In other news, sadly Michael Jackson’s baby girl Paris Jackson, was hospitalized early Wednesday morning (June 5) after attempting suicide.  Her mother, Debbie Rowe, confirmed the 15-year-old did make an attempt on her own life and is currently recovering at an undisclosed hospital in L.A.

TMZ reports, a 911 call came at about 1 in the morning from the family home.   Reports are still a bit sketchy, but some are saying that Paris may have cut her wrists, while other are reporting that the call was for a “possible pill overdose.” She left a suicide note, but it’s unclear what she wrote at this time.

Before her suicide attempt, Paris went on Twitter and tweeted a line from the Beatles song ‘Yesterday,’ “Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away now it looks as though they’re here to stay.”  An hour before that, she tweeted, “i wonder why tears are salty?”

This incident comes at a bad time for the Jackson family, as they are currently dealing with Michaels wrongful-death case against tour promoters AEG, new molestation charges and the 4th anniversary of Michael death is coming up on the 25th.

The important thing is, she didn’t succeed.  We wish a speedy recovery in the meantime.  Listen to Tha Wire below to hear what Catherine Jackson's attorneys had to say about this.  Plus, find out what Paris told Oprah recently.
