Washington, July 11 (ANI): Michael Jackson’s skin doctor has revealed that he was rebuilding the King of Pop’s scarred face for his ‘This Is It’ comeback shows.
In an interview to U.S. TV host Larry King, Arnold Klein said that he was desperately trying to make Jackson look “more normal” for his 50-date run at London’s O2 Arena, as years of cosmetic surgery had left the ‘Thriller’ hitmaker’s face completely ravaged.
“He came to me because, basically, I was sort of rebuilding his face, because he had severe acne and scarring,” Contactmusic quoted him as saying.
“He had scarring from having a lot of cosmetic surgery. And I was rebuilding his face so he looked much more normal,” he added.
However, Klein insists that the rumours that the star’s nose had fallen off his face were false.
“Contrary to what people said, he could not take off his nose. His nose was attached,” he said.
“But it looked too small. And I just was trying to get him ready to do the concert, because in the way he looked in his face, he wanted it to be absolutely as perfect as it could be,” he added. (ANI)
