People think he is a horrible person and that he made his skin white for no reason but he didn't. Jackson's skin was a medium-brown color for the entire duration of his youth, but starting in the early 1980s, his skin gradually grew paler. This change gained widespread media coverage, including rumors that Jackson was bleaching his skin. However, in the early 1980s, Jackson was diagnosed with vitiligo and lupus, the latter of which is potentially lethal but is in remission in Jackson's case. Both conditions make Jackson sensitive to overexposure to sunlight, which can cause his lupus condition to reawaken.[113] Jackson first spoke publicly about vitiligo in a 1993 interview with Oprah Winfrey. To treat both these conditions Jackson uses Solaquin, Retin A and Benoquin. He must also have hydroxychloroquin injected directly into his scalp regularly. Ironically, the treatments he uses for his condition further lightens his skin tone, and with the application of pancake makeup to even out his skin tone, he can appear very pale. Also his face therned white and so did his whole body.
I have heard this elsewhere, but in the future would you mind using more reliable sources. Thanks. Also your not fooling anyone that you are just bumping your topic, haha.
Ahh, I just noticed something. Is it me or does this forum say, Movies and Music. A topic about a retired pop singer and his skin condition may seem like this should be here. But judging by the fact that this has nothing to do with music or movies in particular, this seems like it would be suited better in the Tavern.
ive heard it before as well... its starting to become more common knowledge now with all the discussion about it (i believe it was also a special on like Oprah, or some talk show of that nature)
well, he was had plastic surgery he admits that, and anyone can put whatever they want on wikipedia, but if thats true, then i geuss everyone else is wrong about him. just a question, why were you searching micheal jackson on wikipedia?
Ya, hes taken a bad enough beating from south park. lol I thought he had surgery to make his skin black but the doctor did it white and then he sued the doctor for money?
Michael Jackson is a reatrd for getting any surgery( if he really did) at all like his nose and stuff, and his music sucks anyway, and this post should be in the tavern
