like tmz or not they have moles everywhere, that's how they know where all the celebs are..not surprising that they got this news first..when a celeb shows up at a hospital they get the call
also not surprising that people find it hard to take them seriously sometimes |
I agree. While I may not believe them about "who's dating who", nor do I really give a ...when it comes to something as tragic as this, I believe them. That's where I first confirmed Heath Ledger's death. I've never heard TMZ to erroneously report someone dead. |

No one said he's more valuable than any other life,. |
People don't say these things directly but its visible.
Its just sad that this is such a bigger news over other stuff currently happening around the world, people getting shot and killed because they are trying to fight for their freedom of speech.
Anyways, it sucks that MJ died but yeah... |

I definitely see what you're saying, and don't deny the fact that many people glorify celebrities. But to play the devil's advocate to what you're saying, just b/c there are people getting shot and killed because they're trying to fight for their freedom of speech means that a celebrity's death is too trivial to be shocked about and care about? And in this case, it's not just a celebrity, MJ was a living legend who arguably made one of the biggest impacts on music history to date. I know that you don't think his death is trivial, but I just saying. |

That i realize but isn't everyone updating there Facebook/ Twitter status and texting everyone you know because he died kind of ridiculous .... ?
tbh i don't think thats mourning, if your a fan grieve but dont make a spectacle of yourself
ps.
"Twitter is over capacity.
Too many tweets! Please wait a moment and try again."
I think this must have to do with MJ |

Yes, you do have a point too. In terms of music history I agree. |

Very sad news indeed :(
PS. Like Lisa said, TMZ is actually a very reliable source of information.
They have people everywhere, have the money to buy all of the photos & info, and have the reputation of being the legitimate source of celebrity gossip.
