I have read that she is on the cover of newspapers today, has anyone seen any of them?
 
Well she was on TV giving a speech with 2 billion people watching. No need to hide her face anymore now.
 
I think everyone on this planet should know what she said....It shows how much they loved him and what an amazing, loving, caring, understanding father he was.
 
All the English papers have her on the front page. The Telegraph, Mail, Star, Express, The Sun... and they all say how her speech said in 2 minutes what the whole memorial said in 2 hours. They are saying that even if they only had Paris' 'speech', a memorial wouldn't have been necessary because what she said was powerful enough.
 
I am SO glad her message has touched everyone around the world.
 
When I saw her on stage making that statement, my heart just broke. I am so glad they have a Grandmother, a Grandfather, and a whole bunch of Uncles, Aunts and cousins who will be there for them and love them.

My belief is that all 3 children will grow up and continue on with what their father wanted to do....try to make the world a better place.

** hugs to P rince I, Paris, and Prince II**

Absolutely but do you not think now that, as all three are now known, they will be harrassed by the media everywhere they go? they will probably be shrouded in body guards whereever they go. I wonder if before this, they were recognised as Jackson's children at school? Time will tell I guess.
 
Yeah her and and her brothers were on front of a majority of newspapers today down my ends.

It would be an understatement to say you weren't expecting it though!

Here in England:

The Sun has her with Prince and Blanket with the heading, Jackson DAUGHTER'S TRIBUTE."

And the words for all to see:

"Ever since I was born Daddy has been the best father you ever imagine and I just wanted to say I love him so much."

On the cover of the Daily Express they had Paris the picture of his casket and Prince Michael. with the title, Jackson Children's Sad Farewell."

On the cover of The Independent its got the same picture with, "Farewell to a Father."

On the cover of the Daily Mirror its got, "SPECIAL EDITION FAREWELL TO Jackson." and KING OF POPS with the same blown up picture and the words:

"He was the best father you could ever imagine."

New York Times, USA Today, and my local daily newspaper all have pics on the front page of the family/children on stage. USA Today has the most close-up picture of Paris right after she spoke, it is a beautifully poignant pic. I purchased all 3 newspapers but have not read the articles yet but will later today when I "toughen" up a bit after the emotional tidal wave from yesterday.

To the poster who said that this little girl's words would not make a difference. Well, you were wrong...it is making a huge difference. This little girls words are being hailed as the most important part of the entire memorial. Why? Because kids are honest. And she spoke from her heart about her daddy.
 
the sun, the star, the express, independent and telegraph have the kids on the front.
 
I'm so proud of Michael's children..Especially Paris, what a tough kid! I'm so glad her words are actually making people realize, this man WAS a wonderful father he WAS a REAL PERSON and not just a icon. Little blanket, the entire time was covering his face just doing what he was always taught to do.

King of Pop's little princess, Paris Jackson, brave in spotlight at father Michael's memorial

LOS ANGELES - The accolade that would have meant more than anything to Michael Jackson, the moment everyone will best remember, came at the end when his 11-year-old daughter, Paris, spoke the first public words of her life before the whole world.

"I just wanted to say ..." she began.

"Speak up, sweetheart, speak up," her aunt Janet Jackson softly said.

Paris continued, her left hand trembling on the microphone, her right clutching the stand.

" ... ever since I was born ..."

Her left hand went to the back of her neck and her face constricted in pain, but she continued.

" ... Daddy has been the best father you could ever imagine."

She paused and her head bowed.

She breathed in twice, fighting back sobs.

She kept on with this spectacularly brave act of total devotion for the father who lay in the rose-covered coffin before the stage where she stood. She was steadied in his love for her and propelled by all she felt for him.

"And I just wanted to say I love him so much," she said.

She turned into her aunt's embrace. Her older brother, 12-year-old Prince Michael, stepped over, joining in, his face full of that same love, for his father, for his sister, for their family.

The youngest, 7-year-old Prince Michael II, also known as Blanket, also was on stage and he showed some courage of his own as he lowered the memorial program he had been peering over.

He gazed out at the crowd and the cameras as if he felt almost safe in this moment where the world saw his daddy as he and his siblings had always seen him.

After a week of spectacle, this courageous little girl had presented us with a moment of immaculate truth. Other tears streaked the faces of fans who had trooped into the Staples Center as if it were as much a pop concert as a memorial.

They had cheered earlier in the service when Michael Jackson was called the greatest entertainer of all time, but they went absolutely still when they heard his daughter call him "Daddy."

Paris had made unmistakably clear that however eccentric the world may have viewed him, Michael Jackson was at his very core a daddy who loved his kids and whose kids loved him.

The King of Pop turned out to be the opposite of so many would-be kings of political life who present a veneer of absolute normalcy and turn out to have sordid private lives.

Jackson had proven to be the real family man at heart. And you have to wonder if that is part of his power as an artist all along.

From his earliest years, Jackson composed and sang and danced with all his being, tapping the part of himself that was the source of all true feeling and touching that same part in others.

A little over a week ago, he had been rehearsing in the same arena to work his magic again with 50 farewell concerts. He had gone right from a rehearsal to the rented mansion where he died.

The world's response surprised many of us who thought his glory days had largely passed. The whole Internet nearly crashed with a global burst of cyber-grief.

Thousands of fans visited the place where he died and his sidewalk star in Hollywood and his family compound in Encino and the Neverland Ranch, where he had no longer resided. More than 1.6 million people applied for tickets to his memorial.

Yesterday morning, the chosen few poured into the dimly lit arena. The most restrained applause Jackson had received in the nearly half-century since that first talent show at the Apollo Theater came when his brothers escorted his coffin, each wearing a single sequined glove.

After a hush so profound you could hear the hum of the air conditioning, a pastor said a few words. Then Mariah Carey appeared and sang "I'll Be There," the words and music touching that place of pure feeling.

There followed speakers and songs and grief and laughter that combined to give measure to how much life had left the man who now lay forever silent and still.

Near the end, performers, friends and family took the stage. Among them were the three children Jackson had taken such pains to keep from the public eye.

Paris was poignantly attentive to her younger brother, Blanket. She gave a first public measure of her strength as she joined in singing "We Are the World."

She sang with her head up, her eyes not on the spotlit coffin below, but out at all the people who were watching in the arena and on television. She seemed to know her father lived on in this music, in these words, in the millions who loved him, in the "We" that included everyone of every color.

That was followed by another song and words from Jackson's brother Marlon. Then came the moment when Janet Jackson lowered the microphone.

And brave young Paris spoke those first public words that would have meant more to her father than anything.

Words whose very truth gave her the courage to speak them. Words that told us who her father really was and maybe why he still touched so many everywhere.

shes on the front of the new OK magazine in the UK. picture or her and michael, think the edition has home pictures etc of the family, didnt have time to look through it, saw it in a queue!
 
Their lives will change so much now.

Mark Lester (I think it was him) said that he would take Michael's kids for walks and no one would know who they were, so their lives were truly perfectly normal. Not anymore.....not anymore :(

I just listened to "We've had enough"...

"She innocently questioned why, why her father had to die"

This song will never be the same to me :cry:
 
ow on earth did the "Ok!" magazine get those pictures? ...

Now I'm mad.
