Whats The Story With Michael Jackson?

Question

Whats The Story With Michael Jackson?

Answer 1

I don't know if it has a plain and simple moral, but it's an examination of a few things. First, the idea of reality vs. imagination. Michael seemed to completely get lost in his fantasy world towards the end of his life, but we know that if he didn't have that great of an imagination he wouldn't have contributed the art he did. So it begs the question, and makes you think: what's the right balance between focusing on the real world and responsibilites, and escape? Second, it should make us re-examine the media, and our role in it. We live in a world where celebrities are stalked and followed and lied about, and we support that by buying magazines or flipping to certain channels, or even what we look up on the internet. When terrible allegations were brought against Michael and found false, that didn't keep the world from turning their back on him. All of a sudden he was a freak and child molester, simply because of rumors that were spread. Instead of searching for truth, or letting the jury search for truth, EVERYONE dismissed him as a freak, and now EVERYONE feels bad for it.

Answer 2

Yes he is white,But he used to be black [If you didn't know] But the reason why he is now white,is because he has a skin disease. He got plastic surgery on his nose. And i'm not so sure about the chin thing. And yeah i remember watching that on the news. I saw that episode too...Well every movie has to have SOME humor in it. So every one is making fun of Michael Jackson,and he "rapes children". And now everyone is saying he is coming back to music. That's what i think,

Answer 3

1- Michael Jackson is white because he bleaches his skin, although he denies this and claims he suffers from a medical condition that causes loss of skin pigmentation.



2- Michael Jackson has pretty much destroyed his face and body due to repeated and excessive cosmetic surgery which has largely left him as a physical wreck, far weaker than his years.



3- A few years ago, Michael Jackson dangled his youngest child from a hotel balcony about a hundred feet up in the air, prompting shock from the crowd gathered below and worldwide outrage.



4- The South Park episode was a parody. Michael Jackson himself was not involved in any way with the show.



5- Michael Jackson was mocked in Scary Movie 3 or 4. But Michael Jackson himself did not appear in either movie.

Answer 8

The truth is he has an illness called vitiligo, there is more proof that he has this illness than that he doesn't and after a LOT of reasearch I believed he has this illness.



dont believe me

heres some proof...........

Michael Jackson has an illness called vitiligo. Yes its real alot of people have it both black and white. In thriller era he wore a glove because vitiligo began on his hand.



what is vitiligo? Vitiligo (vit-ill-EYE-go) is a pigmentation disorder in which melanocytes (the cells that make pigment) in the skin are destroyed. As a result, white patches appear on the skin in different parts of the body. Similar patches also appear on both the mucous membranes (tissues that line the inside of the mouth and nose), and the retina (inner layer of the eyeball). The hair that grows on areas affected by vitiligo sometimes turns white.The cause of vitiligo is not known, but doctors and researchers have several different theories. There is strong evidence that people with vitiligo inherit a group of three genes that make them susceptible to depigmentation. The most widely accepted view is that the depigmentation occurs because vitiligo is an autoimmune disease—a disease in which a person's immune system reacts against the body's own organs or tissues. As such, people's bodies produce proteins called cytokines that alter their pigment-producing cells and cause these cells to die. Another theory is that melanocytes destroy themselves. Finally, some people have reported that a single event such as sunburn or emotional distress triggered vitiligo; however, these events have not been scientifically proven as causes of vitiligo.



This is what michael jackson said in an interview about vitiligoOprah: OK, then let's go to the thing that is most discussed about you, that is, the color of your skin...is most obviously different than when you were younger, and so I think it has caused a great deal of speculation and controversy as to what you have done or are doing, are you bleaching your skin, and is your skin getting lighter because you don't like being black?

Michael: Number one, as far as I know of there is no such thing as skin bleaching. I have never seen it, I don't know what it is.

Oprah: Well they used to have those products, I remember growing up always hearing "always use bleach and glow", but you have to have about 300,000 gallons.

Michael: OK, but number one, this is the situation. I have a skin disorder that destroys the pigmentation of my skin, it's something that I cannot help, OK? But when people make up stories that I don't want to be what I am it hurts me.

Oprah: So it is...

Michael: It's a problem for me that I can't control...but what about all the millions of people who sit out in the sun, to become darker, to become other than what they are. No one says nothing about that.

Oprah: So when did this start? When did your...when did the color of your skin start to change?

Michael: Oh boy, I don't....sometime after Thriller, around Off The Wall, Thriller, sometime around then.

Oprah: But what did you think?

Michael: It's in my family, my father said it's on his side. I can't control it, I don't understand. I mean it makes me very sad. I don't want to go into my medical history because that is private, but that's the situation here.

Oprah: So OK, I just want to get this straight, you are not
