“For Michael to be taken away from us so suddenly at such a young age, I just don’t have the words…He was the consummate entertainer and his contributions and legacy will be felt upon the world forever. I’ve lost my little brother today, and part of my soul has gone with him.” – Quincy Jones
“I can’t stop crying over the sad news. The world has lost one of the greats, but his music will live on forever!” – Madonna
“I was so excited to see his show in London. We were going to be on tour in Europe at the same time and I was going to fly in to see him. He has been an inspiration throughout my entire life and I’m devastated he’s gone!” – Britney Spears
“I am so very sad and confused with every emotion possible. I am heartbroken for his children, who I know were everything to him, and for his family” – Lisa Marie Presley
“Michael Jackson was extraordinary. When we worked together on Bad, I was in awe of his absolute mastery of movement on the one hand, and of the music on the other…Every step he took was absolutely precise and fluid at the same time. It was like watching quicksilver in motion.
He was wonderful to work with, an absolute professional at all times, and – it really goes without saying – a true artist. It will be a while before I can get used to the idea that he’s no longer with us.” – Martin Scorsese
“It seemed to me that his internal essence was at war with the norms of the world. It’s as if he was trying to defy gravity,” – Michael Levine (Hollywood publicist who represented Jackson in the early 90s)
“Michael was a friend and undoubtedly one of the world’s greatest entertainers that I fortunately had the pleasure of working with. … We have lost an icon in our industry.” – Dionne Warwick
