Michael Jackson's death came as a shock yesterday - but to some, the real surprise was that he made it to 50.
For much of his adult life, he seemed to be disintegrating before our eyes - gaunt, pale, in a wheelchair or bandaged from yet another surgery.
He battled an addiction to painkillers and could barely sit up straight at times during his 2005 child molestation trial.
The London Sun said Jackson's collapse yesterday came after injecting Demerol.
