Sky News also reporting it now. Looks to be real.

It's a sad world when you don't know with all these click bait sites reporting people dead or in a coma all the time.

Bloody hell, another one goes.

I remember when "1999" was released, back then it seemed a long way off singing about 1999. Just checked and the song was released in 1982, seventeen years before the title year. Now, we are seventeen years past that date. Good grief.

Some great stuff, and a lot of uncredited work also. Another loss to the entertainment industry.

Jacko jealous.

It is starting to break on BBC news aswell

He was 57. The well known leaving us are getting younger.

Though after learning a young girl in my sons primary school passed away earlier this week it puts some perspective when talking age.

Apropos of a comment about the number of unfortunately premature deaths in early 2016; this really is getting sinister.

Gobsmacked. I grew up on his music. I remember when Love Sexy came out I thought it was amazing.

Jackos jealous? Wtf does that mean

[Eric Mc]

I'd heard only a short while ago that his health wasn't that good.

[mickk]

57 is so young, such a shame.

[type-r]

RIP. Another legend gone too soon.

[Turquoise]

With the amount of celebrities dying this year it's a sign of the times...

Great shame, mad as a box of frogs but a genuine talent and mega-star.

Amongst all the showmanship and flamboyance it's often overlooked that he was a superb guitarist, he deserved much more recognition for his playing skills than he got.

[MarshPhantom]

What a stty year.

Awful news.
