Michael Jackson was rumored to be wearing prosthetic noses for a long time. In the 1980s to 1990s, Jackson allegedly had a large jar of prosthetic noses for disguise purposes. Jackson could use the prosthetic noses if he wanted to go out on a disguise.

Jackson’s former housekeeper at Neverland, Adrian McManus, said he kept the jar of noses in his wardrobe. Jackson used stage glue to adhere a nose to his face. McManus said some of the prosthetic noses had breathing holes while some lacked holes. McManus said Jackson’s nose had been giving him problems for a long time. Jackson’s nose was caved in. On some days, he wore plasters to help support his nose.

The latest news reports said Jackson’s nose was missing from his body at the morgue. If Jackson was wearing his prosthetic nose, it could have fallen off anytime. If Jackson had been wearing one, how could he breathe effectively when Dr Murray and the EMT performed CPR on him?

On June 25, 2009, the photo of Jackson on a gulley showed him with a respirator or some apparatus over his mouth. Jackson’s eyes were closed, his hair looked all right and his face looked peaceful. Only later did the leaked autopsy reports say Jackson had a wig on and now, a report said he had been wearing a prosthetic nose when he died.

What does a prosthetic nose look like?
