Michael Jackson, dead at 50

[try another castle]

and since the racial features (lips, nose, etc) wouldn't look correct with the new pigmentation, he had plastic surgery to look more Caucasian. That part, in fairness, was not his fault.

Well, he had a huge insecurity about his nose, and was often teased about it, even  by his brothers. That could give anyone a complex.

Take it from this tranny, plastic surgery is like tattoos, it can  become extremely addicting if you don't checkity check yourself before you wreck yourself. Nothing wrong with wanting to be comfortable in your own skin provided that your skin can stand it.

I myself actually have a few facial features that are associated with the black aesthetic, even though Im as white as liquid paper, and I've always been insecure about my mouthyparts. I'm kinda rocking that Looney Tunes version of Charles Laughton. (Mistaaah Christian..) A lot of peeps have asked me if Im of mixed race, (interestingly enough, all of the queries have been asked by black peeps.) I'm not getting any facial surgery, tho. There are other parts of this dude that take priority.

MJ had a touch of the internalized racism, IMO.

There comes a time, when we head a certain call. When the world must come together as one. There are people dying, and it's time to lend a hand to life. The greatest gift of all! We can't go on, pretending day by day that someone, somewhere will soon make a change. We are all a part of God's great big family. And the truth, you know love is all we need. We are the world. We are the children. We are the ones who make a brighter day, so let's start giving! There's a choice we're making. We're saving our own lives. It's true we'll make a better day, just you and me. Send them your heart. So they'll know that someone cares, and their lives will be stronger and free. As God has shown us by turning stone to bread, so we all must lend a helping hand. When you're down and out. There seems no hope at all! But if you just believe, there's no way we can fall. Well, well, well, well, let us realize that a change will only come when we stand together as one.  We are all a part of God's great big family. And the truth, you know love is all we need. We are the world. We are the children. We are the ones who make a brighter day, so let's start giving! There's a choice we're making. We're saving our own lives. It's true we'll make a better day, just you and me.
