What skin disease did Michael Jackson have that lightend his skin.?

According to this source, Michael Jackson’s skin color change had nothing to do with racism, shame of his ancestry or anything of the sort. In 1993, MJ revealed on the Oprah show that he had a skin condition named vitiligo that caused a lightening of his skin. His dermatologist at the time, Dr.Arnold Klein even verified that MJ was diagnosed with vitiligo and lupus in 1984. Both conditions can produce a lightening of the skin. There’s a strong genetic link to vitiligo, and it was shown to run in MJ’s family. 

Vitiligo can appear in unattractive splotchy patterns all over the body, so MJ may have also bleached his skin prior to reduce the uneven color patterns in his skin.

he didn’t have a skin disease, he painted himself white because he wanted to be white because he was a racist.

Some say he took drugs to alter his skin color and even it out because of the vitalego. He had a lot of self esteem issues due to his abusive father.
