Paris Jackson sparks concern as she appears to cry during solo stroll after anniversary of dad Michael's death
Michael Jackson's daughter Paris Jackson worried fans on Wednesday as she was spotted out and about in Malibu.
The 27-year-old model and musician was visibly emotional and appeared to burst into tears during her solo stroll.
The outing comes at a difficult time for Paris, weeks after the 16th anniversary of her father's death on June 25 and following criticism over her scheduled performance that day.

Michael died on June 25, 2009 at age 50 from acute Propofol intoxication, which caused the singer to go into cardiac arrest.
Last month, Paris fired back at her fans via Instagram Stories, after they criticized her for having a performance on the day of his death anniversary.
Paris said: 'So people are mad again. I guess one of the dates I'm supposed to be going out on tour (with Incubus and Manchester Orchestra) happens to be June 25, which is a very negative anniversary for me in my life and my family.'
'So, what I guess I have to explain to these people is that when you're not headlining these shows, you don't pick what date you perform.
'It's just me and my acoustic guitar and my sound guy, who happens to be my fiancé,' she said in reference to her husband-to-be, Justin. 'So we're gonna be in a soccer mom van.'
Paris noted that she volunteered to be part of the tour and wouldn't step down over the date: 'So, I'm gonna tell 'em, "Sorry, guys, we can't perform on this date?" F*** you.'
In March it was announced by Incubus that Paris and Manchester Orchestra would be hitting the road with them for their Morning View + The Hits tour throughout the U.S. and UK. On June 25, the tour was in Nashville, Tennessee.
