Actually he did screw up his life. People bothering him for his money has nothing to do with anything... :face: But still, his songs were great....

His nose fell off before he died.

Apparently they cut him open (autopsy) to see if he really died of a cardiac arrest or not.

My Hometown Newspaper wrote:: He
was the king of pop and a troubled soul; a pop-culture icon who
recorded the top-selling album of all time before allegations of sexual
misconduct tarnished his reputation forever.

It's simply not possible to overstate Michael Jackson's
impact on popular culture in the 1980s. His 1982 album, "Thriller," is
the best-selling album of all time worldwide, with sales of more than
100 million units, and Jackson's influence continues to loom large over
the worlds of pop, hip-hop and R&B. He was a gifted singer, a
talented songwriter and a flashy dancer, and no one in the early '80s
made better use of what was then a new format — the music video.

Not only was Jackson the first black artist to land a video in rotation
on MTV, the 14-minute monster-movie clip for "Thriller" topped the
cable channel's 1999 retrospective of the Top 100 music videos. It also
won a Grammy and sold more than 9 million copies, making it the
best-selling music video of all time.

"A major strand of our cultural DNA has left us," musician John Mayer said via the social networking service Twitter. "I think we'll mourn his loss as well as the loss of ourselves as children listening to 'Thriller' on the record player."

Mayer, a 31-year-old Fairfield native, was one of millions of
youngsters who came of age listening to the blend of R&B, funk and
rock on Jackson's opus, which featured vocals from Paul McCartney and a guitar solo from Eddie Van Halen.

Jackson got an early start in show business, fronting the Jackson 5 — a
group comprising him and his brothers Jackie, Tito, Jermaine and Marlon
— when he was just 10 (although his age at the time was given as 8).
After eight Top 10 pop singles and 18 Top 10 R&B singles, Jackson
left the family band to expand the solo career that he had begun with
1972's "Got To Be There," which came out when he was 12.

His first solo album as an adult, 1979's "Off the Wall," was his true
breakthrough, showcasing an artist of such depth and talent that there
seemed to be no limit to what he could accomplish. "Thriller" merely
confirmed that impression three years later, and suddenly pop culture
revolved around Jackson.

His one white sparkly glove, black loafers with white socks, the
zippered red-leather jacket — all of them became instantly recognizable
trademarks, and his introduction of the moonwalk during a televised
Motown anniversary concert in 1983 was surely the most electrifying
musical moment on TV since the Beatles played "The Ed Sullivan Show."

If "Thriller" made him a star in the United States,
Jackson's 1987 follow-up, "Bad," catapulted him to worldwide
superstardom. He toured for the first time without his brothers, and
was greeted by screaming hordes of fans everywhere he went.

After the release of his "Dangerous" album in 1991, though, Jackson's
music was increasingly overshadowed by a series of bizarre events,
including drug addiction, accusations that he sexually abused a
13-year-old boy (Jackson settled a civil suit out of court and was
never charged) and his brief marriage to Lisa Marie Presley, epitomized in the public consciousness by the awkward kiss the couple shared at the 1994 MTV Video Music Awards.

He continued to release albums: The first volume of his hits
compilation "HIStory" came out in 1995, with a second showing up in
2001, about the same time that he released the studio album
"Invincible." By then, though, the singer's music was something of a
sideshow.

Jackson was accused of sexual abuse again in 2003 after a British
television documentary called into question his relationship with
another 13-year-old boy. This time Jackson was charged, and although he
was found not guilty after a lengthy trial, the negative publicity and
expense prompted Jackson to move out of the United States.

Despite banking hundreds of millions of dollars from album sales and
concert tours, Jackson's expenses exceeded his income to the point
when, in 2006, he shuttered Neverland Ranch, his private amusement
park, to save money.

Earlier this year, Jackson announced plans to perform a string of
concerts at London's O2 Arena. What had started as 10 shows blossomed
into 50, all of which sold out.

Jackson's death came as a shock, judging by reaction online and on various social networking sites.

"I'm devastated over this but we all have memories," Ahmir "?uestlove" Thompson, drummer for Philadelphia
hip-hop band the Roots, said in a series of posts on Twitter. "I just
hope that he will get due justice in all the press memorials and
whatnot. I know he was mired in controversy the last decade of his life
but I think it's time we let him rest in peace and learn to separate
the art and the artist."

Indeed, despite his troubles, Jackson was a noted philanthropist,
co-writing the 1984 hit "We Are the World," which raised millions of
dollars for the USA for Africa famine-relief effort. He was also once
listed in the Guinness Book of World Records for his support of 39
charities.

Umm... It does have something to do with it because people were sueing him when he didn't do anything. And his nose was "falling off" because he broke it and had to get surgery. :roll: And tell me again... How did he screw his life up?

I do too...I think he had a major overdose on medicine. That's just my guess.

No offence but you may be offending people.

I'm certainly not impressed at the little jokes about him. Despite what he's done or has been accused of you should still have respect.

He was a legend and a genious in music.
