NEW YORK - This Michael Jackson’s daughter has bravely opened up about her experience with online bullies in an emotional video.
Paris Jackson reveals that she tried to kill herself four years ago due to the abuse she suffered on the internet following her dad's death in 2009.
“I don’t know how they they can have so much hatred. Right now, I’ve tried sticking up for myself. I’ve tried the whole blocking the haters thing. Not reading the comments. I’ve tried a lot of things,” she says through tears.
“But it’s hard, when there’s so much. I don’t get why I’m such an easy target. I try to be nice to everyone I meet.”
The 18 year old star also admitted that this type of bullying moved her to attempt suicide at the age of 14. In 2013, various media outlets reported that Jackson was rushed to the hospital afterward.
“When I was 14, I got so much hatred that I tried to kill myself," she continued. "I took a two-year break from social media and people asked me to come back and make my Instagram public again, so I did… But nothing changed. I’m just tired of it and I know I’m not the only one."

Though she later deleted that post, Paris also shared her thoughts on Twitter, referencing Justin Bieber's own recent battle with negative comments.
"I don't blame Justin for deleting his Instagram account," she tweeted. "The type of harassment I see on my account daily is enough to make someone suicidal."
Paris then took to her Instagram account to post a snap of herself in the bath, captioning it: "Looks like i'm the villain now," she captioned on a pic posted to Instagram. "Didn't know defending myself was a crime. My dearest apologies.”
