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.

If this actor does justice to Michael Jackson in this film excellent. I don’t believe Michael would play the race card. I think Michael had a heart for people no matter what color their skin is. He knew color is only skin deep what about the heart.
who cares at all about such a foolish bunch of c**p. We have serious problems to tend to in this country. This is total foolish c**p and so was the original malfunctinal and total disgraceful Micheal J.
he wanted to be white so this is his chance lol
WE have a racist country/ world wether we like it or not
Lol! 🙂
In all honesty Micheal Jackson should have been played by a white woman
So funny! Micheal bleached his skin and the actor looks darker than Micheal.
Did You Expect Anything Else People Are Outraged About Everything And Anything Now A Days. Amen
Oh get over it
I don’t think it’s the actors fault he is white.
