Could this have been the face of Michael Jackson at 50?
There is no denying that Michael Jackson was one of the greatest talents to ever have lived. From winning 13 Grammys (eight of which he received in one night), to being inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame not once but twice, and of course holding the record for the biggest selling album of all time for his EP Thriller, his career remains unrivalled.
But despite his success his life he was dogged by controversy regarding his appearance, including rumours of skin lightening (something he attributed to suffering from the skin condition vitiligo) and his increasing addiction to plastic surgery.
Few people know that Michael’s first foray into the world of plastic surgery was actually for medical rather than cosmetic reasons, when he broke his nose in 1979 after falling during a complex dance routine.
Still, by the time of his tragic death in 2009 at the age of just 50, it was clear that his addiction to plastic surgery was out of control, and his face bore little resemblance to the bright-eyed boy who’d sung his way into the world’s hearts over forty years earlier.
So, what would Michael have looked like at the time of his death without surgery?
Well we believe it would have been something like the image above.
