Things aren't going well for Michael Jackson. It has emerged why he always covers his nose, it's not just his terrible plastic surgery he's covering up, he actually has a flesh-eating superbug (a story almost designed specially for the Daily Mail), that is destroying his face (even more).

A source told The Sun: "Michael Jackson has a severe staph infection that he contracted during work to reconstruct his nose.

"The disease is an MRSA-style infection because it is resistant to conventional antibiotics, so he has been visiting a clinic to get antibiotics via an IV drip.

"The infection has spread throughout his face and body and is being aggressively treated by doctors.

"There's a chance it could turn into a flesh-eating disorder where it begins to kill off his skin so he's being very carefully monitored."
