Michael Jackson Returns With Shocking TikTok Account
Tik-Tokers around the world are arguing about the identity of a new user who looks remarkably like Michael Jackson, the world-famous pop artist whose death a decade ago had been accepted as fact.
Advocates for Jackson’s resurrection say the user is a dead ringer, while others believe the user is a Michael Jackson look alike being filmed without consent, as has been done with less famous people. In these "fake people" accounts, a hidden TikTok user takes videos and pictures of unsuspecting targets and posts them to the accounts along with profile data, and then messages from the account.
He looks just like Jackson," account stan Ben Thriller affirmed. "I saw one video of him eating a banana bowl." "I have seen more videos than you," said mega-influencer Michael Dona, "and it looks to me like like the look-alike is not as en-goldened of the camera as his platium predecessor.”
