Paris Jackson, the daughter of Michael Jackson, is now 18 years old and has given her first-ever in-depth interview. She tells Rolling Stone about her warm memories of her father (nine of her 50 tattoos are devoted to him, and one of them is a tribute to Prince).

Jackson opens up about her past drug addiction and suicide attempts, and about how she finds her current modeling work therapeutic. She says that in her view "it's obvious" that her father was murdered. She also says she's certain Jackson was her biological father, and she considers herself to be black.

"If you wanna be bigger than me, you can," Jackson remembers her father telling her. "If you don't want to be at all, you can. But I just want you to be happy."

NYT fuels Prince streaming speculation

Depsite ongoing legal wrangling between Prince&38217;s estate and Tidal, the New York Times reports:

The Grammys ceremony, on Feb. 12, is the focus of a major marketing campaign set up by the music companies that have rights to release Prince's songs, and by the streaming services that have been hungry to carry the music but were blocked from doing so by Prince himself before he died last year at 57. If all goes according to plan, Prince's music will be made available on virtually all streaming services around the time of the Grammys, where an all-star musical tribute to Prince is expected to be one of the show's splashiest moments.

The streaming rollout was previously rumored, but Tidal's claims to an exclusive deal with Prince cast it in doubt. The Tidal litigation, the Times now reports, "does not seem to have slowed down deal activity."
