Paris Jackson’s Emotional Birthday Message To Late Father, Michael Jackson

Happy birthday to the late king of pop, Michael Jackson, who would have been 59 today, August 29.

As folks around the world remember and celebrate the life of the late singer, MJ’s daughter Paris is saluting her father with an emotional birthday message. “Birthday wishes to the love of my life, the one person who showed me what passion truly was, the one that gave me solid morals to live by and how to dream,” she wrote on Instagram.

Jackson continued, “I will never feel love again the way i did with you. you are always with me and i am always with you. though i am not you, and you are not me, i know with all of my being that we are one. and our souls will never change in that way. thank you for the magic, forever and always.”

The 19-year-old also included a beautiful photo of her kissing Michael.

Paris, who is currently testing her hand at modeling and starring on Fox’s Star, has always had a tight knit bond with Jackson. Earlier this year, the teen opened up to Harpers Bazaar about her relationship with MJ.

“I wasn’t around a lot of other girls. When I was a kid, I was with my dad and my two brothers [Prince Jackson 20, and Blanket Jackson, 15],” Paris said. “Growing up, I was treated as the favorite because I was the only girl. I was the princess; I was perfect in my dad’s eyes.”

As for rumors that Michael is not her biological father, Paris shut them down telling the magazine, “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 added, “I consider myself black. He 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.”
