it's all bout money money money give me give me root to all evil most of the interviews didn't care bout Michael all he wanted was peace n some happiness Michael is with the Lord now there is no worries no pain and all the peace n happiness u ever can dream of
Why did he adopt a white boy? He could've adopted a black one for they're mostly in the US the most disenfranchised with due all respect, but it seems he's not satisfied with being black.
That's bullshit if he had a skin condition where half his skin tunes white why did he have to turn it all white - because he's a such a proud African American like he says why don't he turn the white spots black? Why did he have to turn the remainder of his black skin white?
@@willbolly9679 Look up Michael Sydow my guy my life long friend spent lots of time with MJ himself was on his defense team. What you’re saying is just speculation of the internet. I’m sure you don’t know about the exposed families who admitted to extortion of MJ. The man was most definitely having mental issues but I know for a fact of Sydow told me the man was innocent the man most definitely was.
He wasn't bleaching his skin. He had a skin disorder that destroyed the pigmentation of skin. It also breaks my heart too to see him who was a musical genius and a true artist.
Half true, he was using hydroquinone at 20% to bleach/lighten/even his skin due to Vitiligo so what he said here it's not accurate 100%. But if I had Vitiligo why would I want my skin to stay uneven it's totally understandable
@Wacko Jacko i just wanna know why. i mean ur an obviously troll but why michael? is he an easy target or something? or are u racist to all the other black celebrities
Guess i was too young back then to see Michael's struggles. I was brainwashed by society. This man is one of the kindest and respectful individual there is. He was judged greatly, not knowing what he's gone through. Truly a Legend.
@@abelrodriguez1602 He was a great father and quite good with kids in general. People are trying to take advantage of him and ruin his good name. There are a lot of vultures around
Nah you're brainwashed now. His music and showmanship were phenomenal, but that man was deeply disturbed, and fit the description of a fixated pedophile to a T. The evidence against him was damning.
As a black man who developed vitiligo in his mid 20's , there isn't much you can do about it. I do feel insecure about the loss of pigmentation at times, as of right now I don't have it on my face or hands, so my clothes cover the affected areas. It does run in my family , and I've seen people in my family lose 90% of their pigmentation, without skin bleaching ... I don't know how bad it was for Michael , but if he did use bleach to even out the skin I don't blame him
My grandmother, while white, had it. She was so self-conscious of it and would try to cover it with makeup, especially in Australia during summer when some of the skin would tan. She had a hard time with it - people staring etc. I thought it was beautiful and like she had maps of the world on her skin as a child. I can only imagine how hard it can be for you and your family.
Notice how Oprah immediately tried to redirect the convo when Michael brought up social issues. Even when he brought other issues up again later she even just interrupts him blatantly
This interview is pure MJ GOLD. No one would DARE speak to or be so rudely intrusive to ANY celebrity today!!!!! This is a true testimony to his spirit his character and his truth & doing it while ALWAYS rising above!!! We miss you Michael 💖💖💖
To ALL of you indulgent Jackson fanatics who apparently are devoid of common sense, I have to ask you: SMH 🤦♂ Does Vitiligo change your NOSE, LIPS, CHIN, EYES...to look Caucasian. Does it permanently tattoo your lips to be pinkish, & your eyelids ... [YUCK] does it make a supposed straight man use false eyelashes, wigs lipstick too [lol], does it change your SPERM DNA so if you impregnate a white woman [allegedly] your offspring come out looking CAUCASIAN... I mean come on. STOP THE DELUSION... you are GROWN ADULTS. Use the brains our Maker gave you!! [SIDEBAR: His skin disease very likely came from the result of using Bleaching Creams to lighten his skin. When the melanin fights back [as it would/should] it creates blotches. He was warned about this by Latoya circa 1985, but he chose to ignore her and have his bodyguard Miko Brando CONSTANTLY bring him over bottles & bottles of the cream. That is why if you look at him circa 1986 [Captain EO era] you can see the beginning of the lightening of his skin.
You forget that Oprah was expressing the same concerns and questions we all had back then. If he had a few patches of skin where he's losing pigmentation, that's a skin disorder. But his whole body turning perfectly and uniformly white? No...
I don’t blame Michael Jackson for trying to even out the vitiligo. My fiancé suffers from this condition and he is lucky he’s white even though despite being white it is SUPER pronounced and noticeable, I couldn’t imagine how it would make a much darker skinned person like Michael Jackson feel. It’s all over my fiancé’s face.
Oprah has to let ppl finish their sentence ,, and 2 it's none of anyones business how they choose to appear or look.. no one has the right to discuss these personal issues on national television television.. And it's even more ridiculous that they get paid for being nosy and officious 🙄

It just breaks my heart how this man was treated in general. Oprah pissed me off here, interrupting him and not letting him speak. He was a beautiful soul, a beautiful human being and instead of interviewing him about his life, his inspirations, his music and so much more, he gets ridiculed and treated inhumanely for his looks - his skin condition is more important than who this man was. My heart is always with him. ❤️❤️
i hate oprah but i think she was just trying to get to the point, Michael wasnt really being specific and he was sort of playing a bit of a victim card (which, he was a victim tho) and from oprahs point of view (besides being an evil click baiter) shes trying to answer one main question, why are you white. i think she was just trying to say it in a clear and concise way and no one at the time really believed him. the real problem is the media who demonized michael, they always demonize any celebrity that isnt willing to play ball with the elite who run all of hollywood. whenever someone tries to get out they destroy them first to ruin their credibility. so they bribed childrens parents to make their kids say jackson raped them, they made up fictitious lies about his skin, so on and so forth. and him having surgical work done made that an easy sell.
@@Kugrox God ! I was on a floor when he, with a very serious tone, stated he was Black. 🤣🤣🤣 I don't believe him at all. He has an amazing talent. But he ain't perfect.

