Exactly what was going on with his weight? Even in the Bashir documentary he appears healthy.
It seems like from 2005 onwards he just became skeletal. He also never seemed to recover based on on the pictures I've seen. He's at his lowest weight at the "James Brown funeral". His face was emaciated. The cheek bone implants he had at one time became like "two bars" on each side of his face because there was zero fat disguising them anymore. His face appeared skeletal. And of course this continued leading up to his death.
It looked like Anorexia and I don't think anyone "caught" on.

Shockingly he was on weightloss pills at the end of his life as well. Unbelievable.

I don’t think he had cheekbone implants, but then again no one knew but him
I remember him being underweight as early as 2003 on an awards show and was concerned, but other fans shamed me for expressing that, thinking I was criticizing him when I wasn’t

Yeah. He looked very under weight then as well. It's shocking. That would have been the end of the 2003 right? His face was "round" during the Bashir sit down interview scenes which could have ended as late as early 2003. The documentary coming out seemed to "trigger" him even before the arrest. Very unfortunate. |

I think it's been said by lots of people years back in the media before years back, but even if the Anesthetic poisoning hadn't occured he still was at risk for going into cardiac arrest on stage and collapsing due to his weight. AEG tried to paint him as "fit" during that 2013 wrongful death lawsuit but according to his makeup artist he was bones. |

So.....your thing is start a bunch of negative threads on topics that have been discussed a million times before? Neat shtick, I guess. |

I guess some fans were enablers too then who thought he was perfect when he was far from it though still great |

I was 13 in the grocery store and saw it and my eyes instantly went to his cheeks and neck.. painfully thin. The press ran stories on countless women with eating disorders and how they were worried about them back then (Nicole Richie is a good example). But bizarrely no concern for an Anorexic male. |

That picture was lightened for some reason, he was a little bit darker at the actual award show Yeah anorexia in men is misunderstood but hopefully there are more conversations about it now. He even admitted to anorexia in the Glenda tapes |

He even admitted to anorexia in the Glenda tapes I was trying to post two pictures but the forum format won't allow it. It looks like he lost over 100 pounds within two years after the documentary. I've heard rumors he was 84 pounds at his trial and from the images it certainly looks like that might have been true. He was physically healthy, even a bit "chubby" at the start of the 2000's during the MSG show. It's shocking that the media never really called attention to this. They talked about everything else but how seriously underweight he was. |

He was one of the world’s biggest punching bags when he was alive. That’s why no one gave a shit and were fake af after he died
