Many scandals marred Michael Jackson’s personal life, overshadowing his otherwise remarkable musical career. One such scandal was the obvious change in his appearance, especially his skin color, which started from the mid-eighties to slowly but surely turn from dark to white.

Today I Found Out he suffered from vitiligo
the sun only burns white people skin real facts
@@redbrown7678 irl it sucks being white :(
@@_snippy_4081 no it doesn't
@@redbrown7678 No. That's not true. I'm black and I've been sunburned. Sunburn is just overexposure to the sun. My mother is a deep, rich brown color and she used to get sunburned on her nose every summer, but now we both use BB creams with sunscreen in it.
Think about this: Michael Jackson is one of the few musicians that is remembered by almost every country and culture, despite race, age and language. That is quite something to achieve.
Andrea Uribe youre on more drugs than i am right now
So is Ted Bundy, so is Charles Manson.
charles manson was a criminal mastermind and serial killer lmao
Remembered as a Pedophile who was never prosecuted, but paid the families off out of court.
YEAH NOBODY EVER REMEMBERED HIM AMIRITE
(Sarcasm for retards who don't understand)
my cousin is using the cream, she can't control the vitiligo, just like Michael she took treatments to get her skin dark..but it got worse. Michael is not the only one.

+Husain she is vegan..you know her so well
.
Husain it runs in our family...so no it can't be removed
Vitiligo is an autoimmune disease like Lupus. It can't be cured with fresh vegetables.
As someone who also has vitiligo, what caused mine was likely a combination of stress and genetics. My cousin has it too. In Jackson’s case, I also believe that the stress from his demanding career was a primary cause of his vitiligo. Stress is a very common factor in vitiligo development, and the dermatologist that I went to said this.
It's been all but confirmed that he bleached his skin to cover up he patchiness and keep his skin tone consistent...
You don't bleach forever if you have serious vitiligo. At best, MJ's condition was mild like Terrance J's vitiligo. Any dermatologist will tell you that prescription bleach creams are NOT to be used forever and that it will help blend your vitiligo patches with your natural skin to an even skin tone in 12 to 24 months. MJ was doing the Sammy Sosa which is why he was still bleaching decades after his initial diagnosis. If MJ stopped bleaching his skin would get darker just like Sammy Sosa's skin did.
@@cjking4511sounds like Michael had an incompetent dermatologist for not recommending getting off the cream so his skin could return to a natural color. Incompetent doctors seems like a trend in Jackson’s life
@@zrosix2240 Very true but MJ was also very manipulative in getting whatever he wanted. Arnold Klein was the dermatologist and his license was either revoked or about to be revoked. He gave MJ and other stars lots of prescription medications, including demerol injections, in exchange for money, loyalty, referrals, and friendships with celebrities. Over the years after drug addiction to very dangerous prescription drugs, the mind is not fully competent to make rational plastic surgery choices and both Klein and MJ were addicted. MJ’s surgery choices turned into body dysmorphia on his nose.
@@zrosix2240yeah one even got him killed. There’s also a lot of evil people who made false claims on him to get money
I remember the first sign of vitiligo on my left hand when I was 11 years old. It spread and got to the point that most of the skin was lighter and would just leave small blotches of the darker. People were mean, children and adults alike. Saying I had patches of dirt on my skin, and making it out like it was a hygiene issue. I went through this for years. And kept getting more sensitive to the sun. Finally, in my 20s I started using skin lightening cream to put on the darker blotches that would be left everytime my skin got lighter. I had to or it would've constantly been uneven and blotchy. Now in my 40s, people still talk about me and say I'm weird, ect. And I recently found out I have Lupus as well. I couldn't imagine going through these things in public with no privacy like he did. It's hard enough just dealing with the people who are suppose to love and accept me that don't. My heart goes out to him and all he went through.
❤❤
The vitiligo started in his right hand, and he used a fashionable glove to cover it up
and hide it, which is how the iconic shiny michael jackson glove was invented.
Oh seriously
@pogger jertis its true lol
@pogger jertis It's literally true
wow i never knew that ..
Ahhh!
It's so sad how much hate Michael got for doing what was best for him while other artists do way worse for no real reason
Got no hate for that It was what he did to children

@@Dave062YT You really trusted those liars?
Who Knows tea ☕️
Makes so much sense. His vitiligo was clearly much more serious but he didn't want to be seen with large patches, would feel insecure as well. My vitiligo appeared when I was in 6th grade now 7 years later it's still in the same spot it has not spread been using certain creams to help with it.
Now the technology has been more advanced and improved and u can get a cure for any disease beside some and also get the appropriate treatment.
Good to hear Kevin!
What creams have you been using?
