ON COPING WITH HE DAD’S DEATH:

“They always say, ‘Time heals.’ But it really doesn’t. You just get used to it…I live life with the mentality of ‘OK, I lost the only thing that has ever been important to me.’ So going forward, anything bad that happens can’t be nearly as bad as what happened before. So I can handle it.”

 

ON HER DAD’S DEATH/BELIEVES HE WAS MURDERED:

“He would drop hints about people being out to get him.” “All arrows point to [murder]…”It sounds like a total conspiracy theory and it sounds like bullsh*t, but all real fans and everybody in the family knows it. It was a setup. It was bullsh*t.”

(NOTE: Dr. Conrad Murray was convicted of involuntary manslaughter for providing the late ‘King of Pop’ with the drugs that eventually killed him).

 

ON BEING SEXUALLY ASSAULTED AT 14:

“I don’t wanna give too many details, but it was not a good experience at all, and it was really hard for me, and, at the time, I didn’t tell anybody.”

She added, “It was just self-hatred. Low self-esteem, thinking that I couldn’t do anything right, not thinking I was worthy of living anymore.”. “It was great for me…I’m a completely different person.”

 

Paris tried to kill herself when she was 15. She eventually was enrolled in a therapeutic school.

Today, Paris is a lot better. She’s happy and healthy and lives at her father’s estate. She also has a boyfriend, Michael Snoddy.