Such a great soul, My grandfather is experiencing this skin problem where parts of his skin is loosing pigmentation, nowadays we know so many people that are suffering from the same skin condition as he was, we try to support and raise awareness, but Michael was bullied for his illness. My heart breaks form him ❤️
The total hypocrisy of the world we live in. I mean if a man can bleach himself to this, wouldn’t we see more people out in the open in today’s Liberal world changing their skin color? Obviously we have better chemicals and technology now. It was Vitiligo and it’s common in many cultures. Even here in little Maldives we have one movie star who got it and she has changed drastically. Also what’s wrong with Plastic Surgery. These days the clinics are popping up everywhere and every person can go through it and is empowered for their choices but when it’s MJ, he got so bullied. It’s disgusting how these interviews went around his life. One reporter was asking his wife if they have sex? What is that?? My love to your grandpa and tell them there is nothing to be shameful about the condition.
he had no illness LOL. "Contrary to Michael’s public pronouncements, I had learned directly from him that he did not suffer from vitiligo, a skin disorder that causes depigmentation of the epidermis, resulting in splotchy and uneven skin color over the body and face. “That was a joke." I had learned that years ago, Arnold Klein had done a procedure that resulted in Michael leaving the office well on his way to becoming a white man. At that time I could never be certain exactly what medical procedures Michael had undergone... likely a series of treatments over several years, including a deep phenol peel, an acid wash to erase wrinkles and cause permanent skin lightening by reducing the ability of the skin to produce pigment. Klein had probably also used lasers. A common side effect to acid peels and laser treatments is a waxy, almost unnatural white pallor. Michael had that. It was not vitiligo that purportedly changed Michael’s color. It was purposely acquired. At the time he divulged the story he was also seeking my assistance to help him permanently bleach some remaining areas of incomplete depigmentation that was present on his back and on his legs. It is possible that Klein had already tried to remedy then problem and had given up trying. But Michael was hoping that I'd have the magic bullet to finally clear up the last remaining unsightly dark skin blotches. I introduced him to Benoquin 20%, a permanent bleaching cream to correct those uneven blemished regions of his skin. Patients have to assiduously avoid the sun after acid peels and extensive lasers. Since the phenol peel and laser destroys the top skin layer (Epidermis) and the production of any melanocytes, there was no pigment left; that increased his risk for cancer from sun exposure. Michael avoided the sun at all costs, with someone in his entourage always holding an umbrella over him when he walked in a sunny area, and his trademark of jackets or long sleeve shirts, no matter how hot the weather. Even the gloves and large dark glasses served the same purpose. And he had a cabinet full of 100-block sunscreens. I also know for a fact that at times he was treated with extremely high doses of corticosteroids for skin lightening which had the additional side effect of insomnia, thinning his skin and producing an acquired Addison like syndrome due to the effect of those agents suppressing his adrenal gland function. Nevertheless, Michael’s skin was not perfect all over his body. He had dark spots on his back, and legs. I asked what he was using for treatment. It turned out he was using nothing then. In order to help him rid those spots I started therapy with Benoquin 20%, a depigmentation cream that when used daily for nine months produced permanent lightening results. I was purchasing thousands of dollars of the cream at Rite Aid and Savon pharmacy every couple of weeks for Michael, who wanted to stockpile, he reimbursed me for all of the products but not for the cost of my services. I generally did not charge him for services provided. But shortly after beginning treatment there was a national manufacturer’s shortage. He was panicked that any break in his treatment might mean his darker patches wouldn’t get to be as light as the surrounding skin. So I had Allied Pharmacy start compounding Benoquin 20% cream, since they assured me that they were able to get hold of a large amount of the raw material to make the product. Michael’s idea of perfect complexion was an unnatural porcelain look. Michael’s reverence for Arnold Klein was largely a result of the successful change in his color with use of the Klein-Jackson-Arsenal (KJA). Michael wanted me to know all about how the Klein-Jackson-Arsenal was all staged therapy for a false diagnosis by his dermatologist whom he had made a very rich man for life. "I never had vitiligo" and he told the story. He never had vitiligo and any seemingly appearance of the condition was artificially acquired. Michael underwent a process of depigmentation, and skin bleaching under the care of Arnold Klein. He had used the products for so long to achieve his goal that they were memorized with astonishing details of how each product worked. He said “it was an experiment, I had to know the details, and what if something seriously had happened prematurely to my doctor, I needed to know how to proceed, this is why I wrote everything down in detail, then I memorized it too. I wasn't leaving anything to chance if I could help it” He used various moieties that comprised the secret of the KJA, including high dose glucocorticoids to inhibit corticotrophin releasing hormone (CRH) produced in the hypothalamus, and regulated by negative feedback of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis. CRH stimulates the production of Adrenocorticotropic Hormone ACTH, a product of the pro-hormone pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC), which also produces Melanocyte-stimulating hormone (MSH) that stimulates melanin production, and pigmentation of the skin. Monobenzone (benzyloxyphenol) a topical agent causes excretion of melanin from melanocytes, and melanocyte destruction that results in permanent depigmentation. Mequinol (4-Methoxyphenol) is another topical agent that also causes de-pigmentation of the skin. In Michael's case he used a combination of Mequinol mixed with tretinoin a topical retinoid to permanently bleach the skin by destroying all melanocytes in the basal layer of his epidermis. Using a mixture of 2% Mequinol and 0.01% tretinoin (hydroquinone) as well as Monobenzone (Benoquin 20%) to permanently remove all the skin pigment, a process that involves topical application twice daily, for about four months to one year to obtain complete de-pigmentation. He also had limited laser therapy to some resistant areas. Once he was depigmented he had to protect himself from the sun to avoid damaging sunburn and squamous cell skin cancer, melanoma and peri-follicular pigmented macule. Use of high SPF sunscreen, long sleeves shirts, sunglasses, and gloves became a mandatory source of secondary protection for him."

