The Times and TMZ.com have confirmed on their respective sites that Jackson was pronounced dead by doctors at UCLA Medical Centre. His family has reportedly been informed.

Expect an official confirmation from a Jackson representative shortly.

It’s finally confirmed: Angelina and Brad are expecting twins!

The confirmation came through earlier today, though it wasn’t from a rep or even Brad and Ange, but from Jack Black, Jolie’s co-star on the new animated film, Kung Fu Panda.

Black let the news slip during a joint-interview in Cannes, where the pair were promoting their martial arts-inspired flick. “You’re gonna have as many [kids] as [the] Brady Bunch when you have these,” Black said during the interview with Natalie Morales from the Today show.

Once the cat was out of the bag, so to speak, Morales asked Jolie outright if she was indeed having twins as speculation – and Jack Black – suggested.

“Yeah, yeah, we’ve confirmed that already,” Jolie said. “Well, Jack’s just confirmed it actually.”

I bet Jack Black’s getting a clip around the ear from his co-star right about now…
