Concerns for Paris Jackson after Leaving Neverland release
In the aftermath of controversial documentary Leaving Neverland, which details child sexual abuse allegations made against Michael Jackson, concerns have been raised for the singer’s daughter, Paris Jackson.
Fans have been telling the 20-year-old to “stay strong” on social media and told the aspiring actress they were “sending her love and support”.
@ParisJackson Sending you love and support! We are the same age and I remember seeing you on TV saying how much you love your dad. ❤️

Some of the well-wishes come after Radar Online reported Paris is “out of control” having apparently been on a “two-day bender”.
She also reportedly got “into an explosive fight” with her boyfriend Gabriel Gunn, following some heavy partying.
In the wake of the controversial documentary detailing accusations of child sexual abuse from Wade Robson and James Safechuck against the King of Pop, Paris has remained relatively tight-lipped.
Last week, the model broke her silence on Twitter, telling people that while “injustices are frustrating and it’s easy to get worked up”, it’s better to calm down and look at the “bigger picture” instead of “acting out of rage.”
Reports state that the two-part documentary has been “devastating” and “painful” to the Jackson kids — including Pariss brothers Prince, 22 and Blanket, 17, who now goes by Bigi — because they know Wade, one of the accusers, who reportedly dated their cousin.
However, Paris hasn’t seen the film, a source told People magazine. And it seems unlikely she will.
Seemingly responding to comments from her father’s loyal fandom, Paris Tweeted, “Y’all take my life more seriously than I do. Calm yo tittaaaaysss.”

i didn’t mean to offend by expressing that titties should be calm, i know injustices are frustrating and it’s easy to get worked up. but reacting with a calm mind usually is more logical than acting out of rage and also…. it feels better to mellow out.

Hours later she added, “I didn’t mean to offend by expressing that titties should be calm, I know injustices are frustrating and it’s easy to get worked up. But reacting with a calm mind usually is more logical than acting out of rage and also…. it feels better to mellow out.”
Paris also said the world tears down “everyone with a good heart” who “tries to make a difference,” adding, “But do you really think that it’s possible to tear his name down? Like do you truly believe they stand a chance? Relax and have peace.”
yeah they do that to everyone with a good heart and tries to make a dfference but do you really think that it’s possible to tear his name down ? like do you truly believe they stand a chance ? relax and have peace.

While the documentary is certainly a compelling – and in some parts extremely difficult – watch there are some key aspects missing, including testimonials from Jackson’s former staff members, other young boys Jackson was associated with, Jackson’s own family, and the lengthy FBI investigation into the child molestation allegations.
Because of these omissions, the Jackson family, as well as many fans, have continually labelled Leaving Neverland “one-sided” and “biased”.
However the director, Dan Reed, has argued such omissions needed to be made in order to be able to focus on the specific stories of accusers Safechuck and Robson.
Jackson was acquitted of child molestation charges in 2005.