He’s so right. Nobody criticized the white people who tries to tan themselves, and yet a black man with skin disorder was criticized to an extreme point.
That's bullshit if he had a skin condition where half his skin tunes white why did he have to turn it all white - because he's a such a proud African American like he says why don't he turn the white spots black? Why did he have to turn the remainder of his black skin white?
Nobody says anything about people tanning themselves to be darker but why point out the other way around as if skin bleaching is wrong? Besides MJ put creams on to even his skin out. Right?
Sunbathing is going out into natural sunlight (which is essential for good health, Vitamin D3). How is that like bleaching your skin? Be serious. It's a stupid argument. He's just trying to cover up the truth.
@@bituinl yess, but Michael only compared the accusations he received with basic tans cuz there was no blackfishing back then. Imagine if he saw it now
I still remember the day at school when we talked about vitiligo and I asked if that what Micheal Jackson had, and everyone scorned at me, including the techer saying that ”everyone knows he operated his skin”. This was like 07-08. Today I remeber that moment as personal triumf, I questioned conventional wisdom and was proven right. 🙏👍 Feel sorry for what Micheal had to go through though… 😢❤️
I think both you and your class were right. A white friend of MJ that was a filmmaker said in an interview that one time MJ proudly burst open his shirt to show off his new skin. The friend said when he saw it, he was horrified and told MJ that his doctor should lose his license for doing that to him. The filmmaker said MJ got mad and never spoke to him again. MJ’s family confirmed that he had vitiligo, but that disease leaves white spots and usually doesn’t remove all pigment from the skin. I’ve never seen anyone with that disease lose all of their skin color like MJ and have read that medical procedures can try to restore the pigment or remove it to match the white splotches. It seems like MJ chose the latter.
@TeeceeMoody That might be true. I've also heard that many with vitiligo cover or compensate there spots with makeup. Either way, he had to compensate for the white spots to even out the skincolor..
@@shadowcobra69 I hate what he did to music. I never hated him because of his colour or how much money he had in the bank. His fans are the ones who like to talk about his money for some strange reason. Probably because they're into popularity contests and not music.

MJ has his priorities straight. What a great answer at the last minute. We need to care about what matters first and get our priorities straight as well
I honestly don't think she was insulting him they might have asked the questions before the show and he agrees to answer them and Jackson agreed to be interviewed and it is already assumed these questions would have popped up plus it was a way to get his message across since there were no social media at the time.
Michael is right. No one should make fun of his appearance or make up stories that actually hurt him. It is who he is or what he does that matters. Michael if you are watching me right now I respect you. RIP Michael too bad I was born 2012 😭😭😭 Edit: please stop saying stuff like" @Evelyn's toys Review you once check your channel and say, who created your UA-cam channel 14 years ago 😁" as a reply to my comment because you do know that that is cyberbullying right? and you do know that there is a button to report you right? And that I already reported someone and I am not saying who right? To not get these comments anymore, I will tell you what happened. My dad started my UA-cam channel in 2008. Then when I was 7 I loved Ryan and his videos but my dad says "he only does it for the money so don't watch him anymore." The next day, my dad passed on his channel to me as a surprise and to stop people from losing money in the easiest way possible. And I had it as Evelyn's toys review ever since. Now I want no more comments like that or I will report you. 😈
The last 30 seconds of this video is more powerful than most speeches anyone can listen to today. Focus on what makes people great and what inspires them. Don't focus on appearance or what someone does with their free time.
Dear Michael you were a winged angel in a horrible society😢😢😢 U were/ are/ and always be a legend. Do u know something this horrible world doesn't deserve u . Miss u deeply 😢😢😢😢 Rest in peace
Michael did GREAT POINTS on this. “Lets revert it. People go into the sun to turn their skin darker and no one says a thing” “I love art. If i could meet Michael Angelo i would ask about what inspired him and not who he was with last night” and the way he quickly blinks, he also sounds pretty hurt and sick of hearing the stories people make up about his skin
tbh that gave me vibes of deflection, as if he probably did do something but just wants to get the focus elsewhere. That's a common thing among people who are guilty of what they're accused, "well what about...".
@@colecampbell1906That's because of his subconscious making him feel guilty because "technically" he made himself white by whitening out the dark patches of his vitiligo
People wanted healthy-looking tanned skin, not changing their race. So that was a silly point he made. Also, if Michael had vitiligo and only used makeup to even out the color, why did he choose to only cover up his dark colored areas? Why didn't he maintain his true skin color if he wanted so badly like he claimed? Michael Jackson is a great artist. I love his musical legacy. But fans shouldn't blindly idolize him, for he is a disturbed man.
Autopsy revealed he has vitiligo (destroys the pigmentation of the skin). Back in thriller, he already has blotches or white patches on his skin. It started spreading in the later years. As of today, there is still no cure for vitiligo but people decided to cover it with foundation / bb cream to even it out (Michael did the same during his performances, music videos etc.) I myself have vitiligo and have a huge white patch on my right cheek and at the back (looks like a continent). I used medication to even out the skin tone but its still visible. I think its very brave of him to speak about it as during that time people have no idea what vitiligo was.
To ALL of you indulgent Jackson fanatics who apparently are devoid of common sense, I have to ask you: SMH 🤦♂ Does Vitiligo change your NOSE, LIPS, CHIN, EYES...to look Caucasian. Does it permanently tattoo your lips to be pinkish, & your eyelids ... [YUCK] does it make a supposed straight man use false eyelashes, wigs lipstick too [lol], does it change your SPERM DNA so if you impregnate a white woman [allegedly] your offspring come out looking CAUCASIAN... I mean come on. STOP THE DELUSION... you are GROWN ADULTS. Use the brains our Maker gave you!!

