All of nineteen, the daughter of the legendary pop star, Michael Jackson, is as fierce as her dad. Paris Jackson has 1.5 million followers on Instagram and earlier this weekend, she had a message for them. 

The beauty took to her social media handle and posted a black and white topless picture of herself, with a caption that addressed positive body image and also slammed all those who critiqued her for her expression. 

"I'll say it again for those questioning what i stand for and how i express myself. Nudity started as a movement for 'going back to nature', 'expressing freedom', 'being healthier' and was even called a philosophy," Paris began. "Being naked is part of what makes us human. for me it helps me feel more connected to mama Gaia."

"I'm usually naked when i garden. It's actually a beautiful thing and you don't have to make it sexual the way many Hollywood stars (and the media) do.

"Not only is your body a temple and should be worshiped as so, but also part of feminism is being able to express yourself in your own way, whether it's being conservative and wearing lots of clothes or showing yourself," she continued. "The human body is a beautiful thing and no matter what "flaws" you have, whether it be scars, or extra weight, stretch marks, freckles, whatever, it is beautiful and you should express yourself however you feel comfortable." 

"If this makes some of you upset i completely understand and i encourage you to maybe no longer follow me, but i cannot apologize for this in any way. it is who i am and i refuse to shy away and keep my beliefs a secret. every one as an opinion and every one has their beliefs. we don't always agree with one another and that's okay. but again, we are all human, and to appreciate the things that other people do that make us human helps us feel connected. how can that be a bad thing?" she concluded. 

Proving that she is much more than just a pretty face, Paris put her point across, bold and nice, and was unapologetically herself in the picture. 

On the work front, she has recently signed her first major fashion campaign (On May 17th), signing a seven-figure deal with Calvin Klein, days after attending New York's Met Gala as a guest of Klein and the fashion house's chief designer Raf Simons.
