Paris Jacksonresponded to “pathetic” reports that she is in a downward spiral with a heated Twitter thread that slammed assumptions about her personal life based off of her social media habits.
The model, 20, first explained that recent photographs of her and her boyfriend on the streets of New Orleans that appear to show them fighting were not all that they appear to be.
“Me and my bf re-enacted ‘the californians’ from SNL while we were in nola purely for the entertainment of our friends, and paps happened to be taking pictures of it all and…. y’all it looks like a full on break-up scene in a sad drama movie omg,” she wrote Thursday.
Jackson then said she recently read reports claiming she was in a “downward spiral” — and vehementlydenied it.
“Damn i’m just now catching wind of these downward spiral articles.. this is like, what ? the 7th time y’all have accused me of this ? the 3rd in the past month? n yet not one OD from all the ‘drugs’ y’all accuse me of doing or any hospitalizations… 7… but who’s counting right…,” she wrote.
Continued Jackson, “Like.. no please.. give it up.. there are so many more interesting things to write about. and actions speak louder than words. so if my actions prove your words wrong, why keep trying to pull this s—? it’s a lil pathetic. i’ll pray for y’all.”

Eventually, Jackson’s tweets grew sarcastic as she rattled off a list of assumptions potentially printed about her in the press.
“I smoke weed on my story ONE time and all of a sudden i’m a junkie meth alcoholic party raver that’s also secretly married and pregnant and may or may not have a penis,” shewrote. “I have a job. and dogs. and a bedtime. go f— yourself.”
Jackson added that she is “down for freedom of speech” and “totally game for respect of all opinions,” but does not support “lying, especially on a mass scale.”
“Where. is. your. honor????????” shewrote. “Do you even know the meaning of the word.”
Meanwhile, the star also weighed in, again, onLeaving Neverland, the HBO documentary chronicling Wade Robson and James Safechuck’s claims that her father Michael Jackson sexually molested them when they were children. (The Jackson estate has repeatedly denied the allegations.)

Paris’s message came in response to a fan who speculated that tabloids were targeting her as a way of punishing her for not speaking publicly about the documentary.
“There’s nothing i can say that hasn’t already been said in regards to defense. [Michael’s nephew] taj [Jackson] is doing a perfect job on his own. and i support him. but that’s not my role,” she wrote. “I’m just tryna get everyone to chill out and go with the flow, be mellow and think about the bigger picture. that’s me.”
The tweet comes weeks after sheappeared to refer toLeaving Neverlandas “tabloids and lies.”
Michael’s estate has repeatedly denied the allegations in the film, and a source previously toldPEOPLEthat Jackson has not watched the documentary.
She alluded toLeaving Neverlandin a series of tweets that came in response to reports that she was worried about how the film and allegations against her father would affect her career.
“I actually haven’t made any statements yet, especially regarding how it affects my work life. you guys are reaching a bit. at least this wasn’t a disgusting and attacking article though,” Paris said in a now-deleted tweet.

She then added a tweet that read, “ya’ll take my life more seriously than I do.”
Jackson continued, “I know injustices are frustrating and it’s easy to get worked up. but reacting with a calm mind usually is more logical than acting out of rage and also…. it feels better to mellow out.”
When a fan responded to that tweet writing, “The bigger picture is your father’s legacy ruined and his name smeared forever but whatever though,” Jackson responded, saying “so….. not love and peace and trying to carry that message out? tabloids and lies are the bigger picture? i’ll pray for you.”
Jackson previously condemned the allegations against her father in a 2017Rolling Stoneinterview, in which she said her dad would “cry to me at night.”
“Picture your parent crying to you about the world hating him for something he didn’t do,” she told the magazine. “And for me, he was the only thing that mattered. To see my entire world in pain, I started to hate the world because of what they were doing to him. I’m like, ‘How can people be so mean?’”
The Jackson estate slammedLeaving Neverlandin January as “yet another lurid production in an outrageous and pathetic attempt to exploit and cash in on Michael Jackson.”
