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.

Why Don’t White People Get Out Raged Like Other People. I Think White People Understand You Can’t Expect Something For Nothing If You Want Something You Have To Work For The Money To Buy What You Want. That’s What I Was Taught When I Was young. Amen
Get over it
He’s to dark, find a whiter dude
Hahahah maybe a Mexican should play Michael Jackson
i dont care what his color is. He was a child molester. And mark he paid off the parents to keep their mouth shut.
I don’t know any black peoples who are white do you?
He wanted to be white
It’s ok, they’re gonna have a black kid play Macaulay Culkin
And there was a black wizard of oz
MJ is such a huge American icon. His music will live for generations. Having a white actor play him is an affront to his legacy. They should search as long as it takes to find a black girl to play MJ.
