Michael Jackson Was Very Healthy, Says Akon

R&B star Akon said Michael Jackson was "one of the healthiest guys" he's ever met. Despite widespread speculation over the pop superstar's misuse of prescription drugs, the rapper said he was extremely health conscious. Asked whether he thought Jackson, who died from a suspected heart attack, was physically up to the challenge of his upcoming tour, Akon told NBC's Today Show: "From my experience with Mike he was one of the healthiest guys I've ever known. "He was always very conscious about his diet, very conscious health-wise. For his age, he moved better than anyone I've known. His death came as a complete shock to me."