Even if Micheal bleached his skin on purpose, which I don't believe he did, why does it matter, he's still one of the greatest if not the greatest performer of all time. And a legend.
Thank you he did have any skin condition. They wanted him to be white and he wanted
If you take his wardrobe styles (the gloves and long sleeves) and other actions it's obvious that he was trying to hide this condition for years.
We dislike the video bc WE DONT CARE ( i watch bc i wanted to know more about the disease), IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH US. THATS HIS LIFE WHICH AFFECTS "NO ONE!!!!!!" . tHESE PPL HAVE TIME TO WASTE BY TALKING ABOUT OTHER PPLS LIVES BC ITS SO FRICKING EASY TO DO
They should go out there and CREATE video for the betterment of mankind, rather than DEGRADE AND retellING PPLS LIVES the way THEY SEE IT
Very true, he started wearing the one glove to hide all of the vitiligo spots on his hand, which he also cleverly turned into a fashion statement
I thought it was his style
Poor Michael
Shea Harris no he didn’t the glove was just for effects, the tape on fingers/black or white armglove.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe it was stated he always wore a glove due to a time where he was performing and his hair had accidentally caught fire and in an effort to remove the fire from his head, he used his hand which in turn burned terribly.
The most straight forward explanation I've ever heard. Thanks.
So, his 100 or so surgeries had nothing to do with it?
***** How do you do a surgery for skin tone?
ralphyetmore Skin graft is one way. Plastic surgeons could probably tell you other ways.
***** That much skin grafting would kill you, silly.
ralphyetmore
Incorrect. People (burn victims) have had much more skin grafted all at once and MJ's could be spread out over 100 or (perhaps may more) surgeries.
Look at the nose and tell me he has not had surgery.
I was told back years ago in the late 80's, 90's, and 2000's, that Michael Jackson's skin had been medium-brown during his youth, but from the mid-1980s gradually grew paler. The change drew widespread media coverage, including speculation that he had been bleaching his skin. His dermatologist, Arnold Klein, said he observed in 1983 that Jackson had vitiligo,a condition characterized by patches of the skin losing their pigment and sensitivity to sunlight. He also identified discoid lupus erythematosus in Jackson. He diagnosed Jackson with lupus that year, and with vitiligo in 1986. Vitiligo's drastic effects on the body can cause psychological distress. Jackson used fair-colored makeup, and possibly skin-bleaching prescription creams, to cover up the uneven blotches of color caused by the illness. The creams would depigment the blotches, and, with the application of makeup, he could appear very pale. Jackson said he had not purposely bleached his skin and could not control his vitiligo, adding, "When people make up stories that I don't want to be who I am, it hurts me."
“It don’t matter if you’re black or white” -Michael Jackson
Why am I today years old when I found out Jackson was married to Elvis’s daughter
Ashley De Luca saaaame 😂
Ashley De Luca You must be a child then LoL
Elvis was married to a 14 year old also
FuckYour Trap what the hell
FuckYour Trap
That's not true. He met Priscilla Presley when she was 14, but they didn't marry until she was about 20. They weren't even technically dating at that time, but he was definitely courting her.
I feel old seeing comments of people who didn't know Jackson was married to Lisa Marie 😂
I just wanna say. It don’t matter if you're black or white.

Wise words 💃
AMEN TO THAT🙏
This is information I didn't know about. Thanks for sharing it.
As someone with a skin condition myself, I know only too well the stigma that can come with it. In my case, my skin sheds, and I have reddish patches. Makes me look like a zombie. I frequently get the stink eye over something I can't do anything about. My condition is seborrheic dermatosis.
He said this for YEEEAAARS
And nobody believed him
Poor man
Noone EVER believed him
I didn't take it seriously until I actually saw this happen to my mom last year. It started in her hands and now is moving up her arms. Trippy stuff!
He was, if nothing else, a child-neglecting, body-image-obsessed madman. The hatred isn't jealousy, it's contempt for all the harm he's done.
@Alex Jay My post only mentioned the widely known truths, but yeah, I also believe the testimony of his victims. As the widely known truths show, such as dangling a kid out of a balcony, he had no care or compassion for kids, not by sane standards anyway.
I think the fact that he got so many other surgeries on his face to make his nose and lips smaller
@@Timdeenter probably
In most cases, vitiligo starts on the hands... that explain why he started using the glove
J Michael What did he say?
jennyluminous1 he said he wore the glove so people would pay attention to his hand and where he was pointing
Rembrandt Jones
well the glove made it’s debut when he would perform billie jean but there are many things that are hearsay about why he wore the glove, if I’m not mistaken it was to cover up the vitiligo because usually vitiligo does start around the hand and arm
@J Michael To not leave fingerprints on the boys he diddled?
