Paris Jackson, the daughter
of late pop legend Michael Jackson, is in hospital after attempting to kill
herself, a publicist has confirmed.
Further
details were unavailable about the 15 year old's condition.
Angel
Howansky, long-time publicist for Joe Jackson - Michael Jackson's father and
the girl's grandfather - confirmed Paris' suicide attempt to the BBC.
Entertainment
media in Los Angeles say she was taken from the family home about 02:00 local
time (09:00 GMT).
Ms
Howansky could not confirm reports of a possible drug overdose or multiple cuts
on her wrist, says the BBC's Alastair Leithead in Los Angeles.
Paris,
Michael Jackson's only daughter, is currently part of a multi-million dollar
lawsuit against the concert promoters AEG Live, who the Jackson family say
bears responsibility for her father's death from an accidental drug overdose in
June 2009.
Paris is
prolific on Twitter and her most recent tweet was a quote from a famous Beatles
song: "Yesterday all my troubles seemed so far away but now it looks as
though they're here to stay."
