Pete Wentz, Perez Hilton Fight About Jacko

Days after he was allegedly punched by the Black Eyed Peas' manager, Perez Hilton got into a virtual tussle of sorts with Fall Out Boy's Pete Wentz about Michael Jackson's death.
Even Ashlee Simpson Wentz, Good Charlotte's Joel Madden, John Mayer and actor Kevin Spacey got in the middle of it.
It seemed the only person missing was Keyser Soze.
Hilton originally called the news of Jackson's medical emergency "dubious." Madden has linked to Hilton's first post on his Twitter. The original Hilton post has a photo of Jackson with the comment "Heart attack or cold feet?" written on it. The post has since been edited to remove the following:
"We are dubious!! Jacko pulled a similar stunt when he was getting ready for his big HBO special in '95 when he 'collapsed' at rehearsal!! He was dragging his heels on that just like his upcoming 50 date London residency at the 02 Arena, of which he already postponed the first few dates!!!
"Either he's lying or making himself sick, but we're curious to see if he's able to go on!!! Get your money back, ticket holders!!!!"
After Jackson's passing, Hilton Tweeted the following: "To the paparazzi and mainstream media, PLEASE give the Jackson family space. Please. We DO NOT need to see pictures or videos of them now!"
Wentz then had a go at Hilton for his quick change of heart.
"u can't make ur life tearing someone apart, who is a human being, and then flip on a dime and say respect and mourn him," Wentz Tweeted. Wentz then added: "essentially that's what you do. Recanting after someone passes doesn't mean shit in my book. I have no beef. But mj was a legend."
"I'm not recanting. He was FAR from a perfect person. EVERYONE can acknowledge that," Hilton retorted.
From there, John Mayer and Ashlee Simpson-Wentz also added similar comments to support Wentz.
"You and Ashlee and John must really think I'm a monster. I'm not trying to change your opinions. Nor do I care to," Hilton Tweeted. "But if someone dies, I'm not gonna fucking celebrate that! Even 'monsters' have feelings."
"so ur saying u don't know him as a person but say he was far from a perfect person. That's the disconnect I'm talking about," Wentz replied.
"He WAS," Hilton responded. "This man was accused of being inappropriate with children MULTIPLE times!"
From there, Kevin Spacey entered the fray regarding rumours of Jeff Goldblum's death which were being reported.
"Jeff Goldblum is alive and well. I just spoke to his manager. Stop these stupid rumors," Spacey said in a comment that was aimed at Hilton on his Twitter.
The dispute then died down between both parties.
