“An ancient Egyptian bust on display at the Field Museum in Chicago has been the focus of interest since the star’s death as visitors double-take at the eerie similarities between the 3,000-year-old statue and the singer.
The limestone statue - which depicts an unidentified woman - went on display at the museum in 1988 and was carved during the New Kingdom Period, dating from between 1550 BC to 1050 BC.
Museum curator Jim Phillips said staff had been “inundated” with inquiries from Jackson fans since the star’s similarities to the bust were pointed out in a recent newspaper article.”

Would be good if the two images could stay a bit longer before the morph effect kicked in.
Uncanny
Those ancient Egyptians were amazing. They even got the nose right.
The nose is broken off, no?
Put a warning on that! And agree with John…slower morph would be awesome.
So, the theory then would be that Jackson saw the statue at some point and re-created his face to be a look-alike?? It wouldn’t look like his original mug.
