Paris Jackson, the singer, model and second child of Michael Jackson, found herself at the center of an online exchange after a social media user criticized her tattoos. Rather than letting the criticism get under her skin, Jackson responded with a witty comeback that quickly turned the tables on the troll.

The exchange took place in response to an August 12 post shared by E! News on Instagram. The media brand shared a post about Jackson meeting her mother Debbie Rowe for the first time at age 15. The photo featured the model in a white lace top, with her collection of colorful chakras down her chest, on full display.

Paris Jackson's chakra chest tattoo caught the eye of a troll, who commented this under the post:

“She is gorgeous, but those tattoos just make her look dirty and takes away from her look.''

Michael Jackson's daughter was quick to fire back, proving that she does not let critics get under her skin. Check out her witty comeback:

“Oh no what ever will i do 😰 (i’m dirty even without the tattoos).''

Known for her bold personal style and unapologetic approach to self-expression, Jackson has never been shy about showcasing her vast collection of tattoos.

More on this in our story.


Paris Jackson had her first tattoo at a young age

It was quite on-brand for Paris Jackson to defend her tattoos, as the actress is known for her body art, which is not just random patterns on her skin but carries deep meaning, including many tributes to her late father.

In a 2022 interview with People Magazine, Jackson revealed that her relationship with body art started at a young age, when she got an impromptu alien tattoo and the rest is history. Michael Jackson's daughter added that she had a strong desire for tattoos all over her body. The actress even tattooed a squiggle-shaped design below her right pinky toe herself during the COVID-19 pandemic, which she shared with her fans via social media.

Paris Jackson's iconic chakra tattoos, which recently became the subject of an Internet troll, date back to 2017. The actress also shared this design, which represents energy points, via her Instagram stories.

While each tattoo holds a special meaning for the actress, fans cannot help but adore the designs that pay tribute to her late father, who died in 2009 at the age of 50. After Michael Jackson's passing, his daughter has inked his “Dangerous” album cover on her forearm, the word “Applehead” (his pet name for loved ones) on her foot and “Queen of my Heart” in his handwriting on her wrist.

Paris Jackson's other popular tattoos include matching roses with friend Cara Delevingne and a line from author J.R.R. Tolkien’s “Lord of the Rings,” on her neck, meaning “a light from the shadows [shall spring].”

Additionally, alluding to her history of addiction and self-harm, Jackson referred to her tattoos as marks of healing in a statement:

“I can look at my inner forearms and see art that has meaning . . . I don’t see a dark past anymore. My scars and past of self-hatred have been covered by loving marks, creativity, ingenuity . . . and depth.”

While Jackson was an intravenous dr*g addict by the age of 15, she has been sober from alcohol and h*roin for more than six years.

Paris Jackson's second album “Happiest Day of My Life,” dropped on August 12.
