Russian Michael Jackson impersonator attempts suicide after idol’s death
26 Jun, 04:28 PM

After media reports that the king of pop, singer Michael Jackson, was dead, his Russian look-alike cut his wrists open, as he was “unable to handle the pain of the loss”.

It took Pavel Talalayev fifteen years to get closer to his ideal: he had several plastic surgeries, bought Jackson’s stage costumes, spent hours rehearsing the dances he copied from Jackson’s shows.

News agencies said the 50-year-old superstar died Thursday, just as he was preparing for a huge comeback. He died at UCLA Medical Center after having a heart attack at his rented home in Los Angeles. Paramedics tried to resuscitate him at his home for nearly three-quarters of an hour, then rushed him to hospital where doctors continued to work on him.

His most devoted Russian fan was surfing the Internet when news of Jackson’s death appeared online, Life.ru reports.

“I started receiving calls from other fans, I tried to calm them down… And then I let myself go,” said Talalayev, who was rescued by doctors, but was then hospitalized the next day with a heart attack.

Talalayev says he considered Michael Jackson, who he only once met in person, his second half.

“I don’t know why the doctors saved me. I want to be with Michael, and I will kill myself anyway,” he said.

We will all miss MJ but this man needs help.

i can't understand why people do this type of thing?

He already would have needed help before he made the decision to undergo several plastic surgeries to look like Michael.

I am sure that will not be the only loon doing something crazy. Dear god.

Yea, I'm guessing the Dove lady has already done herself in too crazy for me

This happens a lot when an entertainer dies.

I think we will be hearing more situations like this as the days go by.

With all due respect at all the mourning fans...I truly and honestly cannot relate at all to not being able to eat, sleep or function at the loss of a celebrity idol. Let alone attempt suicide. No matter how many memories and joy they have brought you.

I would be devastated to hear news of Prince passing, of course. But the extent of some of the reactions to this sad event are totally blowing me away.

That shit is amusing. Its not that serious. But I knew it was going to start. Ridiculous

fandom. serious business. to attempt (or commit) suicide over a celebrity's death is just...just...wtf.

Okay, bye.

There may be something wrong with me, but I feel the same way. Celebrities have never made so much of an impact on me that if they were to die suddenly it would totally disrupt my life. I played a few MJ records this weekend, sure, but to be crying, inconsolable or worse yet contemplate suicide over someone you never knew personally? It's fascinating.

Well this man was mentally off...

I think I expressed my opinion in a respectful and clear way. And outside of any of the tribute threads, thank you.
BTW, check out my blog, where I posted a R.I.P. blurb as well.

I'm not mocking anyone over this, I'm simply stating that I can't relate to it, which last I checked I was allowed.

See ya.

This is what I'm saying.
I totally understand deep sadness at the loss of someone who inspired, uplifted and brought you joy through the years. I don't understand loss of function.

I mourned the passing of my own mother, who until I met my partner was my ENTIRE life. I thought I'd die, for real, and , this I just don't get feeling that for a celebrity idol.
