One of music’s most successful and influential artists, Michael Jackson died earlier today in Los Angeles at the age of 50, the L.A. County coroner's office confirms. No cause of death is available yet. During his nearly half-century career, Jackson recorded a series of pop classics as part of the Jackson 5 and then became a massive solo star. His 1982 album Thriller has been certified platinum 28 times in the U.S. and is the best-selling original collection ever released.

Jackson was born in Gary, Ind., on Aug. 29, 1958, and by the age of 6 the prodigiously talented singer and dancer was performing alongside his brothers. The Jackson 5 signed to Motown in 1968 and released a string of huge hits including “ABC” and “I Want You Back.” Jackson entered the charts as a solo artist in 1972 with the song “Ben,” and in 1978 he appeared in the big screen musical The Wiz alongside Diana Ross. The following year, his album Off The Wall established Jackson as a solo superstar. Yet, even the success of that release would be dwarfed by Thriller, which included a raft of global smashes, including “Billie Jean,” “Beat It,” and “Wanna Be Startin’ Somethin’.”

Jackson followed up Thriller with 1987’s Bad, which itself eventually sold in the region of 30 million copies worldwide. But the star’s public profile was badly damaged in the '90s when he was accused of child sex abuse, and in recent years he had become an extremely reclusive figure. Despite his reputation as one of pop’s greatest dancers and all-round in-concert showman, he also effectively abandoned touring. However, Jackson had planned to play a series of dates in London, starting next month.

While his personal life often attracted criticism and controversy, the oft-dubbed King of Pop’s influence on the musical realm is unarguable. That influence was demonstrated in 2008 when Kanye West, will.i.am, Fergie, and Akon all contributed to the remixes featured on the 25th anniversary reissue of Thriller. In his long career Jackson also worked with some of pop’s most talented artists, including both Paul McCartney and Thriller producer Quincy Jones.

Michael Jackson is dead

VANCOUVER - Michael Jackson has died at 50, the Los Angeles coroner's office confirmed Thursday.

The pop superstar was given CPR by paramedics in the ambulance that responded to the medical emergency.

The ambulance arrived at his L.A. mansion after receiving a 911 call just after noon.

His sister, pop star LaToya, ran in the hospital sobbing after Jackson was pronounced dead, the web site TMZ reports. He had gone into a deep coma after the cardiac arrest.

"The King of Pop" was in rehearsals for a massive concert agenda at London's O2 Arena, where he was scheduled to perform at 50 sold-out shows starting on July 13.

Joe Jackson, Michael Jackson's father, told EOnline the family was informed that the singing star has been taken to hospital. The family is reportedly gathering at the deceased singer's bedside.

A Los Angeles Fire Department spokesman said that Jackson wasn't breathing when emergency workers arrived at 12:26 p.m. Thursday, The Times reported on its website.

Parademics performed CPR and took Jackson to the UCLA Medical Centre.

After years of bad press regarding his trial and acquittal on child molestation charges, Jackson was hoping the O2 concerts would signal a comeback.

The Times reported the pop icon was living in a Bel-Air mansion and was in rehearsal for the shows. It said he was being funded by two billionaires to ensure the success of the venture.

Jackson is in massive debt, and was hoping the shows would restart his career with a world tour, new album and movies.

The O2 concerts have attracted some 750,000 fans.

RollingStone reported that for the concerts, Jackson was seeking a children’s choir that knew sign language and was “exactly equal” in racial diversity.

Word of Jackson’s passing has spread online, already garnering tributes. Former Barenaked Ladies frontman Stephen Page has Twittered on Jackson “you saved a very shy and awkward 12 year old boy in 1983. Thank you.”

Michael, once married to Lisa Marie Presley, daughter of Elvis, is survived by three children: Michael Joseph Jackson, Jr., Paris Michael Katherine Jackson and Prince "Blanket" Michael Jackson II.
