It's pretty clear that Michael Jackson was taking too many meds at the time of his death... but the real question is why?

MJ had 50 - yes, 50 - concerts in London coming up. His big comeback tour that was going to bring back in the money for him and everyone around him. But he had to have been feeling the pressure to perform, right?

Michael was so hopped up on drugs and his health was so poor, it seems highly unlikely that he could've made good on all fifty concert dates. So is that what pushed Jacko over the edge?

Maybe he made the commitment to perform due to of all his money problems, while secretly believing he'd never be able to follow through. Such a sad explanation... but what other reason is there?
