Paris graces the cover of the February issue of Rolling Stone Magazine. “Paris Jackson: Life After Neverland. In her first-ever in-depth interview, Michael Jackson’s daughter discusses her father’s pain and finding peace after addiction and heartache” : Now sober and happier than ever, with menthol cigarettes as her only remaining vice, Paris left her grandmother Katherine’s home shortly after her 18th birthday and moved into the former Jackson family estate. She spends nearly every moment with her boyfriend, Michael Snoddy, a 26-year-old drummer from the band Street Drum Corps. Originally from Virginia, his dyed mohawk, tattoos, and sagging pants don’t diminish his boy-band charm or his kindness (…).
Currently, Paris lives in the private studio where her father recorded the demo for Beat It. The main Tudor-style house on the Jackson family estate remains empty. Located in Encino, Los Angeles, it was purchased by Joe Jackson in 1971 with the Jackson 5’s first royalties from Motown. Rebuilt by Michael in the 1980s, it is currently undergoing renovation. However, the studio, constructed by Michael in a brick building in the courtyard, is roughly the size of a decent Manhattan apartment, complete with its own kitchen and bathroom. Paris has turned it into a cozy, inviting space. Traces of her father are everywhere, most notably in commissioned artworks. Outside the studio, there is an image in a Disney-style frame of a cartoon castle on a hill, with a caricature of Michael in the foreground and a small blond boy hugging him. It is titled Of Children, Castles & Kings. Inside the studio, a mural covers an entire wall, featuring sketches of Michael in the corner, holding a green book titled The Secret of Life and gazing out of a window at blooming flowers—each flower’s center is adorned with the face of a rosy-cheeked little girl. Paris’s personal decor is quite different. There’s a photo of Kurt Cobain in the bathroom, a Smashing Pumpkins poster on the wall, a laptop adorned with stickers of Against Me! and Never Ending Story, psychedelic wall decals, numerous fake candles, and vinyl records (Alice Cooper, The Rolling Stones) used as wall art. In the kitchen, sitting on a counter, is a framed platinum record signed by Quincy Jones for Michael Jackson (“I found it in the attic,” Paris says with a shrug).
Above an adjacent garage is a mini-museum Michael created as a surprise gift for his family, with walls and even ceilings covered in photos of their history. Michael used to rehearse his dance moves in this room. Now, Paris’s boyfriend has set up his drum kit there.”

February 09 : Katherine Jackson claims she was the victim of years of mental abuse at the hands of her nephew and driver, Trent Lamar Jackson, to the point where she is afraid to return to her home.
According to court documents obtained by PEOPLE, Jackson, 86, claims her nephew (through marriage) has accessed her bank accounts without her permission, used credit cards of hers for his own personal purchases without authorization, and subjected her to years of mental abuse that has left Jackson “in a constant state of fear and confusion.”
Jackson describes her nephew as “an abusive con-man” who has manipulated her in order to “assume control of her finances.”
The Jackson family matriarch says she tried to fire her nephew and order him to move out of her guest house, but he has refused. Katherine is currently in London visiting her daughter, Janet Jackson, but is “afraid to go home with Trent there” and “fears he could physically harm her for terminating him.”
A judge granted Jackson’s request for a restraining order and ordered her nephew to move out of her home and return all keys, passwords and combinations to the property.
A hearing has been scheduled for March 1st.

While Katherine Jackson has a 10-percent ownership and the role of officer in the Michael Jackson Company following her son’s 2009 death, in a motion filed to the California Superior Court in early-February, she asserts that important estate matters have been made without her input.
The defendants, John Branca and John McClain, are the executors of Jackson’s estate. Lawyers for Branca did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Katherine Jackson‘s nephew Trent Jackson has filed new court documents that dispute her recent allegations that he “manipulates” and “bullies” the Jackson family matriarch, and her claims of elder abuse.
Trent claims in a court filing submitted on Monday, and obtained by PEOPLE, that he has “a serious concern” that the 86-year-old’s request is not “authentic or trustworthy,” and that even if she signed it herself, he does not believe it was drafted “under her own free will.” He further alleges that Katherine “may be the subject of undue influence perpetrated by some of her own children, who are keeping her secluded in London while they seek to separate her from people she is close with, like [Trent], who might resist their efforts to take control over her interest in Michael Jackson’s estate.” He later names Jermaine Jackson as one of the people involved in trying to keep him away from her.