And also likely why he used the mask and long sleeved clothes for such a long time. But that was also because of the facial reconstructions he needed after getting burned in that fire during the commercial rehearsal. Another major reason for his changed appearance that people don't mention
Thank you Simon for handling this with professionalism and excellent sourcing.
Damn I didn't know this! Thank you for this
It doesn't matter how many surgeries he had! That megawatt smile remained the same. That's what I'll always remember.

+Liam Trumbore I wasn't enough of a fan to follow any news on him, but it's been said by many others he was found not guilty.
The things he went through for having lupus and vitiligo... Meanwhile we have the kardashians who been doing the most to look black and they get praised for it.... Jesus its time for a comeback.
I agree with your point about Michael Jackson, but I am sorry, how are the Kardashians trying to be "black?"
@@Rebel_2891 it’s like what MJ said, they tan and where darker colors. Kylie was super pale when she was younger, now she could easily be considered black. Ariana Grande is another celeb who got super dark over the years
Edit: y’all I’m not throwing any hate towards any celebrity. I was just pointing out an observation. I know Ariana and the Kardashians aren’t black. I was just saying that celebrities often darken their skin to look tanner (it’s a beauty thing we all want). But yet when MJ had to bleach his skin, people claimed he didn’t want to be black. So when people go to a tanning bed, do they not want to be white?
@@katlyndobransky2419 that doesn't mean they are trying to look back
@@unfortunatereport6545 well maybe they’re not “trying” to but they look black. I think what you mean is that they’re not trying to be black, but the point is that they still change their color. And like the og comment said, they get praise and they get told “omg you look so good.” Michael changed his skin tone and people called him the black man who wanted to be white. So if that’s the case, people should call Ariana and the Kardashians “white people that want to be black” even though they don’t want to be black but they chose to look like it. Sorry that’s really confusing but that’s just how I see it
@@unfortunatereport6545 what other reason would u be tanning ur skin for dunbass
I don't care if he messed with his looks or not he was still that superstar underneath it all and left us with some classic songs that are still as good today in 2023 .👌
Wow I did not know he actually had a skin disease just believed the lies going around glad I went to research more about him myself. I feel bad for what society and the media put him through.
He had a disease that made him have white blotches. But it did not require him to dye his whole skin white
@@MrShanester117 he’s the biggest star to ever live what do you expect?
And your a fckn fool for believing it now after knowing the truth all this time....all these people on here talking about he had viliago are Morons.....explain his surrogate mother and Snow white children? Lemme guess, you believe those are his children? Right? Smh.
@@MrShanester117it’s called universal vitiligo, and there are bleaching creams that are indeed used by a lot of vitiligo victims, it’s part of the treatment
Wouldn't surprise me if he bleached his skin to even it out.
Poor MJ. Wasn't fair how the world treated him.
And what about his nose,lips???
*****
He can't run from the fact that everything except his eyes changed..Like his hair as well...But i'm not judging. i have no idea what he went through
Nope. Was very little evidence to begin with and the boy in question came out saying his family lied about it after MJ's death.
People panicked and believed it.
He was a very sick man who didn't understand boundaries, meaning he'd play with the kids in his 'Neverland' without understanding as an adult you need to step back.
what r u joking? He wanted to marry 12 years old girl and planned to groom emma watson when she was 11
Huh. Will have to look that up.
May have to reassess my opinion then. Seems like my info is a few years out of date.
Even his makeup artist confirmed he had a skin condition
they did an autopsy on his body and he did bleach his skin... but he also had a skin confition
@@ab_12_8 he only bleached it cause his dermatologist told him to even out the white spots

Yup

My brother has vitiligo and it pisses me off knowing how cruel people have been to him and especially to MJ since he was known by the whole world.
Brianna Vallejos beat up the fuckers
Woofie Pup Untrue. 2005 court case pretty much said everything. The prosecution had no factual evidence to back up what their so called "witnesses" we're saying. Their lies and inconsistency proved them false. Why so you thing MJ didn't go to prison in the 2005 case? Because he was innocent
Woofie Pup
A man is not guilty until proved guilty. A witness can lie, but that's why they won't win (unless it's 1914 against a black man). Now I'm not saying he's perfect, but he did his best in the situation he was at. I know I can't make you change your mind, but please at least consider watching a video of him at a childrens hospital and spreading kindness. PLEASE do so without bias. Go in open minded like you've never heard if this man before. Overall, no one is sure of anything except MJ. I apologise for hunting you down in each comment, but you need to respect who others want to respect
Woofie Pup here's a good amount of proof of innocence I found. If you do not feel like reading the whole thing that's fine ://vindicatemj.wordpress.com/2014/02/21/the-abc-facts-of-michael-jacksons
Thank you!!! Some people are saying that cause he got a nose job it made him turn white or he got hooked on drugs from a doctor 😕😝😐
Vitiligo. People kept saying stupid things like he bathe in milk daily. Lol
Dude I see u in so many comment section
The only way he could get white mothers to leave their kids with him over night, was if he was white’ish. No chance they would’ve done that if he was black
I swear, at one point of my life someone even claimed that he bleached his skin through surgery...using white babies' butt skin
Yongironi He DID makes his nose shape Caucasian....
