Egyptian Bust Resembles MJ
Visitors to the Chicago Field Museum have been remarking that the visage of a 3,000 year old Egyptian limestone bust closely resembles Michael Jackson.
The sculpture has been on display at the museum since 1988, but only began drawing attention because of the likeness recently. The bust was carved sometime between 1550 and 1050 BC. It is unlikely that Michael ever had the chance to see the statuette.
Also ironically, the period in which it was produced was during the reign of King Ramses.
Fans will recall that the part of King Ramses was played by Eddie Murphy in the short film, 'Remember The Time.'
