Paris Hilton Says Michael Jackson Named Daughter After Her


Reuters reports that Paris Hilton told Extra that Michael Jackson's 11-year-old daughter Paris is named after her. The Hilton family was close friends with Michael Jackson so it is possible. Paris says that Michael Jackson always loved the name Paris.

A month after the "Thriller" singer's sudden demise, socialite Paris Hilton has laid claim to being the inspiration behind the naming of Jackson's 11-year-old daughter.

Paris Hilton told celebrity TV show "Extra" that her family were close friends with Jackson. Her mother, Kathy, went to school with him for awhile in California "and they were best friends since they were 13."

"So I grew up knowing Michael very well and when he had his daughter, he always loved the name Paris and grew up being an uncle to me. So he asked my mom if it was okay, and of course she said 'yes' and I think she's such a beautiful little girl and I'm proud we have the same name," Hilton told Extra.
