Why did Michael Jackson put so much cream or spray (whatever it was) on himself?

Although Jackson's skin color was a medium-brown color for the entire duration of his youth, his skin has lightened gradually since 1982, then it became light tan around 1987-1991, and is today a pale cream color. Jackson has attributed his changing skin color to vitiligo,[1] a skin disease in which the body develops antibodies against its own melanin, a body pigment, resulting in light patches and an eventual loss of all pigment. During court depositions in 1994, both Jackson's dermatologist Dr. Arnold Klein and his nurse (Deborah Rowe, whom Jackson later married) claimed that following a biopsy of his scalp in 1984, Jackson was diagnosed with lupus and vitiligo. As a result of this disorder, Jackson is said to use make-up to cover-up the imperfections in his skin and has denied numerous reports that he bleaches his skin. He has also been told by his dermatologist to avoid any exposure to the sun. Ever since then, Jackson has regularly worn long-sleeved shirts and trousers under an umbrella while in public to hide from the sun.

Why is skin tanning a multi-billion dollar industry despite the various health risks ? Don't worry about the King of Pop . Focus on yourself.

He didn't have a choice, he has Vitiligo and he didn't choose to have it!! Do you think people with cancer choose to have it??

because he wanted his fans to except him for who he is and not his colour or maybe he was tired of losing his white fans...
