MICHAEL JACKSON - JACKSON HOSPITALISED AFTER CARDIAC ARREST - REPORT
JACKSON HOSPITALISED AFTER CARDIAC ARREST - REPORT

MICHAEL JACKSON is reportedly in hospital after suffering a heart attack.
The Thriller superstar's aides frantically called an ambulance to come to Jackson's Holmby Hills mansion in Los Angeles earlier today (25Jun09), according to TMZ.com.
Reports suggest the singer's condition was so bad, medics were forced to administer CPR en-route to a nearby hospital - to keep him alive.
Jackson's worried family members are allegedly rushing to his bedside.
Earlier this month (Jun09), family insider Arthur Phoenix told WENN the superstar was in a bad way and should not be considering a 50-concert run in London, scheduled to start in July (09).
He insisted the concerts would not happen, stating, "Michael is not mentally, physically or spiritually ready for these shows. There's something missing in his soul... It's over! There are family members who feel the same way but they're afraid to speak."
Phoenix fears the pressure of the comeback and the upcoming shows have taken their toll on the 50 year old.

He was picked up at his home around 20 minutes ago -- we're told his mother is on the way to visit him.

UPDATE: The 911 call came in at 12:21PM at his Holmby Hills home in L.A.

UPDATE: A Jackson family member tells TMZ Michael is in "really bad shape" and the brothers are headed to UCLA.

UPDATE: We just got off the phone with Joe Jackson, Michael's dad, who says "he is not doing well."

Dam shame but for years he's been on a decline, it sounds rather critical at the moment.   Say what you will about him (gossip or factual) but he is a genius to the music industry & has given us much joy thru his arts.   Prayers with the Jackson family   an angelic monkey

I haven't seen it anywhere else either.  I hope that he pulls through..

I feel he was a very abused child, who grew up to be a confused adult.  All the while able to be a musical genuis and gave so much to this world and his fans.  Eccentric..yes..but he brought a lot of hope and musical talent along with him.

A source tells us Jackson was dead when paramedics arrived.

Once at the hospital, the staff tried to resuscitate him but he was completely unresponsive.

We're told one of the staff members at Jackson's home called 911.

La Toya ran in the hospital sobbing after Jackson was pronounced dead.

Michael is survived by three children: Michael Joseph Jackson, Jr., Paris Michael Katherine Jackson and Prince "Blanket" Michael Jackson II.

Well, I grew up with the Jackson Five. I know he had a hard childhood into adulthood. But I'm having a hard time with this comparing him to Elvis and someone on CNN commented it's like having the President die. Come on, I think he was a pedophile that had the money to cover it. That's truly a shame. He music was great, but there was a dark side too.

He was so damn skinny, I'm wondering if he was bulimic too. Wreaks havoc on the heart.

I always loved the Jackson 5 when I was a kid.  Later on, I loved Michael's music.  I always felt sorry for him though...even though he was a superstar, he seemed lonely.  RIP, Michael.   an angelic monkey
