Kachui 0 Report post Posted June 26, 2009 Pretty shocking when I heard the news this morning. It is sad that his appearance and life towards the end of his life became the butt of many jokes. But we can't deny his brilliance in his songs and performances. May he rest in Peace. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
beulahkilborn781 0 Report post Posted December 11, 2009 Michael Jackson was the baddest entertainer ever. There will never be another in our lifetime as awesome as he was! I am so sick of hearing that MIchael bleached his skin to look white. How insane is that. Why can't people believe that he had the disease vitiligo? How would anyone even bleach their entire body? Why would he bleach his body and then have to be inconvenienced by carrying an umbrella to avoid the sun for the rest of his life. How crazy is that! And with everything negative coming out now I'm sure the doctor that supposedly prescribed such a formula would come forth and put the speculation to rest about him bleaching his skin. Michael said he had vitiligo. What I can't understand is why that's so hard to believe. He chose to speed up the process of his skin discoloration instead of letting it run its course and have spotted skin for years. And so what if he did want to look "white" How many black women wear straight weaves and dye their hair blonde? Do you know of any Africans with straight blond hair, or straight hair period? Yet we overlook all the different things that many African Americans do to look white . Before you ridicule someone about how they choose to look take a look at yourself. Is everything about you natural? So leave him alone about how he chose to look and take a look at the man in the mirror! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
