Paris Jackson’s Blonde Ambition

The National ENQUIRER spotted Michael Jackson's daughter Paris Jackson getting coffee in Los Angeles yesterday — sporting a dramatically different look! Her close-cropped blonde hair is quite a change from the long, dark locks she used to sport. Is the makeover another consequence of her breakup with former beau Chester Castellaw?

The ENQUIRER was all over that split back in December — which actually put her grandmother (Michael's mother) Katherine, at ease. The matriarch was worried that Chester was eyeing the billion-dollar inheritance headed Paris’ way when she turns 18. That magic day is exactly one month from today: April 3.

Although Paris will officially be an adult then, it hasn’t been easy growing up in the public eye. While chopping off her hair and dyeing in may be perfectly normal behavior for any other teen girl, doing it with the world watching is something different.

In fact, she can’t get with anything, it seems. Take the dragon tattoo she got a while back. It was only temporary, but it caused quite a stir. The underage Paris has also taken her lumps for smoking, but remained unapologetic. "I get it, guys," said Paris. "Smoking isn't cool. I get it. Sure as hell beats everything else in my past, though!"

Sounds like no one should get bent out of shape over a new hairdo when there are a lot of worse indulgences out there. She's already admitted to attending AA meetings.
