Michael Jackson Fans Called Out Over Their Deranged Reaction To Paris Jackson Talking About Her Late Dad
Paris reflected on Domingo reaching out ahead of the biopic:
“I really appreciated the sentiment of it, because, you know, there's lots of miscommunications and things get twisted and all that.”
Domingo also spoke about Paris in a WSJ Magazine interview published Tuesday, saying he hopes she will “eventually loves the tribute that we made about her father.”
Paris detailed her response to Colman Domingo:
“I responded to him probably a couple months ago at this point, I just sent a voice memo telling him I appreciated him as an artist and wishing him and my cousin success, and joy, and happiness.”
The film, made with the involvement of Michael Jackson’s estate, marks Jaafar Jackson’s feature film debut. The cast also includes Miles Teller, Laura Harrier, Kat Graham, Larenz Tate, Derek Luke, and Nia Long as Katherine Jackson.
Paris was asked what kind of story she wanted out there about her father:
“Love and light.”
You can watch the interview here:
The understated response quickly became the focal point of backlash online.
Overly parasocial trolls soon flooded the video with criticism, with some claiming Paris Jackson lacked the authority to speak on her own father’s legacy. Several responses suggested that longtime fans had a deeper understanding of Michael Jackson than his daughter.
One comment dismissed Paris Jackson’s perspective:
“As much as I have respect for her. She don’t know him when we did. Love her But her insight is minimal.”
Born in 1998, Paris Jackson is the middle child and only daughter of Michael Jackson and Debbie Rowe. She and her older brother, Prince, were born during Jackson’s marriage to Rowe, while their younger brother, Bigi, was born via surrogate.
Paris has consistently identified Michael as her father and has publicly defended his legacy, including during his 2009 memorial, where she called him the “best father.” She was 11 when he died.
Still, that context did little to quiet critics:
“She didn’t even know MJ 😂She knew her dad for 9 years. We literally known him for 50yrs.”
Others echoed similar sentiments, focusing on the film's depiction of Michael Jackson’s life.
A third commenter criticized her relevance to the biopic’s timeframe:
“With all due respect, she wasn't even a thought in the time period this movie is set in.”
The volume and tone of the reactions prompted pushback from other users, who called out the idea that fans could claim a deeper understanding of Michael Jackson than his own daughter. Many defended Paris, pointing to the deeply personal nature of her relationship with her father and criticizing what they described as parasocial overreach.

Paris Jackson is continuing to focus on her own work. She’s set to release new music, including the single " Zombies in Love, " on March 13, 2026, and is scheduled to perform at BottleRock Napa Valley on May 23.
At the same time, she remains locked in an ongoing legal dispute involving her father’s estate. On April 6, Jackson filed new documents accusing executors John Branca and John McClain of using a recent status report to “mock and belittle” her, according to filings obtained by People.
Paris, 28, is a beneficiary of the estate alongside her brothers Prince, 29, and Bigi, 24, and has alleged the executors are abusing their roles for personal gain, which they deny. The dispute centers on the estate’s financial accounting, with Jackson calling for “an efficient, transparent, and orderly process” and accusing the executors of “operat[ing] in the dark.”
Michael Jackson was more than $500 million in debt when he died in 2009. Executors say they transformed the estate into a “powerhouse and a force in the music business.”

Riley Gaines Ripped For Bonkers Attempt To Discredit Tim Walz After He Condemns Trump's Genocidal Threat To Iran
Before the ceasefire was announced, his full threat, published on Truth Social, amplified fears about him having access to the nuclear codes:
"A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again. I don’t want that to happen, but it probably will. However, now that we have Complete and Total Regime Change, where different, smarter, and less radicalized minds prevail, maybe something revolutionarily wonderful can happen, WHO KNOWS?"
"We will find out tonight, one of the most important moments in the long and complex history of the World. 47 years of extortion, corruption, and death, will finally end. God Bless the Great People of Iran!"
You can see his post below.