@@evandrorodrigues4313 No it doesn’t. It just destroys the pigmentation of your skin. Hence, turning your original color into a more lighter color. It depends on the kind of vitiligo you have. In my case is just partial. Michael’s case is more severe. On top of that, he also has lupus which can cause rashes on your skin when you’re exposed to UV rays. That’s why Michael always has an umbrella to protect his skin from the sun’s rays.
@@shamilahparker4251 I know right. When I sunbathe, my whole body becomes tan expect for my right cheek and a part of my back which remains light due to my partial vitiligo. But, I learned to embrace it. It makes you who you are. Sending virtual hugs to you!

Never thought I could relate to someone as famous as the king of pop himself. there's always this barrier people put between celebrities and everyone else as if to say they can't deal with the same shit we do. God I wished I knew more about Michael and his past sooner because I was always thinking he touched kids and stuff when in reality this guy was not only innocent, he also was harassed,Interrupted and just in general treated bad by the news and tv. and to add onto all of that he had a horrible father and a skin condition that was outside of his control. Rest in peace you legend.
People saying that "He wasn't bleaching his skin". The guy even made his hair straighter, got a lip and nose job. You'd have to be stupid not to see that the guy hated being black.
The autopsy file says he had hypochromic vitiligo spots on his neck, arms and ankles. I theorize that perhaps he underwent procedures to make all of his skin one color, and stop having the "spots" caused by vitiligo.
“It’s something that I cannot help. Okay? But, when people make stories that I don’t want to be who I am, it hurts me.” Michael was about to cry saying this…the poor thing…if I could go back in time of when that interview happened, i would have raced past the security guards who may have been there, with a VIP pass, and just give Michael a hug and cry with him. Although I desperately want and need Michael back because he deserved such a long full life of joy and heartfelt appreciation for many more decades (5 decades was too short), for not just as the greatest entertainer and humanitarian ever, but also for being the best father one could ever imagine and the best human being ever all around…I’m forced to accept that God needed him back so soon because he was too pure for the cruelty of the world. 🙏 Mike, I will hug you always in my arms in my dreams and prayers. May you continue to rest easily in your homely paradise and God bless your soul. 🙏 we will be praying for you and continuing to spread your message of love in so many ways that one can imagine. 🙏 we love you Applehead and I hope one day, we will meet on the other side when our time comes to pass. 💕
I hate how MJ had to go through a lot of pain in his childhood and in his adult life (I’m talking abt the Pepsi commercial on stage. His scalp set on fire.) It’s so sad he had to go through this. 😓
The media treated him terribly! (Mike knew the media was garbage...well before most). P.s He was a very kind and gentle man who didn't deserve the (false) allegations or negative stories about him.
Yeah, me too. I thought famous people don't get interrupted. Like people would pay money to listen to him and then in the interview, be get's cut off. Oh, well. I guess it's like that:once you point out discrimination on anything be it disease, disability, race, gender, nationality, sexual orientation,.... the haters gather in crouds to shut you up. The only way to escape critisism is to say nothing, do nothing and be nothing.
I love Michael Jackson. He is no more around, but he is alive in my heart. What a music legend ? Hard to find again artists like him. God put his soul in peace. I am a muslim, my prayers are with him. Aameen.
I love him he is an ICON he is the greatest to ever do it and I don’t care why or if he is the KING OF POP he will forever be missed I LOVEEEE THIS MAN

