Stevie Wonder is not actually blind and fakes his blindness for public sympathy.
Stevie Wonder is genuinely blind, having lost his sight due to retinopathy of prematurity while in the hospital shortly after birth. His blindness is well-documented by medical professionals and confirmed by family members. He has been blind since infancy. Internet conspiracy theories claiming he fakes his blindness are baseless and rely on isolated moments or video footage taken out of context.
