Not to defend Micheal Jackson, but he claims that he lightened his skinned due to a medical condition called vitaligo (which is when spots of the skin loses pigmentation).
In regards to a black person, are you inferring that by putting on white(I mean literally the color white) paint on their face? I'm confused....
My whole point is if I wanted to dress up as Britney Spears
why would I have to put on a very light flesh tone make-up? Wouldn't my tasteless outfit be enough?
*lol*
