Jackson Fans Reportedly Commit Suicide After Star’s Death
According to the founder of an online community of Michael Jackson fans, 12 devotees of the King of Pop have apparently attempted or committed suicide since his death. Gary Taylor, who runs MJJcommunity.com, is tracking the reports coming in from around the world, and claims that the group includes a Russian fan who has impersonated Jackson since the age of 9. Pável Talaláyev was found bleeding in his Moscow home just hours after news of the singer’s death leaked. Said a paramedic on the scene, “He was in a terrible state and kept on saying: ‘It’s all the same to me. I’m going to kill myself. It’s the worst tragedy of my life and I don’t want to live any more. I don’t know why you saved my life, I want to be with him’.”
Taylor says of the suicide attempts: “It is a serious situation that these people are going through but Michael Jackson would never want this. He would want them to live.” In the video above, he and Jesse Jackson reach out to grieving fans who may be considering taking their lives in the wake of Michael’s death.

No need to kill your self over a pop star. It was his time to go, i think that it was kinda crazy and outta of their minds to do thing like that. But its them not me so idc. But like i said it was his time to go and not yours so no need to do something stupid over a guy that you only KNEW from FAME and RADIO and TELEVISION!!!!!! He was a good singer but….WHY KILL YOUR SELF over him?????
……Pointless i think.

He might a music lengand,but god will still punish those who comment crimes aginst our childrien. And all you people are willing to foregive a man just because it died !!!!! Reba, said we should remember all the good he done and not the bad, but want about all kids or the 1 ,2 ,3 ,4 ,5 . kids he has hurt. Cause the only reason he wasn”t convicted , was his money!!!!!! YOU PEOPLE ARE SICK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

wow!!! this is crazy! this is a sickness for someone who is human just like everyone else. not a GOD… The true king who died for us, is Jesuschrist, and it is to he, that we deserve to worship and live for… plus, am pretty sure michael would really be disappointed at this people doing this such things…He also loved life, and everyone to have a great happy one…
