King of pop Michael Jackson had been taking a cocktail of seven prescription drugs that caused the cardiac arrest that took his life, if reports are to be believed.

The legendary star passed away last night at the age of 50 after he suffered a heart attack at his home in Holmby Hills, California, and failed to recover even after repeated resuscitation attempts.

Celebrity magazine Life and Style has now reported that Jackson was addicted to prescription drugs in the months before his death.

A source has revealed that Jackson had been popping pills, including anti-anxiety drugs Xanax and Zoloft and painkiller Demerol, for weeks before he lost his life.

An insider has revealed that the 'Thriller' hit-maker took a suspected overdose of drugs on Thursday morning, which caused respiratory and cardiac arrest.

In an interview with CNN, Jackson's family lawyer, Brian Oxman, commented that the icon was killed by an abuse of prescription drugs, and compared his death to that of tragic star Anna Nicole Smith.

He has claimed that Jackson's death is down to the people who surrounded him before his untimely demise.