My Mom saw him in the 90s in Paris, she loved him so much, im so sad for what happened to him, im sorry michael even thought ive never met you i was like 4 when you died, but Rest In Peace
So sad how he had to defend himself against complete idiots who couldn’t simply comprehend he had a skin condition. It blows my mind how dull most people can be
I dnt understand why people try to point what a person does in personal life....forget He is the only legend whose talented in musice dance a complete entertainer.... Never forget that....no one can come close him even in 2022.....
Exactly. If anything I’d be more concerned about him dangling a baby down a hotel balcony but even that was just a chain in a long thread of eccentricity that made him who he was. He had too much soul and talent in him to let any one thing he did tarnish his legacy.
i love michael jackson so much hes such an amazing person hes so kind and just an amazing human being i hate how people had to make him so mad because of something he cant control is disgusting. he was such a legend may be rest in peace until we all get to see him again in heaven love you michael
As an African I've seen peoples skin turn really bad and mixed up with tiny patches of very light skin you can tell it's an incurable skin disease I didn't know Micheal had it , people judge others so harshly.. RIP Micheal

Nah you're brainwashed now. His music and showmanship were phenomenal, but that man was deeply disturbed, and fit the description of a fixated pedophile to a T. The evidence against him was damning.
As a black man who developed vitiligo in his mid 20's , there isn't much you can do about it. I do feel insecure about the loss of pigmentation at times, as of right now I don't have it on my face or hands, so my clothes cover the affected areas. It does run in my family , and I've seen people in my family lose 90% of their pigmentation, without skin bleaching ... I don't know how bad it was for Michael , but if he did use bleach to even out the skin I don't blame him

My grandmother, while white, had it. She was so self-conscious of it and would try to cover it with makeup, especially in Australia during summer when some of the skin would tan. She had a hard time with it - people staring etc. I thought it was beautiful and like she had maps of the world on her skin as a child. I can only imagine how hard it can be for you and your family.

Does it permanently tattoo your lips to be pinkish, & your eyelids ... [YUCK] does it make a supposed straight man use false eyelashes, wigs lipstick too [lol],
does it change your SPERM DNA so if you impregnate a white woman [allegedly] your offspring come out looking CAUCASIAN... I mean come on. STOP THE DELUSION...

His skin disease very likely came from the result of using Bleaching Creams to lighten his skin. When the melanin fights back [as it would/should] it creates blotches. He was warned about this by Latoya circa 1985, but he chose to ignore her and have his bodyguard Miko Brando CONSTANTLY bring him over bottles & bottles of the cream. That is why if you look at him circa 1986 [Captain EO era] you can see the beginning of the lightening of his skin.
He got it from his Mama Katherine!❤
You forget that Oprah was expressing the same concerns and questions we all had back then. If he had a few patches of skin where he's losing pigmentation, that's a skin disorder. But his whole body turning perfectly and uniformly white? No...
@@chegadesuadeHe had vitiligo. It is a skin disorder that can be genetic and people do lose pigmentation.

I don’t blame Michael Jackson for trying to even out the vitiligo. My fiancé suffers from this condition and he is lucky he’s white even though despite being white it is SUPER pronounced and noticeable, I couldn’t imagine how it would make a much darker skinned person like Michael Jackson feel. It’s all over my fiancé’s face.
Yeah I've seen some people's skin white because of vitiligo.
Oprah has to let ppl finish their sentence ,, and 2 it's none of anyones business how they choose to appear or look.. no one has the right to discuss these personal issues on national television television.. And it's even more ridiculous that they get paid for being nosy and officious 🙄

😢yeah 😞
That's bullshit if he had a skin condition where half his skin tunes white why did he have to turn it all white - because he's a such a proud African American like he says why don't he turn the white spots black? Why did he have to turn the remainder of his black skin white?
It just breaks my heart how this man was treated in general. Oprah pissed me off here, interrupting him and not letting him speak. He was a beautiful soul, a beautiful human being and instead of interviewing him about his life, his inspirations, his music and so much more, he gets ridiculed and treated inhumanely for his looks - his skin condition is more important than who this man was. My heart is always with him. ❤️❤️
i hate oprah but i think she was just trying to get to the point, Michael wasnt really being specific and he was sort of playing a bit of a victim card (which, he was a victim tho) and from oprahs point of view (besides being an evil click baiter) shes trying to answer one main question, why are you white. i think she was just trying to say it in a clear and concise way and no one at the time really believed him.
the real problem is the media who demonized michael, they always demonize any celebrity that isnt willing to play ball with the elite who run all of hollywood. whenever someone tries to get out they destroy them first to ruin their credibility. so they bribed childrens parents to make their kids say jackson raped them, they made up fictitious lies about his skin, so on and so forth. and him having surgical work done made that an easy sell.

