Michael Jackson has an adult daughter, but she is not spoiled by such close attention as her dad once was. After the death of her parent, Paris Jackson experienced a severe psychological crisis, but now, having matured, she feels confident and brings the principles of body positivity to the masses. “I look how I want, I do what I want” – that’s her motto.
Attempted suicide, 80 tattoos, unshaven armpits – Paris regularly ends up in the tabloids.
Why doesn’t she look like her dad?
Paris is Michael Jackson’s daughter from his second marriage, with nurse Debbie Rowe. The girl was born in 1998 in California. Paris is the pop idol’s only daughter (Jackson has two other sons, one of whom is also from Debbie). Her godparents are Macaulay Culkin, known to everyone from the film “Home Alone”, and the legendary actress Elizabeth Taylor.
Everyone was surprised by the appearance of the pop celebrity’s daughter. Despite the fact that Michael Jackson was born dark-skinned, his daughter has fair skin and eyes of azure green, almost transparent. There are practically no Negroid features in her face either. Experts explain this by the fact that in Michael Jackson’s family, people with light skin were previously born, which means that in the case of Paris, whose mother was also European, this gene became dominant. She inherited green eyes from her paternal grandfather.
It is also possible that all three of Jackson’s children (the rest also have light skin) were born from a donor.
After divorcing his wife (the marriage was essentially fictitious), Michael Jackson received full rights to raise his son and daughter (Paris was about two years old at the time).
Death of father and career
Together with her brothers, the star heiress grew up on a ranch. If it was necessary to go out with their father, she and Jackson’s other children put on masks – the pop idol did this for safety reasons and to protect the children from the prying attention of fans and the press.
However, in 2010, after the death of Michael Jackson, the children became more open: they appeared on the Oprah Winfrey Show with their grandmother and cousins.
As a child, Paris was very attached to her father, for her he was not the king of pop music, but just “daddy,” and she, as she later admitted, as a child did not even really realize how famous he was. His death was a blow to the teenage girl. The difficult experience of losing her father, as well as problems with classmates at school, drove Paris to the point that she attempted suicide, but, fortunately, survived.
Growing up, Paris decided, like her father, to take up music. In 2018, she and her boyfriend Gabriel Glenn created the rock band The Soundflowers, where the girl acted as a vocalist. She also plays the ukulele. Jackson’s daughter managed to release two albums and sign a contract with Republic Records as a solo artist. She constantly gives concerts.
In addition, Paris tried herself as a model and actress. And if she had success in the first area (the girl was published in famous magazines, and at the age of 12 she was named the Most Beautiful Teenager in the World), then she did not succeed in cinema. She starred in several films, and all of her works, alas, were not particularly successful.
Paris has a turbulent personal life: she has been in serious relationships several times. The girl separated from her last boyfriend, Glenn, in 2020, and now she is rumored to be alone. There were a lot of rumors about her.
So, when Paris was only 16, evil tongues were gossiping that she was pregnant (in the end, this information was not confirmed), and Michael Jackson’s daughter was at one time credited with an affair with actress and model Cara Delevingne.
Tattoos and no waxing
However, it is not Paris’s personal life or work that has attracted the most attention from the public: the public often discusses her appearance. Some people don’t like her ears that stick out wide (however, knowing this peculiarity of hers, the girl tries to choose hairstyles that cover her ears). Others are outraged by her tattoos: the fact is that Paris has about 80 of them and it cannot be said that they look aesthetically pleasing or in any single style.
“Yes, perhaps Jackson’s daughter has a pretty face and very beautiful eyes, but all this pales against the background of her terrible tattoos, which give her a shabby look,” “It feels like some kind of garbage is stuck to her skin and she urgently needs to go to the shower to scrape it off,” this is what evil tongues write on the Internet.
However, Paris recently stunned viewers and colleagues by appearing on the Grammy Awards red carpet without her tattoos. The girl appeared in a very open dress: most of her body was bare, a long neckline exposed her legs, and everyone clearly saw that there were no tattoos. The audience was very surprised: how is this possible? After all, before it was impossible not to notice a celebrity’s tattoo – they covered her body so abundantly.
The secret of this transformation turned out to be simple. Paris didn’t remove all her tattoos at all, but simply covered them up. With this, she advertised the cosmetics company with which she entered into an agreement. The celebrity’s absolutely clear skin eloquently proves the high effectiveness of the foundation. As part of the contract, the cosmetics company even filmed a video in which Paris Jackson applies a miracle foundation to her skin.
However, the cunning photographers present at the Grammys again gave evil tongues a reason for gossip: thanks to the celebrity’s photographs, everyone saw that the girl’s armpits were not shaved. However, those who have known Paris for a long time were not surprised, because Jackson’s daughter adheres to the philosophy of body positivity. She believes that a woman should not “improve” herself through force, and that what is natural is not ugly. “No waxing! Why should a woman change only to please public opinion?” – this is the position of Michael Jackson’s daughter.
By the way, she doesn’t shave not only her armpits, but also her legs, but thanks to the aforementioned foundation, this detail went unnoticed by the public.
There are still many legends and rumors surrounding Paris’s father, the talented and scandalous King of Pop. Almost 15 years have passed since his death, but interest around Jackson continues. So a biopic about him will probably turn into a sensation.
