Michael Jackson and Farrah Fawcett have died today, as I'm sure you have heard by now. And I'm in shock. I was following Farrah's tragic battle with cancer, and was saddened but not surprised to hear of her passing. My heart goes out to her friends and family watching a loved one go through something like that is one of the worst things that can happen to a person. She was a legend and she will be missed.
Michael Jackson's death came as huge shock to me, like everyone else. It's so strange to think that this man, who changed the face of music and revolutionized the art of music videos, is gone. Admittedly, I was never a huge MJ fan, but when I think of his songs I know, I like them all. I particularly like The Way You Make Me Feel. Thriller is probably the most influential music video - I know that my own heartthrobs, the Backstreet Boys, emulated the epic dance with their own Backstreet's Back. He truly was the King of Pop. There is no one that comes close to what he has achieved and what he has inspired in others. He, too, was and legend and will be missed.