@D S nobody said it made him completely white. He started bleaching the dark spots when it became to difficult to put Makeup on the light spots.
When Michael confirmed his Vitiligo diagnosis in that interview, all the news channels got a dermatologist to chime in. On CNN, the dermatologist said that treatment depended on how much of the skin lost its color. Above a certain amount, you use a skin bleaching product to get skin to be one color. If there’s only small de-pigmented areas, you try and restore the pigment. As I recall, the dr. didn’t explain how that was done & it didn’t make sense to me seeing how MJ used makeup & clothes until the spots with no pigment became too numerous.
u speak really well and thanks for clearing this up (likely of course). makes sense.
*People dont appreciate you until you are gone. Its true.*
@@ITALJUTE How rude?! Do your research plz! 😤😬 When you grow up in front of millions of people you are automately diffrent. He lost his childhood. He saw the face of God through children. That's why he loved them so much. He found his lost childhood by playing and having fun with them. With children he could be himself as a playfull child in a man's body. Don't come here and say that Michael is a pedophile. He isen't. Wade and James been prooven guilty several of times. Also, the FBI investigated his home for more than 10 years. He was proven innocent by a jury in all sakes! Michael is the real victim. He just wanted to feel loved🥺 So plz before you judge him, try to understand him. I know he's innocent and we Moonwalkers will fight for the innocence to the very end! ✌🏼 The truth is slowly coming out. We're waiting.

You support the dead paedophile if you want, but I would rather support the victims of child molestation.
As someone who wears makeup everyday its obvious that he had thick brown foundations on in many of his videos in the 80s even in thriller and “say, say, say”. He was trying to keep the brown complexion up but he reached a point where he couldn’t.
Yea he broke his nose and had surgery but liked it and went back for more after his father ridiculed him his whole life. He had an eye brow lift, chin implants and of course his hair burned off from that commercial. he also started getting bald spots from his autoimmune disease, so those straight hair plugs didn’t help his “i like being black" case. I know its embarrassing but I would’ve held an interview where I revealed some spots of vitilago and the balding. That way he wouldn’t be seen as a freak but rather be given the compassion he deserved.
God he didn’t deserve any of that shit, life just wouldn’t give him a break
Yeah. He was insecure for his looks and his father and other relatives made fun of his nose calling him Big Nose. I feel sad that people said he was bleaching his skin so he wouldn’t be black, instead of thinking he might have vitiligo and used bleach to make his skin color even.
My grandmother name was spriggs. We probably are related
Honestly people just don’t understand everything he went through
Right people need to learn how to mind their business anyways, he did his music but they had no other right to start judging him based on his personal life. I’m pretty sure he got tired of everyone accusing him of things and he could only do so much, especially with his fandom growing.
His biggest mistake in his career was the lack of public adressing on not just his looks, but also the legal cases.
Oh! Baby Simon! Whistle boy, your beard got awesome! Nice job man!
Great video!
Michael never intended to turn himself white or deny his ethnicity. He has stated multiple times that he was proud to be a black man. There are plenty of photos where the blotches on his skin are clearly visible. It might have helped to include some of those in this video. I think people assumed he was deliberately changing his skin tone because of the drastic difference from his original color to how pale he became. But it didn't happen over night. It took years for him to get to be the color he was in the last years of his life and even then, there were a lot of darker blotches. I don't know if he really used creams to speed up the process of de-pigmentation, but if he did, it wasn't to "turn himself into a white man." It was to hide the blotches because it was something he was very insecure about. His family members and makeup artist have said he even tried to hide it from them at first. It must feel like you're losing a part of your identity, then imagine people scrutinizing you for it. Michael Jackson was a black American from the day he was born until the day he died, period.
Woofie Pup Shut the fuck up
Tina Spence I agree with you
GIRL YOU BETTER PREEEAAACCHHHH
Woofie Pup lol go back to screwing your cousin or something jfc

He bleached his skin to even out his color cause he had a skin condition. Other celebrities do cosmetic surgery for vanity and don’t get any hate for it. So sad
Sharon Eniye don’t matter if other artists hate on him cuz he’s better and more popular than them
Joshua LaPine amen
he didnt actually, you can see in pictures if u search 'michael jackson vitiligo' where when he completely lost his pigment there were still blotches on his wrist, neck and etc they were never seen daily or publicly for the simple fact that he always wore long sleeves.
