Michael Jackson's Nose

How did he do ANYTHING? How was his brain still working? I find it amazing that he could get one foot in front of the other, much less dance, or function at all.

OP is Kelly Osbourne, finding a kindred spirit

He may have breathed through his mouth.

LOL at R2.

He's extremely lucky that the surgeries didn't impact his singing tone.

If only he had left his nose alone after his first surgery. During the Thriller era, his nose was very masculine and perfect for his face. He looked great. There was probably some dent or other tiny flaw somewhere that only he could see, causing him to go back over and over again for more surgery. In plastic surgery, there's always a risk of having a bad result (even if the surgeon does everything right); therefore it's usually not sensible to risk "good enough" for "perfect".

R2 wins. Thread closed. Thank you in advance for your cooperation.

A nose is a hole. You don't need the outside, unless you have glasses.

You can only do so much and he obviously had collapsed bone/cartilage.

He sure looked stupid

A friend who worked costuming for a few of his shows in the 80s said MJ wore a prosthetic nose piece at that time.

"He's extremely lucky that the surgeries didn't impact his singing tone. "

Freddie Mercury wouldn't fix his protruding teeth, because he was afraid it'd change his singing voice, and Jackson had how many surgeries on his nose and re-arranged his upper airway?

I would assume it actually did affect his voice, how could it not! But I'm not enough of a fan to say whether there was any change in his singing voice as the 80s went on, not enough of a tech expert to tell what changes in a voice can be compensated for in the studio, and not enough of a singer to tell whether changing the nose can affect falsetto-whisper singing. Really, did Jackson ever sing full out after he started having the surgeries?
