The only daughter of 'Beat It' and 'Billie Jean' star Michael Jackson has claimed that the King of Pop was murdered in an interview.

Paris Jackson, 18, was born to second wife Debbie Rowe and was 11 when Michael Jackson passed away in 2009.

Speaking to Rolling Stone in her first-ever in-depth interview, Paris says she’s “absolutely” convinced that her father was murdered, saying: “He would drop hints about people being out to get him. And at some point he was like, ‘They’re gonna kill me one day’. It sounds like a total conspiracy theory and it sounds like bullshit, but all real fans and everybody in the family knows it. It was a setup. It was bullshit.”

Of trying to find justice the blue eyed model says, “It’s a chess game. And I am trying to play the chess game the right way. And that’s all I can say about that right now.”

Paris also defended her father in terms of widespread accusations that he was a child molester. "Picture your parent crying to you about the world hating him for something he didn’t do,” she says. “And for me, he was the only thing that mattered. To see my entire world in pain, I started to hate the world because of what they were doing to him. I’m like, ‘How can people be so mean?'”

Elsewhere, Paris addresses accusations that Michael Jackson is not her biological father. She believes Jackson is her biological father and that she considers herself black.

She said that her dad "would look me in the eyes and he'd point his finger at me and he'd be like, 'You're black. Be proud of your roots.' And I'd be like, 'OK, he's my dad, why would he lie to me?' So I just believe what he told me. 'Cause, to my knowledge, he's never lied to me.

Also in the interview she say that she didn’t know she had a living mother until she was 10 years old. She started researching her mum online, and they got together when Paris was 13.
