Michael Jackson,the self-anointed "King of Pop" who revolutionized music but whose legacy was marred by allegations of child molestation and bizarre behavior,died after suffering cardiac arrest Thursday.He was 50 years old and preparing for his final series of live performances.
The Los Angeles Fire Department was called to Jackson's residence at 12:26 p.m.P.T.,according to the Los Angeles Times.Paramedics performed CPR on Jackson,who was not breathing when they arrived at his home.He was rushed to LA Medical Center,just six miles from his home.
Lisa Marie Presley,the daughter of legendary rock and roll innovator and pop megastar Elvis Presley,was married to Jackson from 1994 to 1996.
"I am completely shocked and saddened by Michael's death.My heart goes out to his children and his family," said Presley in a statement.
Dame Elizabeth Taylor,who some would say was one of Jackson's closest friends,was "too devestated by the passing of her dear friend" to issue a statement,according to her publicist.
"For a long time he was unquestionably the most famous person on the planet," Jed Hilly,the executive director of the Americana Music Assocation,told ABCNews.com.
Chris Connelly,an ABC News contributor,was one of the last people to interview Jackson,and said today that the pop star was "determined to convey that he had greater things ahead of him."
"The word he spoke with the greatest emphasis was the 'More!' that he exclaimed when I asked if he could still do all his famous moves and hit all those notes at the age of 50," said Connelly of his August 2008 phone interview with Jackson.
Connelly asked Jackson if he had received his AARP membership,a question that garnered a laugh from the star.

After suffering cardiac arrest at his Los Angeles home on Thursday afternoon, Michael Jackson was pronounced dead at a hospital, marking a bizarre and tragic end to a 50-year life -- 45 years of which were spent as one of the world's most iconic popular entertainers.
Mr. Jackson was in a coma when he reached UCLA Medical Center, according to a person close to his family, and was dead before he could be brought to an operating room.
Mr. Jackson was in the midst of attempting to rehabilitate his career after several years' worth of controversy that saw him essentially stop performing or releasing new music. Even before a criminal trial on child-molestation charges that ended in acquittal in 2005, Mr. Jackson's career was in a holding pattern.
In May, concert promoter AEG Live announced that Mr. Jackson would perform a series of shows at its O2 arena in London. Demand for tickets proved to be enormous, and the run was eventually extended to 50 concerts, with hundreds of thousands of tickets sold. The dates were spread over several months, starting in early July and stretching well into 2010.
Mr. Jackson's agreement with AEG Live, owned by Denver billionaire Phil Anschutz, included an ambitious option to extend the concert series even further, adding dates throughout Europe, Asia and North America over three years or more. All told the tour could have earned him $400 million.

LOS ANGELES — Michael Jackson, the "King of Pop" who once moonwalked above the music world, died Thursday as he prepared for a comeback bid to vanquish nightmare years of sexual scandal and financial calamity. He was 50.
Jackson died at UCLA Medical Center after being stricken at his rented home in Holmby Hills. Paramedics tried to resuscitate him at his home for nearly three-quarters of an hour, then rushed him to the hospital, where doctors continued to work on him.
"It is believed he suffered cardiac arrest in his home. However, the cause of his death is unknown until results of the autopsy are known," his brother Jermaine said. Police said they were investigating, standard procedure in high-profile cases.
Jackson's death brought a tragic end to a long, bizarre, sometimes farcical decline from his peak in the 1980s, when he was popular music's premier all-around performer, a uniter of black and white music who shattered the race barrier on MTV, dominated the charts and dazzled even more on stage.
