The King of Pop dies at 50


Pop icon Michael Jackson has died of cardiac arrest after being taken to the hospital, CNN
reported.

Paramedics arrived at Jackson's Los Angeles home after a 911 call. According to Lt. Fred Corral, the Los Angeles County coroner, Jackson was pronounced dead at 2:26 pm. Jackson reportedly collapsed at home Thursday morning and was immediately taken to the hospital. He went to a coma after being transferred to UCLA Medical Center.

"At the medical center, every entrance to the emergency room was blocked by security guards. Even hospital staffers were not permitted to enter. A few people stood inside the waiting area, some of them crying," CNN reported.

Jackson, who has sold more that 750 million albums, has three children named Prince Michael I, Paris Michael, and Prince Michael II.
