  新浪娱乐讯 当地时间6月25日14时26分(北京时间26日5时26分),美国流行天王迈克尔-杰克逊在洛杉矶突发心脏病离世,终年50岁。美国《时代》周刊发表题为“迈克尔-杰克逊之死:天才与悲剧”的文章,对他的一生进行了简要评述和怀念。
  评论称,迈克尔-杰克逊突发心脏病并在50岁的时候离世,但这一不幸事件和他悲剧性的一生相比却显得苍白暗淡。为了更好的理解杰克逊一生的得失,人们不得不提及他耗时多年的整容手术,这使得他的声名严重受损。另外,杰克逊后来还被指控曾对儿童进行性侵,尽管法庭最后没有宣判他有任何非法之举,但这还是让他在除了铁杆歌迷之外的其他所有人面前声名狼藉。但如果你能够宽恕或者忘记这些,那么你就会发现杰克逊是20世纪最具天才特质的艺人。杰克逊5岁便开始显露其在歌唱以及舞蹈方面的才华,8岁的时候就在乐队担任领唱,随着年龄的不断增长,他天才般的光芒日益显现。在随后的多年时间里,杰克逊的许多歌曲和专辑都成为排行榜的冠军单曲。与此同时,迈克尔-杰克逊也展开了世界各地的演出,所到之处,无不引起轰动。
  评论认为,当迈克尔-杰克逊22岁的时候,他不仅成为世界上最受崇拜的流行音乐天王,而且还成为了一名世界知名人士。杰克逊在全球范围内拥有亿万歌迷,他拥有世界上销量第一的专辑《THIRLLER》,其唱片总销量数以亿计。截至2006年,杰克逊的正版专辑销量已经超过了7.5亿张。杰克逊一个人支持了世界上39个慈善救助基金会,保持着2006年的吉尼斯世界个人慈善纪录,是全世界以个人名义捐助慈善事业最多的人。另外,杰克逊还是一个非常具有责任感的人,虽然他也犯过错误,但仍然不足以掩盖他的光芒。不知道世界上有多少孩子因他而受益,不知道有多少病人因他而重获了战胜病魔的希望和勇气,不知道有多少家庭因他而摆脱了困境,更不知道有多少人因他而美梦成真。
  迈克尔-杰克逊25日在家中突发心脏病后被紧急送往医院,包括外科医生和心脏病专家在内的医生此前已经在手术室等候,他们急救了1个小时,但未能挽救杰克逊的生命。迈克尔-杰克逊的家族好友布赖恩-奥克斯曼在接受记者采访时暗示,迈克尔-杰克逊突发心脏病前一直在服用医生开的处方药,很可能是滥用药物导致他突发心脏病死亡的。布赖恩-奥克斯曼说,2007年2月,39岁的《花花公子》封面女郎安娜-尼格尔-史密斯离世,她就是因为滥服药物导致心脏病突发,这一点与迈克尔-杰克逊非常类似。布赖恩-奥克斯曼说,“迈克尔-杰克逊是我的好朋友,我对于他的去世感到非常悲痛。他的亲人目前也都赶到了医院,他们由于过于伤心而不愿相信迈克尔已经死亡的事实。”
  洛杉矶警察局一位名叫格瑞戈-斯特恩克的警官说,一架直升机载着迈克尔-杰克逊的遗体离开加州大学洛杉矶分校医学中心,目前已经送往洛杉矶验尸官的办公室,并将于明天正式开始验尸。格瑞戈-斯特恩克说,警方目前正在调派最有名的专家前来检验尸体,对于这种有影响力的人物的突发死亡,验尸是非常正常的。(刘妍)

Michael Joseph Jackson (August 29, 1958 – June 25, 2009), also known as the "King of Pop", was an American recording artist who became one of the most commercially successful entertainers of all time. He started a solo career in 1971, having made his debut in 1964 as a member of The Jackson 5. His unique contributions to music and dance, along with a highly publicized personal life, made him a prominent figure in global popular culture for four decades.
A double-inductee into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, his other achievements feature multiple Guinness World Records—including the "Most Successful Entertainer of All Time"—13 Grammy Awards, 13 number one singles, and reported sales of over 750 million records. He was a notable philanthropist who donated millions of dollars to 39 charities, plus what he raised by way of his own Heal the World Foundation.
His 1982 album Thriller remains the best-selling album of all time, with four others—Off the Wall (1979), Bad (1987), Dangerous (1991), and HIStory (1995)—among the best selling. He popularized several physically complicated dance moves, such as the robot and the moonwalk. He is widely credited with having transformed the music video from a promotional tool into an art form, with videos such as "Billie Jean", "Beat It" and Thriller making him the first African American to amass a strong crossover following on MTV.
Jackson's personal life generated significant controversy. His changing appearance was noticed from the early 1980s, with changes to the shape of his nose and to the color of his skin drawing media publicity. He was accused in 1993 of child sexual abuse, although no charges were brought. He married twice, first in 1994 and again in 1996, and brought up three children, one of them born to a surrogate mother. In 2005, he was tried and acquitted of child molestation allegations. Jackson died at the age of 50 on June 25, 2009, in Los Angeles, California after suffering from cardiac arrest. His memorial service was broadcast live around the world.
