It’s been eight years since Paris Jackson lost her father, Pop King Michael Jackson after he overdosed on painkillers in 2009.
Now the teen is speaking out in her first in depth interview with Rolling Stone.
“I consider myself black,” she told the publication, adding that her dad “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.”
She also revealed that she believes her famous father was murdered.
“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.”
