Musician. Lightworker. Treehugger. Activist. Give peace a chance. So Paris Jackson shares his profile on Instagram. At L’Officiel Italia he describes himself as «a person with a kind, honest, loyal, motivated, passionate heart, with positive energy and frequency. I’m also a little geek, with a passion for “Star Wars”, “The Lord of the Rings”, “Harry Potter” and all the Marvel movies. I would like to be remembered for my commitment – until death – towards the environment, animals and human and civil rights. In addition to someone who has always struggled to change the system. Power to the people! “Born in Beverly Hills, California, Paris is a free spirit. Independence gained after years of struggle against obsessive intrusion into one’s life, given the legacy of one of the most influential families in music history and in particular of his father Michael Jackson . Her career began as a model, represented by IMG Models, the same as Gisele Bündchen, Hailey Baldwin, Gigi and Bella Hadid , and then expanded to music, television and cinema.«Music is like the air I breathe, it is awareness, it is being able to create something bigger than me, it is a way to express myself, and externalize what I feel inside. It is difficult to describe these sensations in words, but the first that comes to my mind is gratitude, gratitude for being able to be part of this world. I don’t know how my songs are born, I only know that I feel the need to get them out, and every time it happens it is an act of purification. I like writing rock songs, because that’s what I love. But I’m also good at writing sad music, acoustic and folk pieces ». With his partner, Gabriel Glenn, he formed the band The Soundflowers.«Before Gabriel, I have never had such a profound collaboration with anyone, our creations are born naturally, develop organically. We are working on our first album, we have a lot of material, I think it could be ready next autumn. Meeting Gabriel was a revelation, thanks to him I discovered that I was born a musician, music makes me happy, makes me feel good and therefore I have no choice but to continue playing and singing » .

Among his fashion icons Stevie Nicks and Janis Joplin . «I love these alpha women, who have broken various barriers, not only in music, but also in fashion. To me they are legendary, I don’t know if there will ever be anyone like them again. I like their style, when I dress, my priority is comfort, that’s why I like the fashion of the 70s, it’s comfortable but also stylish » . The choice to be part of the fashion universe is an opportunity for Paris to increase collective awareness against the insecurities that fashion creates.«It’s time to fight the unreachable stereotypes created by fashion houses, unfortunately in the world we live in it is practically impossible to feel comfortable, especially with the media and social bombardment. I am not the only one of my generation to have insecurities, although I have learned to accept myself as I am. I wish all girls like me felt beautiful in their own skin. Beauty is subjective, there is no single canon. Beauty is not measured in numbers, shapes, sizes, dimensions or colors. True beauty should be measured by a person’s character, integrity, intentions, mentality or what he says. From how they behave and from their heart. I am human, not a doll, I have my defects, acne, cellulite, scars. The idea of perfection is ridiculous..link for more: lofficielitalia.com

Before becoming a model and musician, Paris thought about embarking on a career in psychiatry. «I always hated being in the spotlight, but thanks to fashion I thought I would expand my platform and instead of helping one patient at a time, I could reach thousands of people and spread my messages. I must also thank the Elizabeth Taylor AIDS Foundation who proposed me to become an ambassador and who gives me the opportunity to be present on the field to help sick people. Elizabeth was very close to my father, she was my godmother. I learned a lot from her, to have respect for people and to love animals. What is happening in Australia with fires breaks my heart, the loss of millions of defenseless creatures is devastating, unfortunately it is not only the animals that are suffering, there are also missing people. If you can donate, there are various organizations to contribute to, such as NSW Rural Fire Service, Country Fire Authority, The Salvation Army Australia, WIRES Au- stralian Wildlife Rescue Organization and WWF-Australia who need our help. The important thing is to spread the word, from there we can start acting ».

In her own future she also has a role as an actress in “The Space Between”, directed by Rachel Winter , producer of “Dallas Buyers Club”.“It’s a movie about the 90’s rock & roll scene in Los Angeles. Many of my inspirations for changing the world come from cinematic references and the Beatles. The first song that changed my life and I will never forget is “In my lifeˮ, music and beautiful text, they also played it at the Kurt Cobain memorial. And then I also add Fleetwood Mac, The Eagles, Future Islands, and Manchester Orchestra to my Top list. Fortunately the new generation is growing and tired of undergoing, it demands change and honesty from the government. We are tired of unrealistic lies and expectations in politics. Racists, homophobes, sexists will lose against the strength and determination of people with an open mind, not obstructed by stupidity and racism “.