The total hypocrisy of the world we live in. I mean if a man can bleach himself to this, wouldn’t we see more people out in the open in today’s Liberal world changing their skin color? Obviously we have better chemicals and technology now. It was Vitiligo and it’s common in many cultures. Even here in little Maldives we have one movie star who got it and she has changed drastically. Also what’s wrong with Plastic Surgery. These days the clinics are popping up everywhere and every person can go through it and is empowered for their choices but when it’s MJ, he got so bullied. It’s disgusting how these interviews went around his life. One reporter was asking his wife if they have sex? What is that?? My love to your grandpa and tell them there is nothing to be shameful about the condition.
he had no illness LOL.
"Contrary to Michael’s public pronouncements, I had learned directly from him that he did not suffer from vitiligo, a skin disorder that causes depigmentation of the epidermis, resulting in splotchy and uneven skin color over the body and face. “That was a joke." I had learned that years ago, Arnold Klein had done a procedure that resulted in Michael leaving the office well on his way to becoming a white man. At that time I could never be certain exactly what medical procedures Michael had undergone... likely a series of treatments over several years, including a deep phenol peel, an acid wash to erase wrinkles and cause permanent skin lightening by reducing the ability of the skin to produce pigment. Klein had probably also used lasers. A common side effect to acid peels and laser treatments is a waxy, almost unnatural white pallor. Michael had that. It was not vitiligo that purportedly changed Michael’s color. It was purposely acquired. At the time he divulged the story he was also seeking my assistance to help him permanently bleach some remaining areas of incomplete depigmentation that was present on his back and on his legs. It is possible that Klein had already tried to remedy then problem and had given up trying. But Michael was hoping that I'd have the magic bullet to finally clear up the last remaining unsightly dark skin blotches. I introduced him to Benoquin 20%, a permanent bleaching cream to correct those uneven blemished regions of his skin. Patients have to assiduously avoid the sun after acid peels and extensive lasers. Since the phenol peel and laser destroys the top skin layer (Epidermis) and the production of any melanocytes, there was no pigment left; that increased his risk for cancer from sun exposure. Michael avoided the sun at all costs, with someone in his entourage always holding an umbrella over him when he walked in a sunny area, and his trademark of jackets or long sleeve shirts, no matter how hot the weather. Even the gloves and large dark glasses served the same purpose. And he had a cabinet full of 100-block sunscreens. I also know for a fact that at times he was treated with extremely high doses of corticosteroids for skin lightening which had the additional side effect of insomnia, thinning his skin and producing an acquired Addison like syndrome due to the effect of those agents suppressing his adrenal gland function. Nevertheless, Michael’s skin was not perfect all over his body. He had dark spots on his back, and legs. I asked what he was using for treatment. It turned out he was using nothing then. In order to help him rid those spots I started therapy with Benoquin 20%, a depigmentation cream that when used daily for nine months produced permanent lightening results. I was purchasing thousands of dollars of the cream at Rite Aid and Savon pharmacy every couple of weeks for Michael, who wanted to stockpile, he reimbursed me for all of the products but not for the cost of my services. I generally did not charge him for services provided. But shortly after beginning treatment there was a national manufacturer’s shortage. He was panicked that any break in his treatment might mean his darker patches wouldn’t get to be as light as the surrounding skin. So I had Allied Pharmacy start compounding Benoquin 20% cream, since they assured me that they were able to get hold of a large amount of the raw material to make the product. Michael’s idea of perfect complexion was an unnatural porcelain look. Michael’s reverence for Arnold Klein was largely a result of the successful change in his color with use of the Klein-Jackson-Arsenal (KJA). Michael wanted me to know all about how the Klein-Jackson-Arsenal was all staged therapy for a false diagnosis by his dermatologist whom he had made a very rich man for life. "I never had vitiligo" and he told the story. He never had vitiligo and any seemingly appearance of the condition was artificially acquired. Michael underwent a process of depigmentation, and skin bleaching under the care of Arnold Klein. He had used the products for so long to achieve his goal that they were memorized with astonishing details of how each product worked. He said “it was an experiment, I had to know the details, and what if something seriously had happened prematurely to my doctor, I needed to know how to proceed, this is why I wrote everything down in detail, then I memorized it too. I wasn't leaving anything to chance if I could help it” He used various moieties that comprised the secret of the KJA, including high dose glucocorticoids to inhibit corticotrophin releasing hormone (CRH) produced in the hypothalamus, and regulated by negative feedback of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis. CRH stimulates the production of Adrenocorticotropic Hormone ACTH, a product of the pro-hormone pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC), which also produces Melanocyte-stimulating hormone (MSH) that stimulates melanin production, and pigmentation of the skin. Monobenzone (benzyloxyphenol) a topical agent causes excretion of melanin from melanocytes, and melanocyte destruction that results in permanent depigmentation. Mequinol (4-Methoxyphenol) is another topical agent that also causes de-pigmentation of the skin. In Michael's case he used a combination of Mequinol mixed with tretinoin a topical retinoid to permanently bleach the skin by destroying all melanocytes in the basal layer of his epidermis. Using a mixture of 2% Mequinol and 0.01% tretinoin (hydroquinone) as well as Monobenzone (Benoquin 20%) to permanently remove all the skin pigment, a process that involves topical application twice daily, for about four months to one year to obtain complete de-pigmentation. He also had limited laser therapy to some resistant areas. Once he was depigmented he had to protect himself from the sun to avoid damaging sunburn and squamous cell skin cancer, melanoma and peri-follicular pigmented macule. Use of high SPF sunscreen, long sleeves shirts, sunglasses, and gloves became a mandatory source of secondary protection for him."

