Paris Jackson is planning her first-ever tour!

The second child and only daughter of Michael Jackson, the King of Pop music, has followed her late father's footsteps to the entertainment industry.

However, TMZ recently shared that the aspiring musician's debut tour was being promoted by none other than AEG; the same company sued for the "Smooth Criminal" artist's death.

Paris Jackson Joins Hands With The Infamous AEG Company

Before MJ's death, the celebrated artist went on a final tour that was unfortunately cut short by his untimely demise.

The "Billie Jean" singer's last show was promoted by AEG, who would allegedly be involved in the late artist's daughter's first tour as a solo artist.

According to sources, Paris would be hitting the road this March, and her initial gig was scheduled for her namesake city in France.

The weekend show in Paris was being promoted by AEG, which came as a surprise given the Jackson family's dark past with the company.

A year after the "Beat It" singer passed away in 2009, Katherine, the Pop icon's mother, sued the promoter for her son's wrongful death.

The lawsuit claimed that AEG was partially responsible for MJ's death for hiring Dr. Conrad Murray, the chart-toppers personal physician at the time of his death.

Unfortunately for the Jackson family, the jury ruled in favor of the company, stating that AEG wasn't accountable for the Hollywood Walk of Fame alum's death caused by drug abuse.

Given that Paris's grandmother blamed the promoter for not prioritizing the "Beat It" musician's health, it was baffling how the young songstress joined hands with AEG for her debut tour.

As shared by the news outlet, the company would solely be promoting the 23-year-old entertainer's show in Paris, while the rest of the tour would take place in the States.

For the upcoming gig, fans would get to watch the songstress perform alongside Patrick Droney in cities like Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Seattle, Portland, and more.

Last year, The Blast revealed that the beloved child star Macaulay Culkin helped Paris during her auditions for the hit series "American Horror Stories."

During his lifetime, the King of Pop was good friends with Culkin and even named the "Home Alone" star his children's godfather.

Naturally, after MJ's death, the "RICHIE RICH" actor fulfilled this role to the best of his abilities by becoming his late friend's children's guardian and mentor. 

As for Paris, the 23-year-old previously confessed that she got some of her best acting tips and tricks from Culkin, especially while she was auditioning for "American Horror Stories."

According to the "let down" singer, her godfather advised her on the best way to portray the given character during auditions. In her words:

"He said overdo it at certain points, kind of like, overact and kind of make it theatrical."

In addition to helping her ace the series tryouts, "The Good Son" star was also his God daughter's confidant while they were on the show.

At the time, the "Habit" actress revealed that the cast signed a strict NDA agreement forbidding them from revealing the show's contents.

This is why, whenever Paris felt like discussing the thriller series, she would call Culkin since the pair were both members of the "part of the American Horror Story" franchise.

During an episode of Paris's Facebook Watch series "Unfiltered: Paris Jackson and Gabriel Glenn," the 23-year-old shared juicy details about her late father. 

The "Gringo" actress stated that the late entertainer was aware of her bisexual nature, but rather than judge her romantic interests, MJ always made his daughter feel loved.
