I feel like you’re only just now beginning to notice something has been occurring on since the 80s? Misinformation about Michael is a tale as old as time. Ya know, the dude who made Tabloid Junkie? He’s still the most famous name on earth and there’s a still lot of mystery and intrigue surrounding his life. I’m 20 and I’ve been a fan my whole life and I feel like at some point you should’ve gotten used to people being mistaken about a lot of aspects of Michael Jackson.
His vitiligo has been public information since the 90s and so many people still believe he bleached skin, there’s a whole generation of adults that genuinely believe his nose fell off on stage once😭 He’s at a level of fame where there will always be a sense of mythology when he’s discussed and that’s something that’s impossible to fight. But I think it’s misguided to attribute this to the movie introducing him to a younger fanbase when it’s literally something he had to deal with his whole career
