Perhaps this could be one of the questions we will receive answers to in the weeks ahead. There is some evidence floating around indicating that Jackson indeed may have been a "strict vegetarian," which could lead one to infer that he was actually a vegan.

He has also been featured on Happy Cow's list of famous vegetarians. Although Jackson may have followed a vegan diet and likey considered himself an "animal lover," did he really live a life of non-exploitation?
Michael had been criticized by PETA for keeping exotic animals as pets, keeping animals in unacceptable conditions at the Neverland Ranch, and planning to use animals in his live shows.
So was Michael Jackson a vegan? Maybe by diet, but certainly not through adherence to a compassionate lifestyle. It's definitely possible that Jackson had yet to make all the connections clear in his mind about the use of animals in all aspects of life, but he probably would have chosen to defend animals to the best of his abilities considering the compassion he showed for those around him.
