In 1994, dermatologist Arnold Klein presented legal documents and testified that in 1984, Michael Jackson was diagnosed with a skin disorder called 'vitiligo'. Mike has been suffering from this disorder for over 30 years, which started to take effect when he was a young adult. It is a genetic disorder, though can be triggered by stress, in which the immune system begins to attack the part of cells which produce melanin, or color. The result of the destroyed pigmentation are dark and light areas, or patches, found on the surface of the skin. Michael has been hiding this disorder for years, wearing thick, pancake makeup, and when the condition worsened further, he had to resort to using umbrellas to protect himself from the sun due to having no pigment, as the sun will destroy his skin and he could have suffered from serious pain.

Michael always wore sunglasses to protect his eyes from the sun and is sensitive to intense light. The glittering white glove he famously wore was not intentionally a fashion item, but was in fact a method he used to cover his discoloured hand as that is where vitiligo normally starts. It is also noticeable that Michael eventually ceased wearing short sleeved garments in public and on stage, unless his body was fully covered with makeup to hide the blotches on his skin. Michael was very conscious of his appearence. Sometimes, during his live performances as early as the around the off the wall era, when his makeup would run as he sweats, the patches could be seen. Here's an image which shows its affects on Michael:

This picture was taken on the set of his 'They really don't care about us' music video shot in Brazil, before Michael had his makeup job done. Look closely at his arms and stomach.

Michael as a teen, notice the skin already lightening around his left eye.

The patches can vary in size, shape, and can enlarge themselves or shrink. They continue to grow until a quindecent stage is reached and the skin has no more pigment. Many patients resort to depigmentation, which is perhaps what Michael did to get rid of the patches on his face, however, it is known that to this day, Michael still spots on his arms and legs as seen in pictures of him attending the court case in 2005.

Most vitiligo patients also opt for a process whereby they can get their pigment back by exposure to UV rays. Many people question as to why Michael never tried to do this, but the reason is because it only works for some patients, and cannot be given to those who suffer more than 50% on their bodies. Vitiligo was already on 50% of his body by the end of the 80s, and this type of treatment never existed when it seriously effected his skin, so by the time the treatment came around, there was no such hope for Michael. Perhaps he also believed in letting nature take it's course.

Vitiligo has dramatic psychological effects on its victims, and they feel embarrassed which is perhaps why Michael wanted to hide it for so many years. His first public statement that he is indeed a victim was during his interview with Oprah Winfrey in 1992, which was a time when not many people were familiar with the disease. Michael stated that he inherited it from his father's side and it is also said that his sister, Rebbie Jackson, carries the dormant gene.

The media claim he bleached his skin, however, this is not the case. I recommend you research into this disease, there is lots of proof that Michael is a victim. Hope all this information helps you. :)

Michael can sing,dance,draw,play instruments,and write songs

Michael Jackson was a Dancer/Singer. when he was 6 he realized he wanted to dance and sing when he was 10 or 12 he made a band called 'The Jackson 5' Michael Jackson Was born in 1958, and died of Cardiac Arrest in 2009 he was 50 yrs old yes and he was THE KING OF POP and he is still until now

He used it to "sleep", he had insomnia and was desperate for rest as he was preparing for his upcoming concerts.

Michael Jackson was a fantastic, talented, warm-hearted, caring, terrific, etc. person. He helped the world and all the children in many ways. He even helped save a Romanian orphanage! He bought the orphanage new toys, pillows, blankets, beds, etc. He was in the guiness book of world records for being the most charitable popstar of all time. He deserved so much. He even helped save a child's life! I am a huge Michael Jackson fan so I know every good thing he did. He saved the child's life because the child was only a baby but it was missing a liver. When Michael Jackson visited an orphanage, he met that baby. He started a foundation where they helped find someone who was willing to donate a liver. It was a long time but they still didn't find a liver. Michael Jackson was so nice that he didn't want to give up. Finally, they found a liver. He saved the child's life. He visited as many orphanages as he did concerts. He visited as many hospitals as he did concerts. This man wasn't just a singer or dancer. He was on with a super warm heart. He truly cared. He started a Heal The World foundation to help the sick and poor children. The world has truly lost an angel. R.I.P. Michael Jackson. He will live in my heart forever until the second I die. But when that happens, he will still be in my heart. He is the most important person in my entire life. Promise.

The song is called This Place Hotel and it is on the Jacksons Brothers Triumph album. This album includes the song Can you feel it. The song was called Heartbreak Hotel however it was renamed due to Elvis having a song of the same name. The album is from the year 1980.

According the Murray's police interview it was 25mg, however numerous doctor's testified during the trial that the dose was just enough to sedate a person for a very brief period of time and not enough to kill them.

Yes, Steven is Randy's real name; Steven Randall "Randy" Jackson.

If you want to write Michael Jackson a letter, he has passed away on Thursday, June 25, 2009 at age 50 from cardiac arrest. Michael Jackson (himself only) does not have an address, but "King of Pop" was buried at the Forest Lawn Cemetary in California.

No, he was single.

What you need to remember sweetie is that your body at 13 is not yet developed fully, and that you will notice substantial changes in the next 5-10 years. In order to have any surgery, cosmetic or otherwise, you need to have the consent of your parent or gardian unless you are over the age of majority in your area. Please don't think that having a nose job is going to solve all of your problems, you will notice chanes in your apprearance as you mature, my suggestion would be to wait it out, and stay stong. Take care hun, and good luck.

Ola Ray played the girl in the Thriller video

Michaels was born Bret Michael Sychak to Marge and Wally Sychak. He also has two sisters, Michelle and Nichole.

Michael Jackson was married twice. Marriage #1: Michael married Lisa Marie Presley, the daughter of the late Elvis and Priscilla Presley. He married her in May 1994, and Presley filed for divorce almost 2 years later. They still remained good friends. Marriage #2: Michael married dermatolagist Debbie Rowe in 1996. She gave birth to his oldest 2 children, Prince and Paris. They divorced in 1999.

The vinyl album is around $200-$550. The original CD album is $3-$11.

Michael Jackson originally lived in Gary, Indiana. The family then settled in Encino, California. In the late 80's a few years after the Bad album was made, he purchased Neverland Valley Ranch in Los Olivos, California. After his second legal battle, Michael moved into a rented mansion in Beverly Hills. This was the same home in which he was found dead. Today, Neverland Ranch still stands as was bought and renamed Sycamore Valley Ranch.

He Thought Like A Brother That He Is nice,kind and Talented.

Michael did not follow sports so no one really knows

Yes. In fact, Muslims regard parts of the Old Testament to be congruent with their faith. Abraham is a patriarch in Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, for example.

However, most Muslims, as a matter of course, do not read the Bible because they believe that it has been corrupted from its original form. It is also next-to-impossible to find Bibles in Muslim countries that do not have a large Christian population (because of supply and demand).

Bill Baley in (1955) invented the moonwalk.

Michael Jackson got the moonwalk from soul train. I think in 1981 on Soul Train, there were guest performers, and they did the moonwalk. Michael thought it was a awesome dance and he wanted to learn it.

APEX ;)

He had vitiligo which destroyed the pigmentation of his skin turning him white and he also had lupus. That is why he is allergic to the sun.
