This is so shocking! I remember he was the biggest thing on the planet back in the early '80s when his "Thriller" album came out.

RIP, Jacko.

I remember when going to see Gremlins with my mom and brother at the local mall. Before we saw the movie, we were watching this Michael Jackson impersonation contest. There must have been a thousand people watching.

R.I.P.

I don't believe he's ever been here. Mods, could you move this to the OTF?

No, it was Dokdo he tried to buy. Japan was all for it, but Korea had to go and scupper the deal.

It's also shocking how serious the Koreans are taking MJ's sad death. Everyone is wearing white gloves and face masks. Laughing
