Michael Jackson's son, Prince Jackson, says he has no plans to follow in his father's footsteps, saying he can't sing or dance and has no desire to make a career on stage but would rathe be involved in the production side of things.
Speaking to The Los Angeles Times, Prince explained: "Everyone thinks I'm going to do music and dance. Music is a big part of my life. It shaped who I am because of my family, but I've always wanted to go into production. My dad would ask me what I wanted to do and my answer was always producing and directing."
When asked on what advice his father gave him prior to his death that has stuck with him, he said: "Trust no one. It sounds bad, but a lot of people are motivated by themselves. He said don't trust someone just because it sounds like a good idea--do your research. There are a lot of people who want to interact with me and my siblings just because of who we are." Prince will never get over his dad's untimely passing but he believes he, his brother Blanket, 14, and sister Paris, 18, are learning how to cope with the missing figure in their lives. He explained: "The way I cope with the grief is incorporating him into my life in every way, from my company logo having little bits of him, to using his metaphors and trying to follow everything he taught us. My brother and my sister, we've all coped differently. I've gotten better the older I get."
