It’s her very first magazine cover but Paris Jackson isn’t holding anything back inside her latest interview with Rolling Stone on “Life after Neverland.”
Inside the magazine she touches on some heavy and shocking topics regarding her mental health but she is also talks about the good times with her dad, Michael Jackson: “My dad raised me in a very open-minded house, I was 8-years-old, in love with this female on the cover of a magazine. Instead of yelling at me, like most homophobic parents, he was making fun of me, like, ‘Oh, you got yourself a girlfriend.'”
She also went on to say that she never questioned whether Michael was her father: “He is my father. He will always be my father. He never wasn’t, and he never will not be. People that knew him really well say they see him in me, that it’s almost scary.”
She continued, explaining, “I consider myself black. [Michael] would look me in the eyes and he’d point his finger at me and he’d be like, ‘You’re black. Be proud of your roots.’ And I’d be like, ‘OK, he’s my dad, why would he lie to me?’ So I just believe what he told me. ‘Cause, to my knowledge, he’s never lied to me.”
But despite everything that has happened, Paris is certain that her father’s death was not accidental: “It’s obvious. All arrows point to that. It sounds like a total conspiracy theory and it sounds like bullshit, but all real fans and everybody in the family knows it. It was a setup. It was bullshit.”
