Milk-carton mug seeks ‘real’ Michael Jackson

 Survey: Did plastic surgery help Michael Jackson’s career?

Michael Jackson without surgery

Have you seen this man? He was last seen in his early 20s, shortly before a series of plastic-surgery operations from which a different person emerged.

The photo on the milk carton above is a reconstruction of what a surgery-free Michael Jackson might look like today at age 50, based on photos when he was younger.

For an alternative vision, see reconstructions by New York City police forensic artist Stephen Mancusi:

    Thanks to the British Daily Mail for its hypothetical reconstruction. Thanks also to Tamara Chuang, the Gadgetress, for suggesting that a wisecrack I made about Michael Jackson could be Photoshopped.
