Michael Jackson’s Daughter Paris Jackson Reveals Dad Chose Elizabeth Taylor To Be Her Godmother Because Of THIS Reason

by

As a lifestyle expert with a keen eye for celebrity dynamics, I find it incredibly intriguing to see how the lives of these iconic figures intertwine and shape the next generation. The story of Paris Jackson and her godparents, Elizabeth Taylor and Macaulay Culkin, is a perfect example of this fascinating connection.

Paris Jackson, Michael Jackson’s daughter, has explained why her father chose Elizabeth Taylor as his godmother. He wanted someone who could be a nurturing influence for Paris since she was raised under the scrutiny of public attention from an early age. While the pop icon’s daughter spent much of her childhood hidden from the cameras behind masks, the actress who played Cleopatra started her acting career at the tender age of seven.

In the BBC documentary series Elizabeth Taylor: Rebel Superstar, Paris pondered over Taylor’s role as her godmother. She remarked, “It’s clear there was a shared understanding between us that our lives might run a parallel course.

She reminisced about being homeschooled and lacking social sensitivity. In the documentary, Paris stated that being homeschooled meant she didn’t interact much with kids her age, implying that Taylor would empathize with her situation. The Hollow singer further commented, “I think it was the same for her,” referring to Elizabeth Taylor’s similar experiences as a child star in National Velvet.

In 1939, when she was only seven years old, Dame Elizabeth stepped onto the acting stage for the first time. The iconic figure of Hollywood passed away in 2011, after the sudden demise of Michael Jackson in 2009.

Michael and Elizabeth held a strong, intimate connection during their friendship. In fact, she had great admiration for the artist known as “Beat It” singer, so much that she made a point to be present at his memorial service in 2009, offering comfort to Paris Jackson and her brothers, Prince Jackson and Blanket Jackson.

Taylor’s documentary series highlights not just her acting prowess that enchanted viewers for many years, but also her accomplishments as an entrepreneur, activist, and supporter. It showcases Paris Hilton, Kim Kardashian, Sharon Stone, Anthony Fauci, and other notable figures, alongside historical clips of the star herself.

Alongside Elizabeth Taylor, Macaulay Culkin, best known for his role in Home Alone, was also named godfather to Paris Jackson. The duo shares a close bond, with Culkin often expressing warmth towards her. However, he has generally been discreet about the specifics of their relationship.

Back in 2018, I proudly proclaimed my protective nature towards my goddaughter, Paris, during an appearance on WTF With Marc Maron. Fast forward to August 2021, and as she prepared for American Horror Stories, I offered words of wisdom, encouraging her to bring a more dramatic, theatrical flair to her acting.
