Paris Jackson opens up on sexuality - 'I've dated more women'

Paris Jackson has opened up about her sexuality and revealed that she “never” thought she’d end up with a man.

Speaking alongside her boyfriend on the first installment of her new Facebook Watch series, Unfiltered: Paris Jackson and Gabriel Glenn, the 22-year-old daughter of Michael Jackson explained that she has dated more women than men in the past.

“Never thought I’d end up with a dude,” Jackson said on the show.

“Thought I’d end up marrying a chick or… I’ve dated more women than men,” she continued before repeating that she has “been with more chicks”.

Jackson went on to say that she has kept many of her relationships out of the public eye.

“The public only knows about three long term relationships I’ve been with and they’ve been with men,” she said.

“The public doesn’t know about like most of the relationships I’ve been in.”

Jackson continued by expanding on her sexuality and how she defines it.

“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, I’ve dated a man that had a vagina,” she said.

“It has nothing to do with what’s in your pants, it’s literally like, what are you like as a person?”

The model added that her father ”felt the energy” with regards to her sexuality.

“I think he felt the energy and he would tease me the same way he’d tease my brothers, like, ‘You got yourself a girlfriend!’ if I were staring at a magazine of a woman too hard.”

Jackon said she was “very lucky" to have an accepting family.

“The first time I came out to a family member, they didn’t believe me,” she recalled of telling her brother Prince.

“[Prince] said he just wants to learn more about it, have a better understanding of it. I’m lucky to have that as well.”
