Paris Jackson tweeted sad lyrics before suicide attempt

Los Angeles: Michael Jackson’s family is saying little about the hospitalisation of his 15-year-old daughter while pleading for privacy and saying nothing about the cause of her ailment. Paris Jackson was “physically fine and is getting appropriate medical attention,” attorney Perry Sanders Jr., said in a statement Wednesday. All fire and sheriff’s officials would say is that they transported someone from a home on Paris’ suburban Calabasas street in the middle of the night for a possible overdose. They did not release any identifying information or additional details. [caption id=“attachment_847953” align=“alignleft” width=“380”]  Paris Jackson is pictured here (centre) with her siblings.

We truly appreciate you respecting our family’s privacy at this time.” On Tuesday, Paris hinted at her state of mind on Twitter, posting, “I wonder why tears are salty?” followed by lyrics from the Beatles’ song “Yesterday”: “yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away, now it looks as though they’re here to stay.” Since Michael Jackson’s death in 2009, Paris has emerged as the most visible of his children, granting interviews to Oprah Winfrey and Ellen DeGeneres, appearing in magazine articles and amassing more than a million followers on Twitter. She has also expressed interest in starting a singing career and has plans to star in a movie. A 20-minute video of the teen applying makeup was posted to YouTube last week. It shows Jackson in what she describes as her bedroom playfully demonstrating how she does her eye makeup. She also makes goofy faces and says, “I need serious help. I’m crazy!” Paris wrote on Twitter that she doesn’t know how the video, in which she repeatedly asserts, “I am so weird,” ended up on YouTube. “I hope you guys liked it tho and didn’t think i’m too crazy,” she wrote. “i get weird when i’m not around people lol.” Katherine Jackson shares guardianship of her son’s three children with the singer’s nephew, TJ Jackson. Paris and Prince are listed as plaintiffs in a lawsuit filed by their grandmother Katherine Jackson against concert giant AEG Live LLC, who she claims is responsible for her son’s death. The lawsuit claims AEG failed to properly investigate the doctor convicted of causing the singer’s death, and pushed the superstar to rehearse and perform a planned series of 50 comeback shows titled “This Is It.” Paris and Prince are listed as potential witnesses in the case, which is in its sixth week of trial. Marvin S. Putnam, a defense attorney for AEG Live, joined in the family’s calls for privacy. “There’s a real person involved here,” Putnam said. “There’s a 15-year-old girl and something incredibly tragic has happened that none of us know why and I think it would really be in everyone’s best interest and particularly in her best interest if rather than blowing this up into something else, that they were given a little bit of privacy to deal with something that has to be a tragic, tragic moment for all of them.” “She’s 15,” he said. “Someone should give her a break.” AP
