Goodbye, Michael

Turning into a hell of a day for celebrities. Michael Jackson too has reportedly died today.

Entertainer Michael Jackson has died after being taken to a hospital on Thursday after suffering cardiac arrest, according to multiple reports including the Los Angeles Times and the Associated Press. CNN has not confirmed his death.

Jackson, 50, had been in a coma at the hospital, sources told CNN.

Brian Oxman, a Jackson family attorney, said he was told by brother Randy Jackson that Michael Jackson collapsed at his home in west Los Angeles Thursday morning.

Family members were told of the situation and were either at the hospital or en route, Oxman said.

Fire Capt. Steve Ruda told CNN a 911 call came in from a west Los Angeles residence at 12:21 p.m.

Ruda said Jackson was treated and transferred to the UCLA Medical Center.

Ironically, today happens to be my parents' birthday (yes, both of them, it's rather romantic and I'm convinced it's how they've stayed together for nearly 40 years now, it's not like they can forget each other's birthday.)

Beginnings and endings today.
