‘NOT MY ROLE TO DEFEND DAD’
In documentary film Leaving Neverland, two former child companions of Michael Jackson allege the superstar singer groomed and raped them when they were children.
Earlier this week, Paris said it’s “not her role” to defend her controversial father.
The model wrote on Twitter: “There’s nothing I can say that hasn’t already been said in regards to defense.”
She went on to add that she supports the Jackson family’s long-standing efforts to clear his name.
Paris spoke out after being followed by paparazzi while she was in New Orleans on Thursday.
One fan suggested she was being hounded because people wanted to hear her views on the claims in documentary film Leaving Neverland, where two former child companions of Michael Jackson allege the superstar singer groomed and raped them when they were little boys.
In response, she praised her second cousin Taj Jackson who is the face of the media campaign defending his uncle.
“Taj is doing a perfect job,” said Paris. “I support him but that’s not my role.
“I’m just tryna get everyone to chill out and go with the flow, be mellow and think about the bigger picture. That’s me.”
The Jackson estate also filed a $75million lawsuit against HBO ahead of its premiere, calling the documentary “unvetted propaganda to shamelessly exploit an innocent man no longer here to defend himself”.
Michael Jackson strongly denied all sexual abuse allegations made against him up until his death in 2009.
As well as Paris, the star is survived by 22-year-old Prince, born Michael Joseph Prince Jackson Jr, and 17-year-old Blanket, born Prince Michael Jackson II.
