It went against normal TV filming protocol, but they needed to keep the studio abnormally cold so that Jackson’s face wouldn’t start to fall off. http://www.vanityfair.com/magazine/archive/1995/09/orth199509 “And contrary to news-show procedures, the air-conditioning remained on loud while Sawyer interviewed Jackson, causing a strange background noise. The cool air was necessary, veteran soundmen say, because the lights on Jackson were so hot that his thick pancake makeup and lipstick would have melted otherwise, and his false eyelashes would have come off.” That’s an interesting fact and I totally believe it’s true.
