Randy Jackson suffers from what illness?
Randy Jackson was stopped by the show to celebrate the program's anniversary.
As a result of Randy's thinner appearance, a number of admirers turned to social media while watching the program.
One fan wrote on Twitter: "Randy Jackson on American Idol Reunion appears to be a completely different person... Is he all right? #AmericanIdol."
Randy's slimmer appearance is due to his Type 2 Diabetes diagnosis.
In 2002, the well-known musician was diagnosed with the condition.
Randy's 2008 self-help book, Body With Soul, detailed his battles with Type 2 Diabetes.
Randy has addressed public health issues before, including on the 20th anniversary of American Idol.
He highlighted his diabetes fight and dietary practices during a January 2021 appearance on The Today Show.
On The Today Show, he shared similar thoughts to those presented in Body With Soul.
"Diets, liquid fasts, weight-loss drugs, you name it, none of them ever worked for long," the producer wrote.
He Said: When I ended myself in the hospital, though, I had to confront the fact that all of those tactics had failed.
