Michael Jackson wasn’t only a musical genius and among the savviest of music businessmen; he was also an oracle.
In her new Facebook Watch series, “Unfiltered: Paris Jackson & Gabriel Glenn,” the late King of Pop’s daughter Paris Jackson opened up about her sexuality and revealed that her father seemed to have her figured out as a child.

“My dad caught on pretty quick,” the 22-year-old celebrity personality said, adding that the “Wanna Be Startin’ Somethin'” singer would lightheartedly joke about her admiration for members of the same sex.
“I think he just felt the energy and he would like kind of tease me the same way that he would tease my brothers, like ‘Oh, you got yourself a girlfriend,'” she revealed.
Paris was only 11 years old when her pop music-making pappy died on June 25, 2009.
But according to her, having that type of support at such a young age is something to be thankful for.
“I’m very lucky to have that, especially so young — I think I was like 8 or 9,” she admitted. “Not many children have that experience.”
She’s currently is in a romantic relationship with boyfriend Gabriel Glenn these days and is more confident in her sexuality.
She has previously described Glenn, 31, as her “muse.”
The couple make up The Soundflowers, a Southern California indie band that creates original music.
While Paris describes herself as “gay,” she shared that it really isn’t a true representation of her romantic life.
“I say I’m gay, because I guess I am, but I wouldn’t consider myself bisexual because I’ve dated more than just men and women,” she explained. “I’ve dated a man that had a vagina.”
“So it has nothing to do with what’s in your pants,” she continued. “It has nothing to do with your XY chromosome makeup…it’s literally just like, what are you like as a person.”
Jackson said she battles depression, anxiety and post-traumatic stress disorder and uses her dog as an emotional support animal.
“Unfiltered: Paris Jackson & Gabriel Glenn” is available every Tuesday on Facebook Watch.
