Michael Jackson died today, only 50 yrs old.I'm not even really an MJ fan, but it's so weird to think that he's dead. Like, he's been a steady fixture of American pop culture for such a long time that I sort of forgot he was human. So his sudden death is really sad, whether or not you like him or his music.
I mean, he was great in the Jackson Five, and totally dominated the 80s- stuff like Thriller is just iconic.
Seriously, I couldn't have cared less about him yesterday, but now that he's gone it feels like a loss.
Idk.
also: Farah Fawcett died today too. wtf, entertainment industry, wtf?

Ditto. Although the song Thriller itself was way too scary for me! Vincent Price ftw!
Kinda depressing that we realise just how much he was part of our lives until now.
RIP Michael Jackson
