Michael Jackson rushed to hospital

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) – Pop star Michael Jackson has been rushed to a Los Angeles-area hospital by fire department paramedics, the Los Angeles Times reported on Thursday.

The newspaper said paramedics went to the singers home and found he was not breathing. They performed cardiopulmonary resuscitation at the scene before taking him to the UCLA Medical Center hospital.

No further details were immediately available.

We've already had 2 this week. I'm praying that this won't be #3.

The news here just said that he had a heart attack and that he's not doing well and that family is on the way to the hospital.

I said a prayer for him just now. Hang in there.

He has had some problems and been accused of some bad things, but he's an amazing entertainer.

Unbelieveable.

What a day. I thought the Sammy Davis Jr/Jim Henson day was huge. This beats it by a long shot.

I have a friend at TMZ; he said they have someone there who's tight with the family and usually accurate.

Crazy that TMZ has the scoop before any of the broadcast news outlets make it official.

He was only 50 but what a 50 years. RIP mj!

I've decided I'm in denial and not buying it until CNN reports it.

I had a gigantic crush on him when I was 5. I had MJ stickers all over my bedroom mirror, the kind you got at the gas station with bubble gum.

I'm with you. Not to diss my friend at TMZ, but it's TMZ.
