From a young age, Paris showed a keen interest in the arts. Whether it was music, acting, or modeling, her talent shone through. Her magnetic presence and distinctive appearance quickly caught the attention of the fashion world, leading to a successful career as a model.
But Paris didn’t stop there. She embarked on a musical journey, forming a folk-rock band called The Soundflowers and showcasing her vocal abilities as a singer-songwriter. She also explored the world of acting, making her television debut in "Star" and taking part in other film and TV productions.
However, Paris is not just a talented artist. She is also a staunch champion for mental health awareness and LGBTQ+ rights. She has been open about her own struggles with mental health and has used her platform to destigmatize these issues, encouraging others to seek help and support.

Throughout her journey, Paris has always stayed grounded and true to herself. She has carved out her own identity, separate from her father’s legacy, and has become an influential and respected figure in her own right.
Discovering the Beautiful Bond of the Jackson Siblings
In a rare and heartfelt moment, Paris Jackson, the 22-year-old daughter of the iconic musician Michael Jackson, revealed the beautiful bond she shares with her three siblings. During an episode of her Facebook Watch series, Unfiltered, released on July 21, Paris and her brothers delved into the relationship they have with their "oldest brother," Omer Bhatti, a 36-year-old Norwegian dancer and rapper.
Meet Omer Bhatti, the Unsung Jackson Sibling
To the surprise of many who believed that Prince Jackson, 23, and Blanket Jackson, 18, were Paris’ only brothers, Omer’s special place in the family was revealed on the show. Confirming himself as an older brother to the Jackson children, Omer shared, "My mother was employed as Prince’s nanny when he was born, and I’ve been there for Paris since she was a baby. I’d say we kind of raised her. She is my younger sister in every way."
Omer fondly expressed the joy he feels being a part of the Jackson family. He said, "I’ve always wanted younger siblings, and I got them with Prince, Paris, and Blanket. It brought me a lot of joy."
An Unbreakable Bond
Paris, who shares an incredible closeness with her older brothers, expressed her deep love for them. She said, "They have my whole love. Every time we see each other, we feel revitalized by our time together."
Unlike her relationship with Prince, which often involves typical sibling conflicts, Paris and Omer have never had any conflicts. Their bond remains unbreakable and full of love.
Unique Perspectives
As the Jackson siblings grew up, Omer had the incredible opportunity to witness their individual growth and gain unique insights into their personalities. He shared, "Paris was undoubtedly a rebel, always more rebellious than Prince. When they were kids, Prince and Paris were like two sides of a coin."
Omer noticed that Prince was more aligned with their father’s teachings, and he took on the role of guiding Paris. "He saw that I was similar to him, always the big brother trying to teach her right from wrong."
Miracle Encounters and a Father Figure
Omer, popularly known as O-Bee, first encountered Michael Jackson when he began performing at the young age of nine. Reflecting on their connection, Omer shared, "Being on TV and making appearances eventually led me to Michael Jackson. In a way, he adopted me and became a father figure and mentor to me."
Like a sponge, Omer absorbed everything as a young child and saw Michael as his role model. "He later said that I was like a mini version of him. Eventually, I joined him on tour. I would be sitting right there on the stage."
These extraordinary relationships, fueled by love and shared experiences, continue to thrive within the Jackson family. Paris, Prince, and Blanket have found solace in having an "older brother" like Omer, someone who has been there for them through thick and thin. The bond between the Jackson siblings exemplifies the power and beauty of chosen family.
