What Michael Jackson Should Look Like
by Mangesh Hattikudur - August 28, 2008 - 11:54 AM

mjackson.jpgI think this is genius. The Daily Mail has printed pics of what the Thriller-star should look like if he hadn’t taken a surgical knife to the face. Apparently, they took old pics of the famous moonwalker and used PC’s to age Michael’s mug appropriately.

Of course, my only question is why stop there when there are so many other stars to expose. If I had access to this wonderful technology (and enough cash on hand), I’d be commissioning a whole slew of  un-botoxed, un-plastic surgeried, and definitely un-Toupeed celeb pics, and then use them to create a giant matching quiz.

  1. Wow, that picture kind of makes him look like a creepy child molester. Er, wait…

  2. That is absolutely nuts. Thanks for sharing this!

  3. Start by commissioning a shot of Jerry Jones. I can still remember the “oh, my god” reaction the first time I saw his post-surgery face.

  4. What a handsome older man he COULD have been; instead of a weird old lady!

  5. What the hell?!!! He’s black???

  6. You could also do celebrities who passed on too early. What would James Dean look like at age 50? Or Marilyn Monroe?

  7. Well jeez, he looks like a normal human being. Who woulda thunk it?

  8. @Marty: I love that idea!

  9. crazy

  10. Why does he look like a morphed George Clooney?

  11. How timely…tomorrow is Michael Jackson’s birthday. The only reason I know this is because it’s my birthday too, although I am quite a few years younger than everybody’s favorite crazy train wreck pop singer.

  12. Atleast he looks better than what he looks like now. but yeah, he still does look like a pedophile.

  13. Jeez yall, he still would have enough money for a decent haircut, don’t you think?

  14. What is black when it is young and white when it is an adult?

    Swan?

    No, its Michael Jackson!

  15. I’d be interested to see how close the software product is to real life by viewing real aged photo vs. cyber.

  16. Heh, he would’ve looked so much better than he is now…

  17. Ding, ding, ding! It’s your wake-up call…who cares about MJ these days?

  18. he becomes the dude from silver spoons and fresh prince?!

  19. I don’t know. Maybe it’s just me, but the face looks too big for his head.

  20. honestly i think he look much better like these….. i wish he never made him self freak like now … i used to like him a lot when he was normal black man … but what he did to him self it effect also in his music,,, he had a gift of the look beside the voice.. his eyes were nice.. but now he is nothing but freak..

  21. ilov michael no matter wat he looks like i just want to say happy birthday to the KING OF POP!

  22. Except he’d still be white cuz he has vitiligo, doesn’t he?

  23. Why does he start off black on his forehead then white towards his chin ? ha.

  24. They didn’t grow the ears enough. they’d be at least 50% larger.

  25. There’s a problem with the software – his face is disproportionately large for his head.

  26. Well he did the world a favor by looking the way he looks, if all people morphed into looking and dressing like what’s really inside them we would never have Ted Bundy or Ed Gein. I say let him do his thing, and parents should be accountable.

  27. That’s freakin’ crazy. I found a side by side comparison with how he really looks now: http://www.showchange.com/content/142-what-michael-jackson-should-look

  28. except he has vitiligo so he’s still be white!

  29. No Heaven Clark his old pics shows that he was not white but had black coloration in skin.

  30. Had he been straight, he would’ve really been handsome. Too late for this though. The icon is gone.

  31. Only in America can a poor black boy grow up to be a rich white woman.

  32. I am so sick of hearing about this frigging idiot he was a child molester and you guys make him sound like a frigging hero i am so glad he is dead thank god now all the little boys in world are safe from the freak!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  33. All the negative comments are so ridiculous. What happened to innocent until proven guilty? I’m embarassed to exist alongside people who can say they are glad someone like MJ is dead.

  34. He looks like a cross between alfonso ribeiro and barack obama. he would have been a hot and sexy older man if did not go under the knife.

  35. RE: Vitiligo Cure: “No Heaven Clark his old pics shows that he was not white but had black coloration in skin.”

    Um exactly, you idiot! Thats exactly what vitiligo does! Its a disorder in which pigment cells are destroyed! So yes, he would still have been white, surgery or not.

  36. why are all of you talking about the way he looks? He can dance and sing right? That’s all that matters. Who cares what he does to his body. It’s not your body so there’s nothing to say about it. I think who keeps talking about MJ like that needs to shut up. If you don’t have anything good to say about Michael then stay off this website dummies. And gatorgirl really needs to shut up.

  37. Your worst enemy is yourself when it
    comes to apprearances. He was never satisfied, Maybe he was trying to run away from himself. He had a mindset to look a certain way and he was never happy at the outcome of the surgery everytime

  38. I love MJ, hate all the haters who go online just to express their hate for a truley talented and loving of gods children man. I think he looks much better the way he does than if he had aged “correctly.” But in my opinion MJ did age correctly. I don’t think he ever did anything to any teenage boy because I read an artical about the case and it sound’s like the father of the boy made it up to stop MJ from being a popular music icon!
