL. 1st, I woke up around 530am cause we people have to be in the airport at 9. After taking my bath and breakfast, I periksa my bag for the last time. Yalah who knows got stuff tertinggal. Huhu. After everything sorah boleh belah, me and my grandparents belah to Tmn Pasir. My dad SAPOS to send me later together with Irene. My mom went to the office at 740am. So I have to say goodbye to her before I go. I was sad actually. But I have to act like nothing’s going on. The 3 of us went to the airport at 8am. Gosh. My little bro, Edric still can pusing around me! nang sah nya sik tau pa2! Terlalu berat bagiku untuk melangkah meninggalkan rumah & keluarga tercinta. Yalah pa kan daya jodohtiada. Cheh…
Hah! Talk about journey to the airport. Kak Fiona msj me when we people reach bt10. She told me the flight to KL has been delayed until 3pm. WTF?! I was so angry with that stupid AirAsia. Ngada jak now everyone can fly! Taik- huh. Never mind lah, the 4 of us (including Irene) went to the airport terus cause my dad wanted to book his tickets to Miri. The 3 of us breakfast in McD while waiting for my dad. Suddenly when he came back, he said that he can’t send me later cause he has to packing his bags. Okey fine. We went back to Serian around 10am. When we reach there, me and Irene went to SMK TARAT to transit the car. Hakhak! Blom habis transit. Sambung gik gi MDS! Then! Haha! Here’s a story for you guys. When I came into the office, suddenly I saw a figure [a man actually] behind the tiang. He look exactly like SHIT. Then he agak we people and to Irene.
“ra gapih mu Rin?” [where u want to go Rin].
“aku ra nganted tik ndeg airport matik” [hantar dia pergi lapangan terbang].
“owh. Asih tik sei?” [who is this actually?].
“Fiffy’s bestfriend bah tik” [ini kwn baik Fiffy].
“anih tundah ne da KL?” [what is she doing there in KL?]
“ra nyambung belajar ne aih” [sambung belajar di sana]
“huh? Skulah anih cheh?” [what school?]
“KLMU” [KLMU]
“swasta en yah?” [private right?]
“ye manih cheh?” [Ya kenapa?]
“biek sei. Mahar! Menih mu kaie ngampan intake Dec Uitm nah? Sien nak murah!” [not good bah that KLMU. Why don’t u wait for the UiTM dec intake? That one will be more cheaper]
“nevermine, babuk ne spon bah” [takpa datuk dia belanja bah]
“asih babuk mu? Ganan ne?” [who is her grandpa? & what is his name?]
Kring* (a phonecall from my grandpa)
“Hello?”
“aku ngampan mu da sapa” [saya tunggu di luar]
Cobih! That silly idiot stupid dumb man meruduk gi depan pintu seraya berkata
“mana datuk dia mana datuk dia mana mana??”
SAKAI right?
Skip.! Okey ckp psl airport pulak. We reach KIA at 1.03pm. I sumbat my binatang straight away. Few minutes later, Kak Fiona sent me a message said that she’s wearing black and white shirt and if I wanted to look for her, just go infront. In KIA, I met my 3 new friends named Mira, Azila & Luciana @ LULU! And our flight has been delayed until 4.10pm. WTF lah this AirAsia. Me, auntie, Irene & my grandma went to KFC before I cabut from Sarawak. gik pun toin ku pilai bih! Aluak ku man tubi bah. Mkn pnya mkn, jam sudah sampai kita harus say good bye. Bagus ayat. =D Kak Fiona gave us a short briefing before the 6 of us (including the soldiers) berangkat. Masa untuk ungaa sudah tiba! But don’t worry saia bukan jiwang mahh. Saia ini kasi rock punya! AirAsia yang menyakitkan itu akhirnya menerbangkan dirinya bak kata nya dirik mpun “now everyone can fly!”. Finally, we reach KLIA LCCT terminal at 5.50pm. amen! But the problem is, our buses haven’t menampakkan bayang2 yet. So, we have to wait. Wait and wait until 8pm in LCCT. Huh. So damn tired me. owh ya, lupa mok padah. There’s a girl from Indonesia, seated next to Lulu, asked for our phone. The reasons are “my hp low bet, my hp no more prepaid card, no public phone available in LCCT and bla bla bla”. We didn’t pass our phone to that girl until she berambus. Who cares.. KL bah nie. Macam –macam saja bulih belaku! The silly bus came and fetch us at 9. And sepanjang perjalanan menuju puncak, opps! Menuju hostel, mekrank tangga TV wok! Ceta Perancis.. :D nok paling syiok banget nya, stop jak bus di tepi. Uncle tambi ya madah “k sampai sudah”. BAH Lah!!! Tarkazut banar ku liat depan mata ku nie, ada anu kondominium tinggiiii giler! Bukan sakai tapi urang ucp hostel bah kan? Well, hostel KLMU bah. Hehehe. Talk about hostel, there’s a man wearing white shirt spread us into few groups and gve us the keys straight away. So now, my new home will be here. At BLOCK B, 9th floor room no 15. The 8 of us was too excited after we received our house key. OMG! So damn big and awesome! But sad, no mozek. Huhu. Only in the kitchen, balkoni, and bathroom jak. it’s okey bahh.. the Sarawakians took the master room complete with bathroom and beds. The KLMU will provide us iron with iron board, rice cooker, kitchen’s stuffs, cupboard and so on.
Talk about my roommates, they are all kind, funny and the most important one, crazy! Hehehe. And started from yesterday, I have my new name d. (SASAK) in Limbang means sakit hati tahap dewa.
So here’s my housem8’s names :
Fatimah – Kak Tim (Sandakan)
Luciana – Lulu (Kuching)
Ann – Nn (Sandakan) (pindah to Ampang)
Lydia – Lily (Sandakan) (pindah to Ampang)
Athmira – Mira (Kuching)
Joanna – Bibie (Sandakan)
