Michael Jackson's Death: Celebrity Tweets

Causecast believes in the power of social media to change the world, so we thought we’d compile a list of celebs tweeting about Michael Jackson’s passing.
Note: Due to the public nature of Jackson’s life, these may not all be in the best of taste. Comedians do use twitter—fair warning.

•Diddy: Michael Jackson showed me that you can actually see the beat. He made the music come to life!! He made me believe in magic. I will miss him!
