Paris Jackson left Dior show because she does not support animals being branded and whipped


20 year old model and actress, Paris-Michael Katherine Jackson, the second child and only daughter of  the late Michael Jackson and Debbie Rowe, has defended herself after reports emerged on entertainment news sites and social media saying that she had  ‘stormed’ out of  the Christian Dior Couture SS/19 fashion show in France in a ‘rage’ on Friday.

As part of the show, the Cruise Collection presentation was depicted in a Chantilly chateau setting and included several crop-cracking, side-saddled ladies recreating a Mexican rodeo with white horses.

'To be clear, I did not "storm out" of the show,' Paris tweeted. ‘I quietly got up and walked out trying my hardest to not cause a scene, because I do not support animals being branded and whipped. Not trying to become enemies in the fashion world in any way, but I will always be myself.'

Paris, who boasts an impressive 4.6M social media followers, added, 'Furthermore, I was not "enraged," just taken by surprise and a little heartbroken.'

The Beverly Hills-born heiress concluded that she looks forward to the day where all high-end fashion houses will 'switch to no-fur and anti-animal cruelty.'

People magazine have asked Dior for comment, they have yet to respond.
