Michael Jackson is going to be portrayed by Joseph Fiennes, a white actor, in an upcoming Hollywood comedy. This announcement is causing some uproar among the politically correct, who apparently think Hollywood is trying to get away with white-washing one of the most prolific Black singers in pop music history.
Michael Jackson famously suffered from a condition known as vitiligo, a skin condition that kills or otherwise disables pigment cells in a person’s skin. Some conspiracy theorists insisted that Jackson purposefully changed his skin color in order to appeal to a wider audience, because they apparently think the moon walk and “Annie Are You Okay?” just weren’t enough to draw in White audiences.
The fact that Jackson is going to be played by a White actor and not that the comedy he is being portrayed in centers around escaping New York after the attacks on September 11th, is drawing criticism.

So they rather have a black actor that they have to paint white!? I mean come on people!
Robert D Freeman how many of these people are fictional characters u are comparing apples to pineapples Michael Jackson was a real person not a person made up in a book or comics oh FYI all the stories that take place in Egypt where played by whites and guess what that’s an African country scarface again fictional character but him and most of the Latino roles in the movie played by white men
Rod Sklar how did this become a political thing u must be a party whore
Why…, did he look black to you? :/
MICHAEL ALWAYS WANTED TO BE WHITE.
Stop lying. There was a petition to stop Annie and then a call for people not to go see it. Do research before you post lies
Michael wanted nothing more than to be white, so I’m sure this would absolutely please him! 🙂 Like it or not.
Alie what difference does it make if he is half black if all you see and treat him like is less than human.
Well well well I have to agree I hate to see black women with f**e hair be proud of what u are!!! Now let’s begin how come all the roles of Jesus in movies have white actors who look nothing like the description the bible gives??? How come movies that are supposed to take place in ancient Egypt an African country seem to be all white??? Michael Jackson didn’t bleach his skin but he did have nose work done trying to fit into what he thinks should be beautiful and that’s sad but bottom line Michael Jackson was black not white and he was a real person no matter how lite his skin was he could never say he was white!!! Maybe we should do a movie about jfk a great president tragically killed staring Samuel l Jackson as jfk
Now let’s talk about things of importance, like the “New World Order/takeover, Muslim being pushed upon us by our Politician’s :/
