As news of Dr. Conrad Murray’s guilty verdict blazed across many-a-media outlet, fans and spectators alike reached out to voice their opinions. The high profile case, which sought to pinpoint Dr. Conrad Murray’s involvement (or possible lack thereof) in the death of pop icon Michael Jackson, ended today when a Californian jury found him guilty of involuntary manslaughter.
While the story is still making its rounds, some of Michael’s celebrity friends and admirers have taken to Twitter to share their responses to the outcome of the case.

Ellen DeGeneres: “I loved Michael Jackson. His brother Jermaine Jackson will be here (on her talk show) on Wednesday. I can’t wait to talk to him.”
Star Jones: “Dang conradmurray has been remanded to jail pending sentence. Go directly to jail…do not collect $200. Go to jail!…Clear that conradmurray will be sentenced to at least some prison time.”

Where Rihanna’s comment
PPL should be thanking rihanna, i mean she is a Goddess.
MJ was king of pop
Rihanna is Goddess of pop
Rihanna is basically a wonder woman of music
dududud wonder Rihanna *wonder woman music* 🙂
I don’t think anyone could have saved him. He was addicted to drugs because of having to deal with the media and abusive father.
RIP MJ.
Give me a big fat KISS 🙂
damn..this is even about rihanna.. shes IRRELEVANT in this post.
the point of the matter is…The greatest musical icon in the WORLD is dead due to negligence. 3 kids have lost a family, umpteen(lol who knows..i dont) brothers and sisters have lost a sibling..and parents have lost a child. There really isnt a winner here. Only justice. And for once, it was served. Thank God. R.I.P MJ. You deserve to sleep peacefully amongst the angels.
@ISIMPLYDGAF
Spank me
Do you really think that the only person responsible for MJ’s death is Conrad Murray? I mean he had already one foot in the grave (see “This is it” tour rehearsals.)
I think Beyonce is responsible for MJ death 🙁

I`m glad that JUSTICE WAS SERVED !!!!!!!!!!!
I wonder what MJ`s family is doing now….probably celebrating !
CMON NOW…. WE ALL KNOW MJ TAKES MASSIVE BLAME HERE AND AT-FAULT D***** BAGGERY BEHAVIOR. IF HE WASNT AN ADDICT THERE WOULD BE NO DR. CONRAD MURRAY, POINT BLANK —- PERIOD!! TRUTH.
@ Judas666
TAKE YO IGNORANT ASS SOMEWHERE ELSE..C*** !
KERRY……I MEAN…KERI HILSON…SHUT YO FLOP ASS UP!
THIS IS NOT A RIHANNA POST..LEAVE MY QUEEN OUT OF YOUR MOUTH!…..RIP MJ.
@KERRY JOHNSON
Why the hell would Beyonce be responsible for MJ’s death? And why are you posting sh!t about Rihianna, she not even relevant right now
The family might be happy but this in no way, shape, or form solved the demons that michael
and his family have controlling them. Conrad Murray was a Doctor who as we all know had
no right to be doing what he was. However, Michael was a train on a one way track that no
man, woman, or child including his own could have stopped. When you have the money he
did, the flow of prescription narcotics is unstoppable regardless of where he chose to get
them. I dont see how the family or anyone feels that Dr Murray spendimg a few years in
prison somehow causes Michael’s “Soul to Finally Rest” when Michael was the primary
cause and primary problem of his Addiction.
@JAMIR21 Suck d*** b****!! Truth hurts, deal with it. SIT!! -1.
How comes my comment wasnt mentioned? Im a celeb;)
I am glad the trial is over but I am anxious to hear Rev. Sharpton expound on his thoughts AND agree with those who believe this may not give the family the closure it REALLY needs….another sad day.
Who would have thought Nicki’s comment would be the most wise? I agree actually, this whole damn thing is a tragedy. Michael lost his life to his own demons. Conrad assisted and through his own ignorance and irresponsibility he killed a man. Two black men lost to the system, smh. Tragedy all around.
I agree with Nicki Minaj.
I had no problems with NICKI MINAJ, but she grew a lot in my eyes with this true and clever comment!!! :-)))
KERI JOHNSON SHUT THE F*** UP SHE SUCKS NOW
MICHAEL killed himself….he was depressed and HE acted irresponsibly by doing that type of crazy s*** knowing he had his children to look after. horrible example of a black man and horrible example of a father. I used to love Michael but i lost so much respect knowing how he went out…….Conrad was negligable and deserves jail time but dont for ONE SECOND think that Michael was victimized or anything, he would have got the drugs EITHER way and he was headed down a destructive path and on the verge of killing himself regardless.
I just want all this mess to GO AWAY. I dont want to hear any more from TRANET or any of the money hungry pathetic Jackson family. Michael distanced himself from them long ago so I dont know what kind of act theyre trying to pull now as if they were close before he died. TRANET especially, that ho been milking his death ever since for her own gain…..she know nobody care about her irrelevant self
I just want to slap Conrad Murray !
