The Michael Jackson biopic "Michael" may be making headlines for its premiere this week, but not all the attention has been positive — especially from the King of Pop's own daughter.

Paris Jackson has spoken out against claims that she was involved in or supportive of the film. Her comments resurfaced this week as the movie opened to mixed reviews from critics and audiences alike.

The controversy began when one of the film's stars suggested in an interview that Paris and her brother Prince had been supportive of the project. According to Paris, however, that characterization was not accurate. She has made it clear that her alleged involvement was misrepresented to the public.

The biopic, which stars Jaafar Jackson as his uncle Michael, covers key moments from the legendary performer's life and career. While Jaafar's performance has received some praise, the film itself has faced criticism for its approach to telling Michael Jackson's complex story.

For Paris, who has spent years building her own identity separate from her father's legacy, the situation highlights the ongoing challenges of being connected to one of the most famous names in entertainment history. Her willingness to speak publicly about the film shows that she is not afraid to set the record straight when she feels the truth has been distorted.
