    If Michael Jackson only dyed his skin to become white then how are his kids all white? Surely his DNA would still be black?!


    Edit - please move if necessary..

    Important this question is, not "is he fit to be a father" or "can he be trusted around his kids" but "why aren't his kids black". You sir are pure class.... :rolleyes:

    Jackson's skin was a medium-brown color for the entire duration of his youth, but starting in the early 1980s, his skin gradually grew paler. This change gained widespread media coverage, including rumors that Jackson was bleaching his skin.[4] In the mid-1980s, Jackson was diagnosed with vitiligo and lupus; the latter is in remission in Jackson's case, both illnesses make him sensitive to sunlight.

    I'm not one for saying FAIL, but seriously OP, where have you been since the 1980's?? :rolleyes:

    No, plastic surgery involves editing the persons DNA. It takes days.

    Is he their genetic father or are they adopted?

    Whatever about their colour, they are living in one hell of a weird world.

    I wasn't around for very much of the 80's.

    So it kinda happened naturally and wasn't dyed?

    Also, even if the woman was white his kids would still be half black?

    I think you need to do a bit of research.
    It all depends of the weakness or strength of the DNA and which is dominant at the time of fertilisation.
    Its basic biology 101.

    Dear God, our education system is either really screwed and/or there is a lot of students just not listening or studying!

    Its funny how people are more concerned with the colour of his childrens skin and not the daily buggerings they most certainly recieve.

    Shame on you all...

    I had to convince a girl that she had 25ft of intestine to which she replies 'But I'm only 5ft 8'. :confused:

    Not necessarily. I know two kids with one white and one black parent. One of the brothers has white skin and features and the other has black features and a skin colour that is gradually getting darker as they get older.