Michael makes such a good point about people (usually white) sunbathing and deliberately wanting a darker skin.
Nobody says anything about people tanning themselves to be darker but why point out the other way around as if skin bleaching is wrong? Besides MJ put creams on to even his skin out. Right?
Sunbathing is the least when we see blackfishing nowadays
Sunbathing is going out into natural sunlight (which is essential for good health, Vitamin D3). How is that like bleaching your skin? Be serious.
It's a stupid argument. He's just trying to cover up the truth.
@@aliciaaa2004thats not blackfishing..its a tan.
@@bituinl yess, but Michael only compared the accusations he received with basic tans cuz there was no blackfishing back then. Imagine if he saw it now
I still remember the day at school when we talked about vitiligo and I asked if that what Micheal Jackson had, and everyone scorned at me, including the techer saying that ”everyone knows he operated his skin”. This was like 07-08.
Today I remeber that moment as personal triumf, I questioned conventional wisdom and was proven right. 🙏👍 Feel sorry for what Micheal had to go through though… 😢❤️
I think both you and your class were right. A white friend of MJ that was a filmmaker said in an interview that one time MJ proudly burst open his shirt to show off his new skin. The friend said when he saw it, he was horrified and told MJ that his doctor should lose his license for doing that to him. The filmmaker said MJ got mad and never spoke to him again. MJ’s family confirmed that he had vitiligo, but that disease leaves white spots and usually doesn’t remove all pigment from the skin. I’ve never seen anyone with that disease lose all of their skin color like MJ and have read that medical procedures can try to restore the pigment or remove it to match the white splotches. It seems like MJ chose the latter.
@TeeceeMoody That might be true. I've also heard that many with vitiligo cover or compensate there spots with makeup. Either way, he had to compensate for the white spots to even out the skincolor..

This is so true people should admire a person's art not what his skin care routine or what he ate last night!!
MJ has his priorities straight. What a great answer at the last minute. We need to care about what matters first and get our priorities straight as well
She is just insulting him by asking such questions in a interview its his privacy
I honestly don't think she was insulting him they might have asked the questions before the show and he agrees to answer them and Jackson agreed to be interviewed and it is already assumed these questions would have popped up plus it was a way to get his message across since there were no social media at the time.
Let Michael Jackson rest in peace!! Why must we still say these things about him even after his death? He was a musical genius and a legend.

Michael did GREAT POINTS on this. “Lets revert it. People go into the sun to turn their skin darker and no one says a thing” “I love art. If i could meet Michael Angelo i would ask about what inspired him and not who he was with last night” and the way he quickly blinks, he also sounds pretty hurt and sick of hearing the stories people make up about his skin
tbh that gave me vibes of deflection, as if he probably did do something but just wants to get the focus elsewhere. That's a common thing among people who are guilty of what they're accused, "well what about...".
Exactly my thoughts
@@colecampbell1906 he definitely had vitiligo. proven in his autopsy report
@@colecampbell1906That's because of his subconscious making him feel guilty because "technically" he made himself white by whitening out the dark patches of his vitiligo
People wanted healthy-looking tanned skin, not changing their race. So that was a silly point he made.
Also, if Michael had vitiligo and only used makeup to even out the color, why did he choose to only cover up his dark colored areas? Why didn't he maintain his true skin color if he wanted so badly like he claimed?
Michael Jackson is a great artist. I love his musical legacy. But fans shouldn't blindly idolize him, for he is a disturbed man.
so polite and well-spoken, when he says it hurts you could feel it
I started looking for info about this man after realizing how close are our experiences and thoughts. It amazed me.
Autopsy revealed he has vitiligo (destroys the pigmentation of the skin). Back in thriller, he already has blotches or white patches on his skin. It started spreading in the later years. As of today, there is still no cure for vitiligo but people decided to cover it with foundation / bb cream to even it out (Michael did the same during his performances, music videos etc.) I myself have vitiligo and have a huge white patch on my right cheek and at the back (looks like a continent). I used medication to even out the skin tone but its still visible. I think its very brave of him to speak about it as during that time people have no idea what vitiligo was.
Does vitiligo kills?
I have it too. What people don't understand is that it's very difficult to live with especially if you love your natural skin tone. 😔
To ALL of you indulgent Jackson fanatics who apparently are devoid of common sense, I have to ask you:
SMH 🤦♂ Does Vitiligo change your NOSE, LIPS, CHIN, EYES...to look Caucasian.
Does it permanently tattoo your lips to be pinkish, & your eyelids ... [YUCK] does it make a supposed straight man use false eyelashes, wigs lipstick too [lol],
does it change your SPERM DNA so if you impregnate a white woman [allegedly] your offspring come out looking CAUCASIAN... I mean come on. STOP THE DELUSION...

@@evandrorodrigues4313 No it doesn’t. It just destroys the pigmentation of your skin. Hence, turning your original color into a more lighter color. It depends on the kind of vitiligo you have. In my case is just partial.
Michael’s case is more severe. On top of that, he also has lupus which can cause rashes on your skin when you’re exposed to UV rays. That’s why Michael always has an umbrella to protect his skin from the sun’s rays.
@@shamilahparker4251 I know right. When I sunbathe, my whole body becomes tan expect for my right cheek and a part of my back which remains light due to my partial vitiligo. But, I learned to embrace it. It makes you who you are.

