An Icon Paris Jackson

''Music is like the air I breathe – it is awareness, it is being able to create something bigger than me, it is a way for me to express myself and to externalise what I feel inside''

Musician. Lightworker. Treehugger. Activist. Give peace a chance. Those are the words Paris Jackson chooses for her Instagram bio. When asked to elaborate? “[I’m] a person with a kind heart. [I’m] honest, loyal, motivated, and passionate, and have a positive energy and frequency,” she says. “I’m also a bit of a geek, who loves Star Wars, The Lord Of The Rings, Harry Potter, and all the Marvel movies. I would like to be remembered for my dedication – until death – towards the environment, animals, and human and civil rights. And also as someone who always fought to change the system. Power to the people!”

Born in Beverly Hills, California, Jackson is a free spirit. An independence hard-won after years of fighting against obsessive intrusion into her life, given the legacy of one of the most influential families in music history, especially her father, Michael Jackson. She began her career as a model signed to IMG, which also counts Gisele Bündchen, Hailey Bieber, and Gigi and Bella Hadid among its clients, before expanding into music, television, and film.