Walz gave the following succinct response to this genocidal threat:
"The President has lost his mind."
You can see his post below.
Gaines thought she had the perfect "gotcha!" when she responded with:
"If the man who required tampons in 4th grade boy's bathrooms thinks you've lost your mind, it's a pretty good sign you're completely sane."
You can see her post below.
Conservatives have dubbed Walz "Tampon Tim" following his approval of a 2023 bill that requires schools to provide free menstrual products in all public school bathrooms.
The Minnesota law, which took effect on January 1, 2024, mandates that menstrual products—including pads, tampons, and other items—“must be available to all menstruating students in restrooms regularly used by students in grades 4 to 12 according to a plan developed by the school district.”
Minnesota State Representative Sandra Feist, a Democrat and the chief author of HF 2497, the bill mandating schools provide free menstrual products in all public school bathrooms, told the New York Times that it was important to make menstrual products available to transgender students so they wouldn't have to ask for them.
It figures we'd hear this sort of complaint from Gaines, who has consistently opposed the rights of trans athletes, particularly since her fifth-place tie with trans University of Pennsylvania swimmer Lia Thomas in the women's 200m freestyle final at the National Collegiate Athletics Association championships.
Gaines has argued that sharing fifth place with a trans woman amounts to being deprived of a rightful victory—and it's downright weird to see her bring her transphobic crusade to the forefront at a moment when world leaders are genuinely alarmed about the possibility of a nuclear clash between major powers.
She was swiftly called out.
In the social media race, Gaines happens to finish dead last.
Anti-Trump Conservative Epically Sounds Off On MAGA Voters Who Suddenly Have 'Buyer's Remorse'
In her video, Cupp overlaid the message “We told you,” along with a caption stating that critics had spent a decade warning that Trump was “deranged,” “incompetent” and “immoral,” ending with the line, “And here we are now.”
Referring to Trump's Truth Social post saying Iranian "civilization will die," Cupp said he "is drunk on power right now, absolutely drunk on power,” but “he knows Republicans in Congress aren’t going to say boo to him—they are rubber-stamping everything he has done.”
She noted that Trump “does not know how to get us out of this war, and that is obvious" but he thinks that “threatening Iran into oblivion, threatening with genocide and war crimes, is going to nudge them into submission?”
Cupp then criticized former Trump allies who have recently spoken out against him over Iran, including former Georgia Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene and conservative commentators Tucker Carlson, Alex Jones and Joe Rogan, some of whom have suggested invoking the 25th Amendment.
While displaying articles about their criticism, she remarked:
“Look at this bulls**t. Look at these idiots and a**holes! All the chickens are coming home to roost now—now, ten years in! Ten years in, when everything we said is happening!”
“It was happening 10 years ago, OK? But we’re in the tenth year of this, proving that [Trump] is an absolute deranged, immoral, incompetent grifter who doesn’t know what he’s doing and doesn’t care about America.”
“You’re just finally getting it? F**k you and your buyer’s remorse! Who would listen to you now? Who would listen to you—you got us here!"
"You voted for him, you told everyone they have to vote for him, right? ‘It’s going to be World War III if you don’t vote for him!’ Give me a f**king break. No one cares what you have to say anymore. We told ya so.”
You can see her post below.
Her message resonated with many.

A Hillary Clinton Tweet From 2016 Is Going Viral Again After Trump's Threats To Iran—And She Was Spot On
Before the ceasefire was announced on Tuesday, his full threat, published on Truth Social, amplified fears about him having access to the nuclear codes:
"A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again. I don’t want that to happen, but it probably will. However, now that we have Complete and Total Regime Change, where different, smarter, and less radicalized minds prevail, maybe something revolutionarily wonderful can happen, WHO KNOWS?"
"We will find out tonight, one of the most important moments in the long and complex history of the World. 47 years of extortion, corruption, and death, will finally end. God Bless the Great People of Iran!"

