His legacy, Michael Jackson, will live on forever

It was 7.30 in the morning when I was at work, I saw an article printed out, on a piece of A4 paper. I read on, and I was so stunned when I read it. It was the passing of Michael Jackson. Never have I thought was real, I thought it was just a rumour, or a prank.

For decades now, he has contributed to the entertainment industry today and he was so influential that he was declared as "The King of Pop." He was a true performer, an incredible icon. I idolised him when I was growing up. Not that he is not good later on, but I stopped idolising artists, but I still admire him for his legacy, for his hardwork, his gift and everything that he has, besides him being obsessed with plastic surgery. He is a real inspirational artist.

Today, putting aside the differences, let all us put our hands together, expressing the sorrow and sadness, offering deepest condolences. The news was really tragical and devastating. It's a great loss to the world, with his upcoming global tour, just crashed.

In conclusion, perhaps, legends die early. Elvis Presley, John Lennon, Bruce Lee, Heath Ledger and now, Michael Jackson. All barely made to 50 and MJ is the only one. Some could not even make it to 30.

However, we should be glad that we are here, the same time as he was, in able to enjoy his music, his performance. Thank You for giving us the opportunity. There are just too many good things that will never come to an end. But I shall make this as simple as I can, to give a minute of silent in respect to the dead.

His legacy is unparallelled and will live on forever. He will always be missed, particularly to the entertainment industry. His music and MJ will always be here, no matter which century it is.