Watch the interview he said he never bleached his skin
I saw your comment on Oprah’s Q&A
Thank you for your videos.
A reminder to anyone out there with vitiligo, piebaldism, birthmarks, etc., you don’t have to cover it up, and there’s nothing wrong with you. If there are people making you feel ashamed of your own skin, they’re the ones who need to change, not you.
Also, for those from cultures with primarily dark/tan skin, regardless of if you have white spots, full albinism, or even choose to bleach your skin, a colour can’t take your culture away from you. Don’t let people tell you you don’t belong. THEY don’t belong in your life.
As someone with vitiligo, you do have to cover it up frequently. Sunburns hurt!
"But what about all the millions of people who sit in the sun to become darker, to become other than what THEY are, Nobody says nothing about that". -- Michael Jackson spoke the truth. This is the sad truth about our society, its disgusting. I salute him for always defending himself and having to sit through these interviews. He had vitiligo, period. He was a target, a very misunderstood innocent man. I ask you all to open your eyes, view life carefully. Those who are wise and understand life understand MJ. May you rest in peace a true legend. X
Yes I agree !!! Michael was a transparent man that's why he was so misunderstood, but he is a legend now and forever!
In some pictures of him from the Thriller Era you can see on his hands and arms that some spots were lighter than others, and on his face too. As for the bleaching part, i can see why he didn't want to have splotches on his skin, he wanted to even it out. I can understand that. I do think he did too much to his face though, and he should have stopped after the Bad Era(because he was VERY handsome then)but that is just my opinion.
Exactly! I agree with you 100%. His best intentions with his face still went awry when he changed his nose again after the Badd album. But he was an amazing entertainer.
humpty dumpty Yeah, I was sad😕 but at least we can look at pictures of him from Bad Era and before. He does have a few pictures from the other eras where he still looks handsome but not as many to me as from Bad and before.
Amanda W. I don't think he did as much work as people said, I think it was mostly his nose ( which he took way to far) and the cleft on his chin. I don't think he got his cheeks or mouth done like people say he did. I do think he had at least 5 or 6 different surgeries on his nose.
83jdc1 Yeah at least 5 nose surgeries...too much😐
Amanda W. I think his nose still looked ok all the up until the History Album was released, I personally think he should have stopped after Thriller but his nose still looked alright even after Dangerous was released.
With as much as I love Michael and as much as I enjoy the today I found out videos, I'm surprised I only just today had this recommended.
Holy Shit! Today I found out what you look like without your beard 🤯
Great content and brilliant delivery even away back then 🙌🏻

Wow, I didn't know this. I feel awful for ever thinking it was funny how he turned white in later years. If you're watching from somewhere, I'm sorry, MJ.

Satoshi Matrix um what? 🤔
+Max Queen fucking illiterate
Satoshi Matrix I am his huge fan I know he would be happy to know that you are sorry now he is the most kind person ever
His nose also very much never fell off, that was a pure fabrication. The plaster on his nose is literally just a breathe right strip, because he collapsed his nose, not to "keep it on".
which sidenote: was probably what lead to the first rhinoplasty. Other than the years of abuse and taunting by his farther, who would call him names relating to his nose all the time, and was violent towards him
Tabi Peppermint according to the autopsy, Jackson had a prosthetic nose. While he never admitted to it publicly he did say in at least one interview that I’d seen that he “only had one” nose job so that he could breathe easier and hit higher notes.
He clearly had more than one operation on his nose and at some point he did in fact have it completely removed.
omg Simon is so young. I have forgotten how long ive watched these!
Interesting video. I felt bad for what the guy went thru.
On another subject, you're a handsome guy, but the Beard you've got now is magnificent!
For anyone questioning his plastic surgery, you have to realize that he was really insecure. He wasn't happy with his appearance at all. You try being a superstar that has to perform in front of millions of people as well as having to be in the public eye since the age of 5.
✧ ᴍᴊᴊlᴜᴠᴇʀ87 I also heard when he saw himself in the mirror he saw his dad staring back and he didn't want that with how bad he treated him. I hate his dad for giving him all them self confidence issues cause he was always beautiful . I just wish he knew and believed that 😭💔
The way they treated Micheal was so horrible. It lead him to his death. R.I.P King of Pop
No guys michel has a skin disorder which means his skin changes colour over Time and normally appears when they get older and he’s also got another skin condition which is very dangerous and can ALSO lead to loss of skin pigmentation so that is why he has changed skin colour and bleached it ❤❤❤❤
Ehm.. This is covered in the video you're commenting on...
Today I found out Simon looks wayyyyy better with a beard and that he obviously learned how to speak slower.

