It is being called a dark day in Hollywood after the deaths of icons Michael Jackson, 50, and Farrah Fawcett, 62. With a 50-concert tour scheduled, and an announcement just yesterday that he'll be wearing Swarovski when he kicked off his "This is It" tour in London next month, Michael passed away yesterday afternoon. According to US reports, the King of Pop suffered a cardiac arrest at his home, and was taken to UCLA Medical Center where he was pronounced dead by medical staff. His brother, Jermaine Jackson just confirmed the sad news in a press conference.

Earlier yesterday morning, Farrah lost her long battle with cancer. The former Charlie's Angels star, renowned for her flicky hair 'do, passed away in Santa Monica surrounded by her family and friends, including Ryan O'Neal.