Such a sweet voice 💓 MJ
Never thought I could relate to someone as famous as the king of pop himself. there's always this barrier people put between celebrities and everyone else as if to say they can't deal with the same shit we do. God I wished I knew more about Michael and his past sooner because I was always thinking he touched kids and stuff when in reality this guy was not only innocent, he also was harassed,Interrupted and just in general treated bad by the news and tv. and to add onto all of that he had a horrible father and a skin condition that was outside of his control. Rest in peace you legend.
I am born in era where i came to know about him..... When he died.......... I dont know much about him..... But he seems cultured, humble guy.....
he wasn't humble. It's a 100% act.
Good on Michael for calling that question out, if you speak to an artist ask about his art not the tabloid fodder!
People saying that "He wasn't bleaching his skin". The guy even made his hair straighter, got a lip and nose job. You'd have to be stupid not to see that the guy hated being black.
The autopsy file says he had hypochromic vitiligo spots on his neck, arms and ankles. I theorize that perhaps he underwent procedures to make all of his skin one color, and stop having the "spots" caused by vitiligo.
Are you implying that thin noses and straight hair are exclusive to white people? Racism in plain sight. Disgusting!
He speaks so soft and humble. That is why they take disadvantage of him.
He deserves so much better! 😭❤️
I miss you a little more every time I grow old
Me too

“It’s something that I cannot help. Okay? But, when people make stories that I don’t want to be who I am, it hurts me.”
Michael was about to cry saying this…the poor thing…if I could go back in time of when that interview happened, i would have raced past the security guards who may have been there, with a VIP pass, and just give Michael a hug and cry with him. Although I desperately want and need Michael back because he deserved such a long full life of joy and heartfelt appreciation for many more decades (5 decades was too short), for not just as the greatest entertainer and humanitarian ever, but also for being the best father one could ever imagine and the best human being ever all around…I’m forced to accept that God needed him back so soon because he was too pure for the cruelty of the world. 🙏 Mike, I will hug you always in my arms in my dreams and prayers. May you continue to rest easily in your homely paradise and God bless your soul. 🙏 we will be praying for you and continuing to spread your message of love in so many ways that one can imagine. 🙏 we love you Applehead and I hope one day, we will meet on the other side when our time comes to pass. 💕
I hate how MJ had to go through a lot of pain in his childhood and in his adult life (I’m talking abt the Pepsi commercial on stage. His scalp set on fire.) It’s so sad he had to go through this. 😓
His voice is so peaceful
The media treated him terribly! (Mike knew the media was garbage...well before most).
P.s He was a very kind and gentle man who didn't deserve the (false) allegations or negative stories about him.
How can someone be so down to earth
I bow down 🙇
This is the first time I'm watching a michael jackson interview and I'm amazed at how much he's getting interrupted. Wow.
Yeah, me too. I thought famous people don't get interrupted. Like people would pay money to listen to him and then in the interview, be get's cut off. Oh, well. I guess it's like that:once you point out discrimination on anything be it disease, disability, race, gender, nationality, sexual orientation,.... the haters gather in crouds to shut you up. The only way to escape critisism is to say nothing, do nothing and be nothing.
The way he mentioned TANNING! YES, MICHAEL - FACTS
I love Michael Jackson. He is no more around, but he is alive in my heart. What a music legend ? Hard to find again artists like him. God put his soul in peace. I am a muslim, my prayers are with him. Aameen.
you being Muslim? SHALOM ALEIKUM ‼️
I love him he is an ICON he is the greatest to ever do it and I don’t care why or if he is the KING OF POP he will forever be missed I LOVEEEE THIS MAN
Imagine interrupting Michael Jackson of all people
So cute his voice so soft pop singer of this century we miss him with a kiss he white or black it does not matter the way he dances sings so unique today he passed away but still ruling our hearts and will forever
My Mom saw him in the 90s in Paris, she loved him so much, im so sad for what happened to him, im sorry michael even thought ive never met you i was like 4 when you died, but Rest In Peace
So sad how he had to defend himself against complete idiots who couldn’t simply comprehend he had a skin condition. It blows my mind how dull most people can be
The amount of times I tried to swipe away the adds that didn’t actually exist on my screen....
I really love Michael no matter what, MHSRIP
I dnt understand why people try to point what a person does in personal life....forget
He is the only legend whose talented in musice dance a complete entertainer....
Never forget that....no one can come close him even in 2022.....
Exactly. If anything I’d be more concerned about him dangling a baby down a hotel balcony but even that was just a chain in a long thread of eccentricity that made him who he was. He had too much soul and talent in him to let any one thing he did tarnish his legacy.
i love michael jackson so much hes such an amazing person hes so kind and just an amazing human being i hate how people had to make him so mad because of something he cant control is disgusting. he was such a legend may be rest in peace until we all get to see him again in heaven love you michael
As an African I've seen peoples skin turn really bad and mixed up with tiny patches of very light skin you can tell it's an incurable skin disease I didn't know Micheal had it , people judge others so harshly.. RIP Micheal
Poor guy 😩
Michael is a great guy I love his music 🎶
This poor man ): I’ll never forgive ppl for what they made him feel.
His voice is so lovely
