With a fortune of 150 million USD, Paris Jackson, daughter of the “king of pop” Michael Jackson, has experienced many storms and sadness. Recently, Paris has been constantly facing mental difficulties.

According to Page Six, Paris Jackson was recently spotted crying while walking alone in Malibu, California (USA). She was wearing simple clothes and sneakers. Paris Jackson’s representative refused to reveal the reason why the singer cried. 

Paris Jackson (born 1998) is one of the children of Michael Jackson and his second wife – Debbie Rowe. She has an older brother named Prince and a younger brother Bigi Jackson (formerly known as Blanket)

As the daughter of one of the world’s most famous stars, Paris Jackson had a turbulent childhood, always in the spotlight of international media. When Paris was 11 years old, her father suddenly passed away. Paris and her siblings moved to live with their grandmother.

Paris’ childhood was full of upheavals. The girl herself had to be hospitalized for psychological treatment and admitted that the shock of losing her father turned her life upside down.

As an adult, Paris took more control of her life, finding joy in her work and relationships. Of Michael Jackson’s three children, Paris Jackson is the only one to follow in her father’s footsteps.

Michael Jackson’s daughter experiments with different genres of music. The 27-year-old singer has a good experience with folk music and is also good at playing the electric guitar. 

Paris Jackson is recognized internationally as a talented songwriter and singer. She signed with Republic Records in 2020. Her debut single, Let Down , was released in October 2020 to positive reviews.

Her debut album, Wilted , was released in November of the same year. Her music is often eclectic, with simple melodies and soulful lyrics. She has also performed on many stages, music festivals and tours.

Last month, Paris Jackson faced backlash for scheduling a performance on the anniversary of her father’s death. The Let Down singer later said: “One of my dates with Incubus and the Manchester Orchestra was on June 25. It was a very negative day for me and my family.” 

Paris further explained that she was not the main artist of the concert and therefore did not get to choose the date of the event. The daughter of the “King of Pop” also emphasized that she was just a normal artist and never enjoyed special privileges. 

Paris says she doesn’t have a tour bus or a band. She travels in a van with her sound system and her fiancé Justin Long.

Paris Jackson said that her achievements in her singing career came from her own efforts.

Earlier this year, Paris Jackson attracted attention when she posted a video announcing her 5th anniversary of successfully quitting alcohol and drugs with a strong and meaningful message on her personal page.

She wrote: “Hi, I’m PK and I used to be an alcoholic and heroin addict. Today marks 5 years clean from alcohol and heroin. Because I’m sober, I can smile, make music, and experience the joy of loving my dogs and cats.”

The U30 female singer confided that she often releases her emotions through music and tattoos on her body. The daughter of the world-famous pop star has a total of more than 50 different tattoos, covering her entire body. 

Paris’ tattoos all have different meanings. She also has some tattoos in memory of her father and is said to have one dedicated to her grandmother Katherine Jackson. There are also tattoos that Paris got to mark a milestone in her life. 

Explaining her love for tattoos, Paris said: “The intricacy of tattoos will always be a controversial topic. Some people love them, some people hate them. I have always appreciated art, especially when it means something to me.”

“Today, I can look at my hands and see art that means something to me. I no longer see the dark past. My scars and self-hatred are covered by love, creativity, and depth. Of course, I will always carry my past with me, but I see tattoos as a way to change for the better and become more complete,” Paris confided.

Paris has been struggling with her mental health lately. The star’s daughter admits that life has never been easy for her. During her tough times, Paris feels lucky to have her partner, Justin Long, always by her side and supporting her. 

In December 2024, she announced her engagement to music producer Justin Long. The couple has been secretly dating since 2022. Music and passion for art are considered the bond that connects the two artists.

According to Forbes, as of this year, Paris Jackson has assets of up to 150 million USD. Of which, the 27-year-old singer inherited 80 million USD from her famous father. Currently, the amount of money Paris has in her hands continues to “expand” every year.
