Entertainer Michael Jackson has died

(CNN) -- wrote:
Entertainer Michael Jackson has died after being taken to a hospital on Thursday after suffering cardiac arrest, according to multiple reports including the Los Angeles Times and the Associated Press. CNN has not confirmed his death.

A Los Angeles fire official told CNN that paramedics arrived at Michael Jackson's home after a 911 call.

 Jackson, 50, had been in a coma at the hospital, sources told CNN.
Brian Oxman, a Jackson family attorney, said he was told by brother Randy Jackson that Michael Jackson collapsed at his home in west Los Angeles Thursday morning.

Family members were told of the situation and were either at the hospital or en route, Oxman said.

Fire Capt. Steve Ruda told CNN a 911 call came in from a west Los Angeles residence at 12:21 p.m.

Ruda said Jackson was treated and transferred to the UCLA Medical Center.

Asked specifics of the patient's condition, he said he could not discuss them because of federal privacy laws.

The music icon from Gary, Indiana, is known as the "King of Pop."

Jackson is the seventh of nine children in a well-known musical family.

At the medical center, every entrance to the emergency room was blocked by security guards. Even hospital staffers were not permitted to enter. A few people stood inside the waiting area, some of them crying.

Farrah Fawcett Dies

Farrah Fawcett Dies of Cancer at Age 62

Farrah Fawcett, the actress who shot to worldwide fame thanks to her role in 'Charlie's Angels' and other Hollywood ventures along the way, has passed away after a long battle with cancer.
She was 62 years old.
"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," her longtime partner Ryan O'Neal said in a statement.

The 'Charlie's Angels' star -- who was diagnosed with anal cancer in 2006 -- had recently been hospitalized again before succumbing to the illness.

A friend of the actress told PEOPLE, "There was a moment last week when she was supposed to be released and was going home but things changed."
Earlier in the week, O'Neal told '20/20' that he had proposed and hoped to marry her before she died.
Fawcett is survived by O'Neal and their son, Redmond.
Fawcett's career spans several decades.
She got her start in the early '70s, scoring a key role in 'Myra Breckinridge' in 1970.
She tied the knot with actor Lee Majors in 1973, and in 1976 landed jobs in both 'Logan's Run' as well as 'Charlie's Angels.'
Along with Jaclyn Smith and Kate Jackson, 'Angels' drew a whopping 23 million fans per week.
Though she lasted just one season as a regular character on 'Angels,' the success of the show made her a worldwide star.

She left 'Angels' for a career in movies, but the results were mixed.
Throughout the late 1970s and 1980s, she starred in film flops like 'Somebody Killed Her Husband,' the comedy 'Sunburn' and the sci-fi whopper 'Saturn 3.'
Fawcett fared better with television movies such as 'Poor Little Rich Girl' and as an abused wife in 1984's 'The Burning Bed,' which earned her an Emmy nomination.
