I see he didn't let his mommy pick out his wardrobe for that photo shoot. When he's not wearing a too-long tie he's wearing a too-short jacket.

I am the last person to comment on what a person is wearing/looks like, but... good god. It's not just the short coat; it's the look of decay on the face.

Also wondering if the jacket was photoshopped. Because...good god.

No, not photoshopped. His tuxedo received many comments at the time. Here's an article from USA Today.

True.. in the US and most of the world, however, we are not done yet. We are not done until Pakistan and Afghanistan are Polio-free. Ironically, some of the anti-vaxer crap here are the same ones we have heard from the ultra-conservative mullahs over over there.

Sharks are electric!
I believe this was actually proven in Sharknado II: Electric Boogaloo.
But the sunshine aye shall light the sky,
As round and round we run;
And the truth shall ever come uppermost,
And justice shall be done.

- Charles Mackay, "Eternal Justice"
