In 2002, when visiting Germany for the Bambi Awards, controversy arose when he pretended to push his youngest son, who was 8 months old, out of the veranda at a hotel. She was high enough to be a danger to her child, so it was certainly careless to hold her child dangerously there and try to show it. However, at the time, Michael was firmly holding the child in his arms, showed him briefly for about 2 to 3 seconds, and took him straight into the room. However, the media processed this scene in slow motion and criticized him by calling him a child abuser, and Korean newspapers also reported it with headlines like 'dangerous prank'. In the documentary <Living with Michael Jackson>, which aired the following year, Jackson once explained the case and expressed the pressure he felt from the media coverage. His best friend Elizabeth Taylor and his ex-wife Debbie Rowe also criticized the media reports. This incident itself was parodied a lot in the US in a bad sense, and even posthumously, in 2011, a statue reproducing the scene was installed, but was demolished due to backlash from fans. Rapper Eminem, who will be mentioned later, once mocked Michael Jackson by holding a doll out on the veranda and shaking it.
8. Appearance[edit]
Michael Jackson's original appearance is not the typical appearance of black people we commonly think of. [45] In a word, they are mixed race, not pure blacks. In particular, since they are of Native American descent from their great-great-grandfathers and great-grandfathers, their cheekbones are prominent and the so-called t-zone is relatively less developed than blacks. By the way, it's a little-known fact, but Native Americans are the most biologically similar to Asians. As you can see from the faces of the brothers, the older sister, Latoya Jackson, has almost white skin, and the sons of Michael's nephew, Tito Jackson, have strong Hispanic features. There is an anecdote that his father, Joe Jackson, said when Michael was first born, "Are you my son?" In the Black or White and Smile music videos, his appearance has a very strong Hispanic feel.
