Answer 8

It was apparently caused my a rare skin disease. I don't think he woke up one day and decided he didn't want to be black anymore do you?

Answer 9

most likely surgery

Answer 10

He has disease, it affects many black people in the world. In fact, there is this black kid that was in my graduating class that has it. There is a famous sports anchor who also has it.

It removes all the pigment in your skin so you appear to be white when you're really black.  It comes on in splotches, so you sadly, mimic a cheetah.  I don't recall any of us making fun of Geoff when we were in grade school.  

Michael probably didn't want all the spots so he quickened the process. I wouldn't say he truly wanted the white skin back then, so it's easier to finish it up than continually apply make up.

Answer 15

He has a skin disease that affects the pigmentation that cause the color change.

Answer 16

There are lots of suspected reasons. The reconstructive facial surgery after his face was set on fire at the Pepsi concert could have contributed. He also claims to suffer from vitiligo and lupus, which dye his skin. Because vitiligo creates patches of colour, he applies make up, which makes his skin look paler. And, of course, camera flash and lighting on photographs and videos might have some small part in it.

Answer 17

You never know dude, maybe because at his time more music opportunities were given to whites, maybe im not sure, could be anything.
