Michael Jackson has died, according to stunning reports from Los Angeles.

The 50 year old suffered a cardiac arrest at his home in Holmby Hills, Los Angeles on Thursday and paramedics were called to the scene.

Reports suggest the King of Pop was unconscious and not breathing. The medics had to perform CPR on the superstar as they rushed him to UCLA Medical Center. TMZ.com claims the Thriller singer has since died.

Update 18.07 EST: Jackson’s father Joe has confirmed the singer suffered a heart attack. More news to follow…

Update 18.26 EST: The LA Times is now confirming Jackson is dead.

From The LA Times:

Pop star Michael Jackson was pronounced dead by doctors this afternoon after arriving at a hospital in a deep coma, city and law enforcement sources told The Times.

Update 19.33 EST:  Jackson family friend, attorney Brian Oxman has called into CNN from the UCLA Medical Center. He’s refusing to confirm Jacko’s death but suggests all reports are true.

He has been “hugging and crying” with Jackson’s siblings Randy, Jermaine and LaToya and awaiting father Joe Jackson, who is on his way from Las Vegas.

Intriguingly Oxman  suggests Jackson was on “extensive medication” at the time of his death and cold have been the victim of an Anna-Nicole Smith scenario.

He tells CNN:

“This family has been trying for months and months and months to take care of Michael Jackson. The people who have surrounded him have been enabling him.

“If you think the case of Anna Nicole Smith was an abuse, that is nothing compared to what has taken place in the life of Michael Jackson.”

“I do not know what medications he was taking, but the reports that we have received within the family are that they were extensive.

“I don’t know the cause of all this. But this is something that I feared.  This is a case of abuse of medications, unless the cause is something else.”

Update 20.05 EST:  The coroner at UCLA has confirmed the death. R.I.P Michael Jackson.

Ryan O’Neal leaves St. John’s Hospital, shortly after the death of his longterm partner Farrah Fawcett.

The actor has already paid tribute to the Charlie’s Angels star:

“After a long and brave battle with cancer, our beloved Farrah has passed away. Although this is an extremely difficult time for her family and friends, we take comfort in the beautiful times that we shared with Farrah over the years and the knowledge that her life brought joy to so many people around the world.”

“She now belongs to the angels. She’s now with her mother and sister and her God. I loved her with all my heart. I will miss her so very, very much. She was in and out of consciousness. I talked to her all through the night. I told her how very much I loved her. She’s in a better place now.

“She was with her team when she passed… Her eyes were open, but she didn’t say anything. But you could see in her eyes that she recognised us.”

It’s been a while since we’ve been flashed at, and regular offenders Lindsay Lohan, Britney Spears and Paris Hilton seem to be covering up these days.

So thank God we can rely on Kate Moss to fail the first challenge of being a female celebrity —  ’how to  get out of a car without showing off everything you’ve got’.

We caught the supermodel looking dishevelled as she returned home after a party in London last night — and she rewarded us with this…

Stay a safe distance if you ever run into amorous duo Bruce Willis and Emma Heming.
The two can’t keep their hands off each other and bystanders are getting a full on lesson in PDA’s from the newlyweds
Says Willis, “We’re sickening. We make out in public. I know there’s some rule that you’re not supposed to be doing… public displays of affection.”

Well, Bruce, apparently you’re not one to play by the rules.

16-year-old Nick, took a break from being a pop star to testify during a Senate hearing in Washingon D.C.  for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.

Popstar? Check. Heart throb? Check. Pioneer against world diseases? Check.

Never mind the bullocks

Ricky Gervais has landed the oddest birthday gift ahead of his 48th birthday on Thursday - a bullock.

Officials at PETA have decided to name a cow they rescued in India after the birthday boy - in honour of his love for creatures great and small.

Earlier this year, the comedian appeared on TV in the U.S. and launched into a hilarious diatribe against organisations that send cows, chickens and goats to help people in developing countries.

PETA bosses loved his rant and decided to find a way to honour the Brit.

That honour comes in the shape of a 20-year-old bull, which was set for slaughter after working the sugarmill circuit in Sangli, India, for much of its life. The beast of burden, called Ricky, will now live out its days at a sanctuary.
