(CNN) -- The votes are in and Michael Jackson is your number one global music icon.
Almost 100,000 of you voted to tell us that the self-styled "King of Pop," who died suddenly in June 2009, is the musician you rate above all others.

British pop group The Beatles, late Canto pop sensation Leslie Cheung, rock 'n' roller Elvis Presley and Reggae godfather Bob Marley also made the top five.

No female artists made the list, although U.S. pop queen, Madonna came in at number six, narrowly missing a place.
Last month CNN's arts and culture program, icon, asked you to vote for your top five most iconic musicians of all time.

This month, we want to know your thoughts on the most iconic 20th century painters. Salvador Dali perhaps? Picasso? Or maybe Andy Warhol? Click here to vote.
We'll reveal your top five on September 23 when the next show airs.

Re: CNN Icons

We made :)

Sure he deserves this. and so much more.

now let the usal "I wish they had done this before" and the "They should have done this before", for that is totally true.
But this is what we have now.

well...
Michael would have loved it.

So sad he is not to see it :depressed:
 
Re: CNN Icons

Self titled king of pop? Typical media for you right there. Whenever MJ wins something they gotta write something to try and degrade it. They never call Elvis Presley the self titled king of rock n roll or The Beatles the self titled fab four

That's because they're jerks. They can never give MJ the respect he deserves. They're jealous and mad that MJ was voted #1 above the likes of The Beatles and Elvis Presley, so the media as always has to find a way to downplay or diminish his success. It's pathetic. I'm tired of media always putting a negative spin on everything involving MJ.

But oh well. The people have spoken and MJ is the top icon whether CNN or whatever media likes it or not.

GO MJ!!!

Luv u Mike

I'd like to know who is the real King of Pop then, according to the media, if MJ is only self-titled.....

(But of course they have no problem calling Madonna Queen of Pop and Elvis King of Rock and Roll.)

Re: CNN Icons

I don't know why but this makes me feel sad. I'm really happy that so many people voted and feel that he's the number 1 icon, but... I wish he was still here. Sorry. :(