Me too. Aspartame = white jackson?
Aparently.

Same here... Where am I?? Hello!?
Here's the aspartame video. /watch?v=SFmM5CWnmtE
I always felt bad for Michael. People will pick apart at anyone, just like children and then wonder why our kids are assholes. The more popular you are, the worse people treat you. Michael was a good-looking guy in his "Thriller" days so I'm SURE that disease was hell on him psychologically. RIP Michael!
Absolutely.. The whole word looking at you change must of been very damaging.
Q
But why he changed his nose and chin etc.? It has nothing to do vitiligo, I am just wondering?
@@irangasilva3850 he changed his appearance because he didn’t want to look like his father. If you do some research you’ll find out that Michael didn’t have a good relationship with joe. For as joe was a very abusive husband. Thus resulting in Michael’s distaste of his father.
@@irangasilva3850 his face was burnt in a fire so he needed that. however he also said that he changed it because people would think it was weird for someone with white skin to have a broad nose- and this was also mixed with the fact that his father brow beated him to death making fun of his nose. idk about the chin tho. it was all to keep his career. but he regretted it as he got older.
Holy crap! Beardless Simon!
@Thomas Laporte:
I think you are in debt at saloon 😂😂😂
As a person who has dealt with skin disease before, I would have chosen to bleach my skin too ! People judge easily , we need more compassion in this world . Rip MJ
I’m a rapper,singer, and rockstar
No he didn’t bleach his skinny
He did more than bleech his skin. He did everything possible to look like a white person
@@rustyspygoat4089 he literally didn't look like a white person and he never wanted to look like a white person. You're telling me he wanted to look like the guy making this video?
He always looked ethnic, maybe asian or biracial at least.
@@okitasoji4683 You literally didn't have to say 'literally'. Your sentence can 'literally' stand on its own for me to know that you were being literal. Yes, I'm telling you that Michael wanted to look like that because in his interview with Opera, Michael explained that he was a creative person and he loved living in his own fantasy world. That is not hard to believe because Michael was always eccentric and never conformed to what most so called 'black music' was about in those days, namely rap, hip-hop etc.. However he struggled to really express that feeling as he knew that he would be ostracised by many of his fans that loved his music but not necessarily his persona. Later on in his life he even created his own 'Neverland' was his dream-like world where he had the freedom to express his love and feelings without the judgement of society. Perhaps that's why he always adored the childhood figure because children (preadolescence) don't judge.
Michael didn't care for race, he was not black centric and for him changing his colour to white along with the straightened nose and hair was a preference and not a racial statement. Of course that would upset a lot African Americans because there is a serious inferiority complex within society and having Michael Jackson, one of the greatest musicians of all time, choose to appear white, would seemingly send the wrong message to black people trying to embrace their ethnicity.
And please, do show me a picture of any Asian that appears to look like Michael. I have lived in Asia for over 6 years now and I have not seen any remotely similar as far as racial features go..
Never had problem with his skin, but the nose...why MJ?
His father used to call him big nose he never wanted to look like his monster father as he called him years of terrible abuse
Why did goku beat you up?
@@crazyanimeloveable not only that, he wanted to look like Peter Pan, so he got a similar nose of him.
His first couple nose jobs were because he broke his nose. I think if that didn’t happen he probably wouldn’t have gotten it done. But I think the whole family got nose jobs.
Probably to match with the white skin.
Black people have rather brighter noses.
Honestly I feel Michael is the only celebrity who was so unfairly criticised and bullied by the press
This is the first time I’ve seen him without the beard and I now will forever see him in my nightmares.
"Rumours are carried by haters, spread by fools, and accepted by idiots".
This is by far the best quote I've ever come across... 🙌👍👏
We talking about little boys?
This quote is actually pretty bad. Very poorly worded especially on the last part. Also the last two pretty much coincide with each other.
@@poggersplayer69 so what.....I didn't tell u 2 correct Mi sentence. F u don't like it tan dnt read it.
I was a fool...😥
I really miss that man so so much 😢His father messed up his head so bad that he hated how he looked, not his skin or being a black man..
And He Passed Away.. 😥😣
ღSwnsasyღ _ Facts..
He has no excuse for the bleaching thing
@@wewewewewewewewwewe it's because of the vitiligo girl, please watch the whole video
ALEXANDRA yes he do he skin was changing bc he had a disease his momma said it his skin was starting to turn white so he bleached his whole body so it can be sane color
Out of all the celebrities that have passed away over the years for some reason Michaels hit me the hardest but I think that's just because I knew there would be no more of his music.
