6. he's a freak
but of course he is African-American, but decided to change his pigmentation. Why? who knows what is going on in his brain. At the time of Thriller he was a good looking African-American super talent and now what is he?

12. He never really needed them to begin with
he was not ugly until he started it. Now he is beyond ugly to the scary/freakish class

18. He Looked Cutest Around His "Off The Wall" Period...
The noticible changes were starting around the time of "Thriller"... but he still looked good. With the release of "Bad"... he started started to look... well... BAD. Not yet freakish... but the changes were starting to become dramatic in a negative way. It's been downhill for him ever since. He's definitely got some deep psychological and emotional problems.

15. I'm a poor college student.
If I had the chance, I probably would for a certain amount of money.

14. What I think is funny...
Are the images of his "children" - you know the ones that we are supposed to believe are his biologically, but they are as white as the driven snow.

17. When did he get that chin cleft installed?
It really doesn't look right on the rest of his face. The rest looks very adrogynous but the chin cleft is rather masculine.

So sad, he was a good looking young man, and talented. Whatever screwed him up, be it fame/money/Joe Jackson/alien brain implants sure did a number on the poor guy.

The sad thing is a poorer guy might have got some help, but people go along with whatever stupid thing he wants because he's famous and rich. Well, maybe not rich anymore, but nobody tells him to his face he looks like an alien.

19. It really is so sad - the self hate of this man
it's no wonder he's at least accused of sex crimes, because I think all sex perverts have an extremely low self image. That he had to go from being an attractive young man with classic West African features to a molded abomination speaks of his environment and psyche more than it does of his race.
