GettyMichael Jackson, God rest his soul, may have ultimately become just as famous for his music as he was for his appearance.
Despite denying most of it throughout his life, it’s very hard to believe that the legendary pop star didn’t have A LOT of cosmetic surgery.
I mean, I’ve studied the photographic evidence and if there’s a doctor out there who can explain otherwise, I’m all ears!
Channel 5As well as his skin complexion changing colour completely, there were visible differences in his facial structure – his nose was subjected to a hell of a lot of scrutiny in his lifetime – and it’s hard to believe the young boy from the Jackson 5 is the same man we saw towards the end of his life.
There were also reports of cheek implants, chin restructuring, botox,… the list goes on.
Now, in the documentary ‘The 10 Faces of Michael Jackson’ a simulation of what Jackson’s face would’ve looked like without any surgery has emerged.

He [Michael] wanted to get his nose done, he kept saying: “What do you think? What do you think?”
I said: “Michael, if that’s what you want, if it’s gonna make you feel better, get it done.”

Michael reportedly battled with his identity and dysmorphic disorders, which in turn, many feel, led to his unique image.
In his infamous interview with Martin Bashir, Michael reportedly admits to his one nose job.
Michael tells Martin:
I’ve had no plastic surgery on my face, just my nose. It helped me breathe better so I can hit higher notes.
I am telling you the honest truth, I didn’t do anything to my face.
Hmmmm…