Whoa! (this old video just appeared in my RUclips list) Fact Boy Whistler without beard! 😮 😂
My mother has Vitiligo and to a such extreme extent that she decided to go white coz it’s just easier to remove the brown bits so I guess maybe the same was true for him
My mother has it too. Slowly getting worse. Easy to see during summer
@@speedangel Did you read what they said?
Which treatment or products did your mother use.
Why did your mum remove the brown bits for???,
Your mum could have just removed the white bits or not removed any bits at all.
You" explains exactly how your mother is suffering the same thing You After: "Maybe I guess" 😂🤡
I am also suffering from large scale Vitiligo. People, including doctors, are so ignorant about it that I have spent my whole life getting accused if being Caucasian (which I am not) and then getting accused of being mentally ill because I dress according to my culture. I feel as if my identity is being denied and thereby stolen from me. I've had people shouting and screaming at me, accusing me of lying when they asked me what my ethnic origin is and I told them, others have simply made assumptions and entered their assumptions on my medical records, resulting in serious problems because some ethnicities are more prone to certain health issues than others and, when I suffered some of them, this was simply being denied.
Why isn't there more awareness of Vitiligo?
Exactly! People hate on MJ and other people with vitiligo because they don’t even know what it is. People need to research before they hate.
Little Kitty I hear you I also have lupus my Dr said he could give me cream to even out my skin I chose not to as I get older it does look bad I'm careful of sun with lupus can get sun burn stay strong from one kitty to another🐱
Little Kitty I’m sorry, but if your ethnic origins compose such a large part of your identity that the simple fact of putting it in question is enough for you to feel like you are being robbed of your identity, then you are quite a shallow person.
Now explain why mj had plastic surgery to give himself more Europen features before his skin condition of vitiligo
You seem to be Indian, looking by your attire in the picture. And obviously we can't expect Indians to understand such a medical condition.
Thank God you grew the beard!
That comment at the end…kudos to you my good sir.
The skin is ok. Talk about the nose and the lips.
Just why? He was way prettier before.
Because he was craaaaaaaaazy. Why'd he not care about the kid he dangled off thr balcony... Because he was crazy.
He has Discuid Lupus Erythematosus; DLE affects the skin after surgery
www.aocd.org/page/DiscoidLupusErythe?
@Squidward’s Flute Really? MJ spoke in a pretty crazy way. Hissy high-pitched faux-'soft' voice. Creeped me out.
Agree. His voice was scarey. He completely messed up his appearance. He looked fine in the first place. So talented and completely messed himself up. @@JoshSweetvale
@@JoshSweetvale Ah, so you take tabloid articles as fact then.
Regarding the main comment, he didn't really do much to his face at all, apart from a cleft chin, vitiligo and lupus, 2-3 nose jobs (I think..? The first one was due to he fact he broke his nose while filming "the Wiz" and later surgeries were done due to the fact he couldn't breathe properly), he simply looked different because of his age and his changing body type. He was healthy during his prime until the allegations hit him hard on which it affected his health.
Good to finally know. I've wondered about it my whole life.
Bethany Redd I'm glad you've been informed. :D
MichaelJackson this thread is so sweet
+MichaelJackson RIp
Well he explained it himself a couple of times since 1993, so you didn't had to wait untill this video. But the media didn't really help, so I understand.
17rgm Well seeing as I was just a small child in the 90's I did have to wait for this video.
Interesting and informative but still love Michael Jackson ❤
Today I found out what Simon looks like without a beard.
That first pic of him🙌THEM EYEBROWS THOOOO
Amazing Grace yaaaaass!
Woofie Pup the manueqin?
J Dot Loc That was a wax figure.
Amazing Grace eyebrows be on fleek
these crack wank obsessive filter users thooooo
Omg he had VITILIGO??!! All these years I thought it was some cosmetic surgery... damn all the shet people put him through for having a disorder, if this was 2020 he'd probably be the face for the disorder and promote self-love. This is one thing people do better now, not that the media is any better though. I feel so bad for him.
No he’s a clone
@@danielweeden8333 umm??
I feel you man. This is the power of the media. He's been preaching vitiligo vitiligo in the 90s but no one believes him
@@mahgraphs7869 information like should be spread my friend
Vitiligo can be triggered by severe burns. As u know he suffered 2nd & 3rd degree burns after a pepsi commercial accident. This caused his vitiligo & he started wearing wigs. He also had lupus which can cause complication with surgery & healing which is why his nose surgeries failed wrongly.
I have vitiligo on my hands and my lips.. I get super anxious about sometimes, can’t imagine what he went through.. bless his soul. ❤️
At the end of the day he was a very talented artist. His music is not my cup of tea, but credit due where credit is due. If you watch those videos of him rehearsing on stage to an empty theater, no musical backing just his own voice...quite impressive.
