Paris Jackson finally speaks out.

HBO finally aired the long-awaited Leaving Neverland documentary which explores the allegations made against Michael Jackson by Wade Robson and James Safechuck. There's been a divided reaction with many believing the alleged victims while others think it's simply a money grab. Paris Jackson hasn't said anything about the documentary, although reports claimed that she didn't believe the allegations. However, she took to Twitter today to break her silence on the matter.

“I actually haven’t made any statements yet, especially regarding how it affects my work life. you guys are reaching a bit. at least this wasn’t a disgusting and attacking article though,” Paris wrote in a now-deleted tweet. Adding, "ya’ll take my life more seriously than I do.”

She offered advice to anyone who's been frustrated over these allegations or any other injustices going on, writing, “I know injustices are frustrating and it’s easy to get worked up. but reacting with a calm mind usually is more logical than acting out of rage and also…. it feels better to mellow out.”

A fan then replied, saying that the "bigger picture" is the fact that her father's name is being smeared. "not love and peace and trying to carry that message out? tabloids and lies are the bigger picture? i’ll pray for you," she responded.
