Paris Jackson is following in her dad, Michael Jackson's musical footsteps!
The King of Pop made a surprise appearance in the trailer for the 22-year-old's new reality show for Facebook Watch, "Unfiltered: Paris Jackson & Gabriel Glenn." The short teaser featured Michael interacting with a much younger Paris in some touching home videos. MJ asks Paris what she wants to be when she grows up and she quickly responds, "I do what you do," she said, "dance and sing!"

In the short, 1 minute clip, Paris addressed her turbulent relationship with the public eye. She revealed that she wasn't interested in sharing her life with the media and her father's fans before but this time it's different.
"You forget that I am human," the adult Paris said. "I was against letting the world in because it wasn't a choice."
"I wasn't ready then," she continued. "But I feel like I'm ready now."
The show focuses on Jackson's relationship with her musician boyfriend, Gabriel Glenn, and the formation of their indie band, "The Soundflowers."

Jackson has a few busy weeks ahead of her because all her hard work is about to pay off! Not only does she have a new reality show that debuts on June 30 at 3 am PT/6 am ET on Facebook Watch, but she also is releasing her band's self-titled EP on 6/23!
"I want to influence self-acceptance and courage," Paris said. "I would love if my music connects with someone and helps in some way."
"A Jackson doing Folk/Indie... not what they expect," she concluded.

Paris shared a special tribute to TJ Jackson on Father's Day to show how much he means to her. TJ looked out for her siblings and her after her father passed away. Her post featured two cute photos that feature the dynamic duo having fun in front of the Louvre Museum in Paris, France.
"happy fathers day papa t ♥️ i love you with all of my heart and i can’t even begin to express my gratitude for all you’ve done. i owe you my life," Paris wrote on Instagram.
Like every true indie singer, Paris has lots of cool tattoos that help express her feelings. Back in May, she shares some video of her inking her foot and it looked like she has a heavy hand. She simply captioned her tattoo pic with ? puppy feet emojis. The foot, believe it or not, is one of the most painful places to get a tattoo because there is very little fat on the foot (we know from personal experience).
It’s difficult to describe the cool design and we are not sure of the meaning but it appeared to be a symbol composed of a squiggly line and a curved top. We are sure the design has a special meaning to Paris because she is a pretty artsy person but regardless, it looks pretty cool.
