Paris Jackson, the 19-year-old daughter of late King of Pop, Michael Jackson reached out to her fans to thank them for their photo edits of her, but had one request, that to keep her skin tone natural.
She wrote, “I appreciate everything y'all make for me, I enjoy every single edit I see," the biracial model and actress tweeted Wednesday. "But please stop lightening my skin to make me look more white. And please stop darkening my skin to make me look more mixed. I am what I am. I'm aware of what I look like and (I'm) finally happy with it.”
She had previously opened up about her self-esteem issues and the depression and anxiety that caused her to attempt suicide three times, the first when she was just 15 years old. She said, “Plenty of people think I'm ugly, and plenty of people don't. But there's a moment when I'm modelling where I forget about my self-esteem issues and focus on what the photographer's telling me and I feel pretty. And in that sense, it's selfish.”
Paris Jackson will be now seen in Nash Edgerton's film Gringo, that marks her debut as an actress and which is set to hit theatres on March 9, 2018.
