DID you ever meet Michael Jackson?
As millions mourn the death of the international superstar we are asking for any memories you may have of the singer.
Even before it was confirmed that Jackson star had died on Thursday, hundreds converged outside the UCLA Medical Center, where Jackson was rushed by firefighters. Fans there carried flowers, cried, consoled each other and sang songs that defined a generation of people around the world. Despite the controversial child sexual abuse claims over the years, dozens more gathered outside Jackson's home to remember an artist nearly unsurpassed in global popularity.
MTV switched to a Jackson-only schedule, playing the artist's memorable videos. Radio stations across the world also dedicated the night to Jackson, only playing hits, such as 'Billie Jean', 'Don't Stop 'til You Get Enough', and 'We Are the World'.
