people.com:

For years, fans looked on as Michael Jackson radically transformed his appearance. But despite his obviously altered look, the singer only ever admitted to two nose jobs -- and blamed his progressively paler skin on the condition vitiligo.

Michael Jackson describes police brutality when he turned himself in for a walk through.

Vitiligo or not he had the right to do whatever he wanted to do. It tickles me to hear the comments from Caucasions about his skin color. Two words for all of you: TANNING SALON! How is is possible for them to say anything in regards to his skin color or his face? One can go anywhere and see the amount of money spent by them to get features they are not born with. And some of them tan so long and hard they well look like leather by the end of it all with balloons for lips! Leave MJ alone already!

[toocoldout]

I never believed he had vitiligo.

[sexyrexy]

I still say-- his Plastic surgeon sure is QUIET in the midst of all this!

now,is it any wonder-- Mj never contemplated having any relationship .. even IF he wanted to.. all these.. would have made him so insecure.. and vulnerable.. a chance-- he was NOT prepared to make,obviously.

[AnaisKarim]

He was married twice so he had relationships.

[Nacio]

Odd that all the doctors/nurses have made his medical records etc. public....thought all that was a private matter, dead or alive.

[dimplesmile7]

You're right. It is because he was so high profile, they feel it's ok. I agree with you. Nothing should be revealed unless Michael authorized it.

[AnaisKarim]

These people on tv are just posers. They aren't violating anything because they are just making stuff up to sell news to gullible people.

[Uchenna Oguekwe]

In any event, I think MJ was one of the most misunderstood people on this earth.
The full explanation and meaning of MJ by the the man himself:

Thanks! . . . and: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j17rM5pSzcw&feature=related

PLAIN AND SIMPLE; A PHYSICIAN SHOULD HAVE NEVER AGREED TO DO MULTIPLE PLASTIC SURGERIES ON MJ! THIS IS MALPRACTICE.

[RedGinger]

Would you please just let MJ rest in peace & quit screaming malpractice.

[AnaisKarim]

No one did multiple procedures. This is all just a long running rumor that started in 1987. That's why it's always some "expert" who worked down the hall from the surgeon or reviewed pictures online. These people are just feeding the public junky gossip because that's what they like to eat. The picture they claimed showed cartilage poking through was actually a bandaid. All these "professionals" and they can't even tell a bandaid from torn flesh? They all need to be quiet.

[Knowledgeseeker]

no matter what I still like MJ,
no one is perfect, everyone have problems in their life.
we need to let him rest in peace

[MNmommy]

The man was extremely complex.

Assumptions and assertions are lame and a f00l's journey.

That goes for positive as well as the negative.

We aren't him, therefore, we haven't a clue.

[Softnsweet]

Let the man rest in peace please.

I love this picture they have of Michael. It's like he's laughing at this entire thread.

To understand the implications of Michael Jackson's health & skin problems ...

HandResearch.com presents a very thorough analysis about the hands & fingernail transformations that were observed from photos over the past few years Michael Jackson:

http://www.handresearch.com/news/in-memoriam-hands-of-michael-jackson-hold-my-hand.htm

Featured with:
- many high quality (art & life) pictures + a Michael Jackson 'hand cast' photo from Madame Tussauds.

By the way, the article also includes the HYPOTHESIS that some of Michaels Jacksons "brands" - including white hand glove (+ his fingertape AND armbrace) - were created as a result of his skin problem (vitiligo).

Maybe it's also interesting to notice in advance that, a few days ago, this HYPOTHESIS was sort of confirmed by actress Cicely Tyson - who has been a friend of Michael since the 1980's.

... and last but not least: a theory that Michael Jackson's eccentric personality ... can be related to the 'double headlines' in his hands!

Have fun!

Greetings from The Netherlands,

Martijn.

I have always believed the vitiligo explanation.

[toocoldout]

I have some swamp land I'd like to sell you.

[Lurker50]

I wonder if that hole of a$$ bill oreally believes now that Michael WAS NOT trying to be white.

[ThankGodhesgone]

The pigmentation issue doesn't bother me as much as the plastic surgeries to change an african american boy into a hideous white woman.

[ObamacratInCA]

Thanks to his dad he had nose issues. Thus the obsession with the nose. Thanks to Michael he had perfectionist issues.

I'm with Spike Lee on this one. When you're given that much talent, you get a whole lot of other stuff too. You don't get the talent. You get the issues. That's the deal. Other people may not like your issues -- like the end results of Michael's perfectionism -- but the same obsessive compulsive traits that made the moonwalk a model of precision each and every time, also manifested itself on his face. That's the deal.

[ObamacratInCA]

Spike talking about Mike. Excellent interview.:

Well said!

See Michael Jackson describe being beaten by the police when he did his walk through.

They put the handcuffs on him so tight they tore his arms up. They also hurt his back. I wonder if that's why he ended up addicted to pain meds.
