Michael Jackson was secretly bald
Some of the things revealed by Michael Jackson’s autopsy weren’t that surprising. For example, the autopsy confirmed the singer suffered from vitiligo, a condition that affected his skin color. Accordingly, the singer had tattooed his lips pink and tattooed his eyebrows in order to keep up appearances.
One of the more shocking revelations of the autopsy, however, is that Jackson was mostly bald. On the sides of his head, he hardly had any hair, and he constantly wore wigs for performances and public appearances. To make the wigs look more realistic, he even had a secret tattoo in the least expected place.
