    No way!

    It needs to be someone who is recognised the world over.

    Neither of these cracked usa

    Justin Timberlake.
    Stoke is way past his sell by date and Will Young is more easy listening than pop.imho.

    With Michael gone, I think pop is now a republic. ie. no more kings.

    No-one. That kind of title is not something to just be handed out to whoever's flavour of the month, and I can't think of anyone deserving.

    I don't think anyone will even ever come close to replacing jackson. Same as Elvis he was the only king of rock and roll , jackson is the only king of pop :)

    Ah, Freddie. Now there's another great man who passed before his time. Probably my favourite musician of all time.

    Legends like Michael Jackson and Freddie Mercury just don't seem to exist any more. :(

    No-one right now could possibly 'take over' his 'throne'. It's been said before, but MJ was one of a kind and cannot be replaced.

    Justin Timberlake?
    Are you kidding me?

    No one will take MJ's place. He was a legend, an icon and a musical trailblazer that influenced the music industry and revolutionlised pop culture on the whole.

    There will never, ever be another King of Pop. Period

    MJ is a one and only, he is the only King Of Pop.

    There is just nobody in the industry today who has anywhere near the overall talent that Michael Jackson had as a musical entertainer.

    Considering he gave himself the title, it doesn't really count for much!

    Elvis is the King even so many years after his death. Wacko's just a pale (very pale) imitation.

    And not for the first time with MJ, you are completely wrong.

    Liz Taylor gave him the name when presenting him with an award in the 80's.

    Just give up dear.

    I would love to share some opinions with you, unfortunately someone didn't like my opinion (which is as valid as anyone else's) and decided to delete it with no explanation!

    Haha, boy do you look stupid now.

    Nobody will replace MJ as the King of Pop, just like nobody replaced Elvis and the King of Rock and Roll.

    Well at least the admin agree with you, any derogatory posts concerning Jacko last less than two minutes here.

    It's not that they don't seem to exist, they just don't exist, on account of their death.
