He's in court about 2 miles from my house. My aunt and I had nothing better to do. (She had just picked me up from work and we were on the way home.) So, she remembered that he was in court and wanted to go see him. We saw him come out and get in his van and then when he was pulling out, he stopped and opened the van doors and waved to everyone.

My comment: I think he's whiter than me. :Q
 
I don't know. lol I have nothing personal against the guy. Everyone does their own thing, but he looked like a white woman in his van. I don't understand why he would want to look like that. 😕

yup... loss of pigmentation. it's bad looking for most people, but really bad for black people (for obvious reasons). people with extreme cases can opt to have their whole body lightened as to reduce the contrast.

i had it a while back and damn it was ugly... big splotch right on my left cheek 😱
 
Was he limping b/c of the "so called" tarantula that bit his leg........so he says anyway. That's why he couldn't go to court the other day.

How about his high-pitch voice? Is he a castrati? Or is it a physical ailment?
 
Only in America can a poor black boy grow up to be a rich white man.

How would I know? What difference does it make anyway?

Why can't some people just get over the fact he is a freak of nature in stead of makeing excuses of him. From the looks of it that vitiligo disease it makes you have huge blotches or discoloration. MJ is not blotchy, his whole body is white. Like he dyed/bleched himself. His face is gross and his nose is, well, I'm not sure what it is.

He has screwed with his face and body to the point he looks nothing like he did when he was younger.

I find him more then a little disturbing, but to each there own.

From the link I posted:


How Does Vitiligo Develop?
The course and severity of pigment loss differ with each person. Light-skinned people usually notice the contrast between areas of vitiligo and suntanned skin in the summer. Year round, vitiligo is more obvious on people with darker skin. Individuals with severe cases can lose pigment virtually everywhere. There is no way to predict how much pigment an individual will lose.
Click to expand...

Also:

Depigmentation Therapy
For some patients with severe involvement, the most practical treatment for vitiligo is to remove remaining pigment from normal skin and make the whole body an even white color. This is done with a chemical called monobenzylether of hydroquinone. This therapy takes about a year to complete. The pigment removal is permanent.

So it's possible that he has a severe case and most of his skin pigment is gone due to the disease. It's also possible that he was self-conscious about the blotches (who wouldn't be) and decided to undergo depigmentation to make his skin one uniform tone.

I am not speaking about his plastic surgery, high voice, or any other aspect about his appearance. I am simply stating that vitiligo is a very real disorder that can definitely result in the complete loss of skin pigment from ANYONE, white, black, brown, etc.

So unless you're a close confidant of his and can tell us all the details with an INFORMED opinion, kindly refrain from ASSuming things you know nothing about.
