POP/ROCK - July 29, 1992

More on Michael: Having sued the London Daily Mirror for libel and breach of contract on Monday, pop star Michael Jackson on Tuesday won a 14-day injunction to stop the newspaper from publishing a photograph it says proves he is disfigured. The picture reportedly was taken at a concert in Munich last month. Earlier Tuesday, Jackson’s lawyer told BBC radio that the 33-year-old singer is willing to appear in court to prove he is not disfigured. “He is going to stand up in the witness box and let the jury see his face,” Bertram Fields said. “It will be very quickly decided . . . that he is not scarred all over his face, that he doesn’t have a hole in his nose, that he’s not cruelly disfigured and that he’s not a monster.” Jackson starts a series of concerts in Britain on Thursday.