My father told me he tried to whiten (and did) his skin just because he's black. I believed that for my entire life. I'm glad it's not true.
Grace Tang of course, YES...... 😁
I also was told the same. I was told he bleached his skin because he didn't want to be black
At first my dad said to me he bleached his skin, and then he told me "no, actually, he had a disease". It's sad the fact that people prefer to tell lies about other people because it sounds better or more interesting for them.
Gabriele Garcia same
Grace Tang he had vitligo
There are photos of his son showing the beginnings of vitiligo too.
Are those kids really his? How could a black man father 3 white children?
Dang you need a genetics lesson. IF those children are his they are half black. which means it's perfectly feasible for those children to look white. Most of the time half black children have at least some traits of their black parent. but this is not always 100% of the case, especially if Jackson had recessive traits.
Melissa Lewis They look white. Name one other case of a black man fathering 3 white children.
I don't have to name a "Case" you can research it yourself. It's not hard if you really care to know.
I agree that 3 out of 3 coming out lighter than most mixed race is a stretch. but not impossible.
IF those children are his.
Melissa Lewis I've never heard of any other cases - that's my point - it's extremely unlikely. Hence I don't think they're biologically his.
I have that skin disease too! My dad's side of the family has it, and I've started to notice it on my arms this year :)
Man, that's sad... poor guy.
I thought it was a side-effect of his plastic surgery for a long time, that it just gradually caused his skin to become paler. This was very educational.
he looked way better natural before all that plastic surgery.
He had a lot of complex, specially because things his father said about how he looks and his nose, he was never happy how he looked, even after the surgeries, he had a hard time loving himself and he hated his nose... also, doctors suspected he was addicted to plastic surgery, something that also happened to other people!!!
Like everybody
But you can’t deny he wanted to look white. He even straightened his hair and Married white women and wtf his kids supposed to look mixed but NO they look 100% white which makes me think he used a sperm donor
Vee ' Bitch snoop dogg straightened his hair and so did James Brown you trying to say they wanted to be woman smh
Frankie McGill you're forgetting that with the Vitiligo was also the Pepsi burns which he had to have surgery. He didn't even change that much, still looked the same even with the Vitiligo and the curly hair, eyes and smile
wow i literally was told my whole life that he bleached his skin
He did. To cover up his vitiligo.
He did all kinds of crazy shit to his face
@@SeaJayBelfast if you look closely, literally all he did was get one or two nose jobs. He naturally looks the way he does on all other parts of him
No he definitely did he did not have vitiligo
squishy booty what? He did shit to his nose numerous times, his hair, his face, his entire features were changed to look like a white man.
Michael's such a star
I was really thrown off by your appearance coming here in 2023, you look so young!
Even if he didn't have vitiligo and even if he didn't break his nose, he doesn't have to explain to anyone why he had so many surgeries, HE'S FACE AND HE'S CHOICE no one has the right to judge him,people didn't let him have a peaceful life at least let him rest in peace now please just leave him alone he doesn't have to answer to anyone but his God
You're white, so you don't understand the controversy behind this. I really wish white people would stop speaking on black issues when it's clear that they don't understand!
@@shadracer2838 i am African :)
Shad Racer did you just assume a persons skin color just because of what they said?
@@shadracer2838 i really wish dumbasses like you would stop assuming people's skin colour based on you thinking what they said matches what you think a white or black person would say.
Judge as you wish, but one has no right to be a cunt.
People who criticize him for bleaching his skin, have one solid skin color themselves🤷🏽♂️ Michael has came out multiple times that he was a proud black American.
Yeah, when he was on Opera, he clearly metioned that he didnt do the bleaching on purpose but it was for his vitiligo.
The way he said controversy rustles my jimmies
I think his transition from with vitiligo made him unique. I think nobody is ever going to be like him. Makes him something different :) ! (Again some people HATE that but I think it's pretty freaking cool :P !)
It don't matter if you're back or white.
Owen Fitzgerald your black, is white
Owen Fitzgerald ayyeee I got that pun 😂
Blm pun?
No, there's a Michael Jackson song called "Black or White."
+albert fish many black men would love a white girl
Uncles Ruckus had the opposite of what micheal Jackson had
Revitiligo
No relation
Hope they bring that show back
His African American but thinks he's white?
thats correct!
Thanks for this information. Poor Michael.
I had no idea, thank you.
It is also supposedly why he started wearing the glove.
I asked my classmate why his knees had gone pale, unaware of his condition. Immediately afterward I noticed that more then just his knees had gone pale. Thanks to this video for informing on the topic, I didn't know about this before and it seems a lot of people are affected. I can say with confidence my view on this classmate hasn't changed, its a personality thats noticed and matters the most, let Michael be remembered by his voice, music, and personality, not by his colour.
