Paris Jackson, the 15-year-old daughter of the late Michael Jackson, posted several cryptic messages on Twitter before she reportedly attempted suicide early Wednesday morning, allegedly in response to not being allowed to attend a Marilyn Manson concert.
One of the tweets included lyrics to "Yesterday" from the Beatles.
yesterday , all my troubles seemed so far awaynow it looks as though they're here to stay— Paris Jacksoη (@ParisJackson) June 5, 2013
Entertainment Tonight broke the news, reporting that Paris Jackson's mother, Debbie Rowe, said her daughter had cuts on her wrists when she was hospitalized. Fire officials have described a 911 call in Jackson's neighborhood as a "possible overdose" call.
Before Paris Jackson tweeted the lyrics, she posted a handful of vague messages:
omg— Paris Jacksoη (@ParisJackson) June 5, 2013
that conversation escalated quickly — Paris Jacksoη (@ParisJackson) June 5, 2013
i wonder why tears are salty ?— Paris Jacksoη (@ParisJackson) June 5, 2013
Her tweets are darkly reminiscent of rapper Freddy E's pre-suicide tweets, which he sent in January before fatally shooting himself.
Her grandmother, Katherine Jackson, asks people to respect the family's privacy and says her granddaughter is "physically fine and is getting appropriate medical attention." Rowe also told ET Paris Jackson had "a lot going on [lately]."
Michael Jackson died in June of 2009. Tearfully, Paris Jackson spoke publicly for the first time at his funeral, saying, "Ever since I was born, Daddy has been the best father you could ever imagine ... I just wanted to say I love him ... so much."