@realDonaldTrump/Truth Social
Amid all this, a tweet Clinton wrote in July 2016—specifically the day after Trump invited the Kremlin to find “the 30,000 emails that are missing” from the personal server she used during her tenure as Secretary of State—is attracting attention again.
At the time, she wrote:
"A man you can bait with a tweet is not a man we can trust with nuclear weapons."
You can see the post below.
And considering everything that's just happened, the message is hitting harder than ever.
Trump once bizarrely bragged he understands nuclear weapons "maybe better than anybody" simply because his uncle, physicist and inventor John Trump, was a professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).
During a 2024 Fox News town hall, Trump said he "understood nuclear for a long time, the power of nuclear weapons. You need a president who's not going to be taking you into war. We won't have World War III when I'm elected."
Confidence in Trump's ability to lead the country in the event of a nuclear scare was low enough throughout his first presidency that an ABC News/Washington Post poll found that two-thirds of Americans do not believe he should be trusted with the nuclear codes and more than half "are concerned he might launch a nuclear attack without justification."
And yet here we are.
MAGA Is Pretty Sure Tucker Carlson Just Called Trump The Antichrist—And They're Melting Down Hard
On X, Carlson captioned his latest video:
"Desecrating Easter was the first step toward nuclear war. Christians need to understand where Trump is taking us."
In his attached Monday episode of The Tucker Carlson Show, he said:
"The morning of Easter is a uniquely joyful and peaceful moment. And yet that peace yesterday was shattered."
Carlson then read Trump's Truth Social post threatening to destroy a civilization. Whether Trump was referring to Iran or the United States was unclear.
Either way, Carlson wasn’t a fan of the rhetoric, saying:
"How dare you speak that way on Easter morning to the country? Who do you think you are? You’re tweeting out that word on Easter morning."
"A lot of people reading that imagined, of course, this can’t be real. Did the president of the United States really just write that?"
"It is real. It is maybe the most real thing this President has ever done and also the most revealing on every level. It is vile on every level."
After voicing concerns that the threats and tactics were because Trump wanted to have the power of God, to destroy and kill with impunity, Carlson stated:
"That is an intentional desecration of beauty and truth, which is the definition of evil."
Voicing concern over Trump choosing a nuclear strike against Iran, Carlson implored:
"Those people who are in direct contact with the President need to say, ‘No, I’ll resign. I’ll do whatever I can legally to stop this, because this is insane. If you give the order, I’m not carrying it out. Figure out the codes on the [nuclear] football yourself."
He condemned Trump's threats to destroy civilian infrastructure using the U.S. military, making anyone who complied with those orders war criminals prosecutable in international court.
Carlson added:
"Which is to say commit a war crime, a moral crime against the people of the country whose welfare, by the way, was one of the reasons we supposedly went into this war in the first place."
"What happens when [a country] loses [electrical] power? Well, people die. Babies connected to incubators die. People in hospitals die. And those are the first-level effects."
"Then people begin to starve. And then you have refugee crises. People leave the cities looking for food. And then yes, they move into other countries in the region, in Europe, in the United States."
Going after Trump’s Christian nationalist acolytes, Carlson stated:
"You cause chaos and death, mass suffering and death when you do that. And we have done that. We have intentionally bombed civilian infrastructure in Iran. It’s totally unacceptable."
"Not under the phony laws of some international body, but under moral law, God’s law, killing non-combatants, people who did nothing wrong, who didn’t choose this war, who were just people created by God, that is immoral. That will never be moral. That can never be justified. That is always wrong."
"Could there be a spiritual component to this? Is it just a conventional escalation ladder in a badly thought out war… [or] could it be something bigger? Is it possible what you’re watching is a very stealthy yet incredibly effective attack on what, from a Christian perspective, is the true faith: belief in Jesus?"
"Is it possible that the President sees this in bigger terms? Sees this as the fulfillment of something? An elevation of some higher office beyond President of the United States?"
Carlson noted Trump's spiritual advisor, Paula White, compared the POTUS to Jesus Christ on one occasion as Franklin Graham nodded along. Some Christian nationalists, like Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, have expressed their messianic fantasies about Trump, and Carlson urged Christians to remember the stories of a false prophet in the guise of a powerful political figure.
While Carlson never actually called Trump the Antichrist, MAGA wigged out online.

But some former MAGA minions thought Carlson was on target.
Carlson was at one time a Trump ride-or-die, but the bromance is clearly over between the two as they traded barbs online and through third parties.
In response to Carlson's latest video, Trump told the New York Post's Caitlin Doornbos:
"Tucker’s a low IQ person that has absolutely no idea what’s going on. He calls me all the time; I don’t respond to his calls. I don’t deal with him. I like dealing with smart people, not fools."

And MAGA continues to crumble.
