It looks as if there is some kind of material holding his nose together. His proboscis looks like roughly molded hamburger stuffed inside a plastic tube. ---

Oh my. It’s mesmerizing, in that train-wreck sort of way. I can’t quit looking at it. It’s just so freakish looking. Mommy, make the “BAD” man stop getting plastic surgery! ---

You’d think SOMEONE would be able to repair the damage! I heard that he developed a problem and it has been steadily…err…disappearing for years now. Very sad. What a shame someone with so much talent can be so desperately screwed up. ---

It looks like a failed attempt by an alien to pass for human. ---

Alien? That would explain it. The real Michael Jackson was kidnapped by aliens circa 1984 and replaced with this freak! ---

I think its quite obvious really. Michael Jackson has uploaded his brain into the body of Justin Timberlake. If you’ve seen Justin recently and the video from his new album, you’ll understand what I mean. The “body” of Michael Jackson is now devoid of any positive life-force and is slowing decaying away into nothingness. One day it will wake up and simply crumble. You thought Michael Jackson was kooky… oh no… he’s discovered eternal life ala “Being John Malkovich” except in this case, he chose Justin Timberlake. Also explains why “Justin” suddenly found Britney unattractive. ---
