  • Another reason why Jackson's appearance changed drastically was because he wanted a 'dancer's body'. As a result he changed his eating habits in a major way, turning vegetarian and cutting the amount he ate. According to reports he stopped eating post the child abuse accusation.

  • Some even claim that his nose is no longer made of his own tissue but is prosthetic. In this picture, Michael Jackson at his latest public appearance when he announced his comeback tour. Apparently, this look is not good enough and more surgery is required to get a better look.
