Holiday shopping is such a chore, isn’t it? For stars, holiday shopping is even more stressful. Not only do you have to worry about parking, other shoppers, and finding great items, you’ve got to avoid paparazzi. Maybe that’s why Michael Jackson covered his own face completely with bandages and gauze before heading out in Las Vegas to get some shopping done. Or maybe there’s an altogether much odder reason. Whatever it is, the star’s reps say Jacko hasn’t gone under the knife recently and can offer no explanation on Jackson’s covered-up look. Chalk it up as just another weird display from the Prince of Peculiar.
