Well, I reckon kicking off a film career at 13 years of age, when all you really crave "is to be normal", is stupid, but each to their own.
Michael Jackson's daughter has admitted - on Ellen, 'cause she's got a new movie to promote - that the masks he used to make his children wear were "stupid". Paris, who agreed to appear on the show after Lindsay Lohan missed her interview slot after failing to catch a flight from Hawaii to Los Angeles (to prance around a deserted beach for money no doubt), told Ellen wearing the mask was "a bit weird... I'm like: 'This is stupid, why am I wearing a mask?' But I kind of realised the older I got, like, he only tried to protect us. And he'd explain that to us, too."
Nowadays, she adds, she lives a relatively normal life, adding: "I'm treated the same. When I came to school, they didn't know who I was. I was like, yes, I have a chance to be normal." And now she's on a quest to jeopardise that coveted normality to star in a film based on a fantasy novel titled Lundon's Bridge And The Three Keys. Paris will play Lundon.
As it happens, Paris has had quite a bit of improve experience thanks to her dad: "My dad was in the movie Moonwalker, and I knew he could sing really well but I didn't know he could act. I saw that and I said: 'Wow, I want to be just like him'. We would do improv together. He would give us little scenarios. He would go: 'Okay, in this scene you're going to cry,' and I'd cry on the spot."
I would've too if I were you.
