Paris Jackson Signs With IMG Models
Paris Jackson is ready for her big moment.
The only daughter of the late Michael Jackson has just signed with modeling agency IMG Models. She shared the good news on Instagram on Thursday, March 3, 2017. "Thank you @imgmodels i feel very lucky and blessed," she wrote, alongside a gorgeous photo of herself with a bold red lip.
IMG Models posted the same photo on their account, adding "NOW REPRESENTING: #ParisJackson."
Jackson recently had her first major interview with Rolling Stone for their February 2017 cover. In the issue, she not only addresses life after the passing of her beloved (though controversial) music legend father, but also how modeling has helped her feel confident in her skin.
"I've had self-esteem issues for a really, really long time," the 18-year-old states. "Plenty of people think I'm ugly, and plenty of people don't. But there's a moment when I'm modeling where I forget about my self-esteem issues and focus on what the photographer's telling me—and I feel pretty."
According to the Mirror, IMG Models also represents the likes of Hailey Baldwin, Ashley Graham, and Gigi and Bella Hadid.
Wonder how her dad would react to the start of Jackson's modeling career? The teen told Rolling Stone some wise words that the "Thriller" singer shared with her, "If you wanna be bigger than me, you can. If you don't want to be at all, you can. But I just want you to be happy."
