Dr. Conrad Murray, Michael Jackson’s cardiologist and personal physician, stated that Michael Jackson was chemically castrated by his father Joe Jackson around age 12. In a 2018 video statement, Murray said exactly: “The cruelty expressed by Michael that he experienced at the hand of his father… The fact that he was chemically castrated to maintain his high-pitched voice is beyond words.”

Murray quoted Michael as saying that he felt “like a neutered dog”: https://youtu.be/s\_bPhTY3UEY?si=xyLN\_WdDo82q3fBy

Dr. Alain Branchereau (who never treated Jackson) speculated that the singer’s high-pitched voice resulted from being given the anti-androgen drug cyproterone acetate around age 12 to treat acne. Branchereau theorized this would have blocked normal puberty and larynx development, producing a “castrato-like” effect where “the drug blocks puberty, the voice can’t mature.”

i know a lot of you people like to say body language doesn’t matter, but in my opinion Frank Cascio was the most UNconvincing defender.

If nothing * ever * happened , I don’t think he would have had to repeat that mantra 5 x times. He is also shaking his head NO while claiming “I really believe it was guilt.”

It is BAFFLING to me how anybody could believe this man when he was “defending” Michael. Frank didn’t seem to believe a word of what Frank was saying.

Note: You’re not allowed to speculate about his sexual orientation in that other subreddit, which is why I am posting it here.

What was the psychology behind turning these White or mixed, Latino looking boys into his mini-mes?

He dressed them in matching clothes, made them grow their hair long, even made some of them (like Omer) wear makeup just like him.

Were they an “idealized” version of himself — a prepubescent Caucasian boy with fine features?

He was literally hiding in plain sight…
.

Has anyone else noticed that Omer Bhatti seems… really sad lately?
Almost all of his Instagram posts revolve around healing, transformation, or personal growth. Obviously none of us know what’s going on in his personal life, but something I’ve found interesting is how he responds whenever Michael Jackson gets brought up.
Within the last few weeks:
• A fan commented, “Looks like MJ.” Omer simply replied, “No.”
• Under a childhood photo, someone commented, “The boy with the saddest eyes.” Omer liked the comment.
• Another MJ fan commented that Michael was his dad. Omer replied, “He was not my Dad.”
He never seems to engage positively with MJ-related comments. No excitement about the new biopic, no nostalgia, nothing. If anything, his replies come across as distant or passive.
Then there are the fans commenting things like, “Stay a good friend and don’t turn on MJ like the others,” which I find odd in itself. It suggests some fans are already thinking in those terms and don’t even hide it.
I’m not saying this proves anything. It doesn’t. But if Omer was as close to Michael as people say, I can’t help but wonder why he seems to consistently shut down MJ discussions instead of embracing them. To me, he’d be one of the most interesting people to hear from because of how close he reportedly was.
Curious if anyone else has noticed this or has a different interpretation.
