Another was a beauty queen - turned poster girl - turned actress who inspired millions in the end with her courage and tenacity against a vicious disease that eventually claimed her.
And oddly enough - the third was an alleged pedophile with bizarre tendencies who died leaving behind three kids and a massive debt. Yet his death and 'accomplishments' receives the VAST majority of news coverage.

It's not that complicated. The news is part of the entertainment business, and as an entertainer, MJ was the most talented of the 3 by oceans. My friend Raul died last week too in a motorcycle accident. He was talented too but not famous. May they all rest in peace.
