Michael Jackson's nose 'is disintegrating'
15/11/2002 - 16:17:59  

Michael Jackson sparked speculation about the state of his nose today after a rare close-up shot of his face was circulated around the globe.

Pictures of Jackson without his mask during a breach of contract trial in Santa Barbara starkly revealed the result of 20 years of plastic surgery.

The bridge of his nose was covered with a sticking plaster and the tip appeared to be scarred, bruised and flaking.

One cosmetic surgeon said it looked as if his nose had disintegrated.

“You have to put in a support structure, like a tent pole,” Santa Monica surgeon Dr Harvey Zarem told the New York Daily News.

“This could have been a restoration of the tip using cartilage, bone or plastic.”

Cosmetic surgeon Dr Gerald Imber said: “Clearly, he had some sort of nasal-tip disaster.”

The tissue probably broke down after the singer had a support put in, he explained.

“Now, it looks like he has skin grafts of something to close it up.”

He said a collapsed nose was very rare, and he had not seen one in 15,000 operations.

One surgeon even put out a statement denying any responsibility for the state of the star’s face.

“Dr Steven Hoefflin has not done any of Michael Jackson’s nasal surgery since 1998, and had advised him against any further surgery,” said a lawyer for the Santa Monica doctor.

The reclusive pop star is being sued for £15 million by his long-time promoter, Marcel Avram, for allegedly backing out of two Millennium concerts scheduled for New Year’s Eve 1999.

Jackson maintains that it was Mr Avram, not himself, who cancelled the shows over concerns they would not be profitable.

The singer arrived in court four hours late yesterday and then asked the judge to delay next week’s scheduled testimony so he can travel to Germany to accept an award.

“The award is of deep importance to me, it’s philanthropic,” he told Superior Court Judge Zel Canter. “I’ve done a lot of work for children.”

I guess money can buy only so much. Too bad he felt as if he needed all that surgery. Is there a psychologist in the house? I bet the anwsers to MJ's motivations would be interesting. Everyone loves him in the 80's and he is unhappy in his body. I wonder if he wanted the body of Boy George?

IMHO. it looks like the plastic surgeon took Michael's his "mid-section" and grafted it onto his face, or maybe he's had one (face-lift) too many. That will explain why he looks so gross.

To be fair, I read in another article that Jackson appeared in court with that face mask he always wears in public and the judge made him take it of.  So he wasn't as ready for public viewing as he might have been.

That fellow is going to lose his nose.  Anyone ever hear of a story titled The Picture of Dorian Grey?

Here's my version of an old joke!

Hey did ya hear that Michael Jackson hasn't got a nose?

Psssh...this ain't new...his nose has been disintegrating since the late 80's yall. There is little that Mike can do that will make me raise an eyebrow...I mean, he'd have to marry a playmate of the year on national TV (and stay married for more than five minutes), move in with Dennis Rodman, then get busted on the freeway having a threesome with him and two hookers while he was driving to an Eminem concert before I'd say 'wow'

Poor guy...he once was cool :(

I saw this and I cracked up.  I showed it to some family and friends and they all thought it was hilarious.  I recently saw a photo of him standing next to Liz Taylor, and his face honestly looked like a skeleton.  Very disturbing.

This is the funniest thread I've read in quite a while.
He needs to get himself one of those pairs of glasses with the nose and mustache attached.
Then he could look like Groucho Michael Marx.
