Family, Legacy, and Resilience: Lessons from Paris Jackson’s Journey After Her Father’s Passing

Finding Her Voice in Music and Modeling

In recent years, Paris has stepped into the public eye not as “Michael Jackson’s daughter,” but as her own person. She has pursued modeling, acting, and music. In a candid interview with supermodel Naomi Campbell, she spoke about her career, her upbringing, and how she has learned to navigate fame on her own terms.
