Paris Jackson Taken To Hospital After Alleged Suicide Attempt

Paris Jackson was rushed to the hospital early this morning after a possible suicide attempt. At this point, the details surrounding the traumatic incident are still extremely fuzzy and unreliable, but we do know a 911 call went out a little before 1:30 AM and police wheeled Jackson out on a stretcher about a half hour later.

According to TMZ, the fifteen-year-old reportedly argued with family members earlier in the evening about attending a concert. She also tweeted out some lyrics from the Beatles’ classic “Yesterday”. When she discovered later on, she reportedly had some cut marks on her wrist and she may or may not have taken some pills.

Over the past few years, Jackson’s life has been pretty trying. After her father died, there were numerous custody issues and now, she’s been forced to deal with a wrongful death trial in which her father’s name is being covered in mud and a fresh round of allegations that he was a pedophile. No doubt all of that has weighed very heavily on her mind.

Everyone goes through periods in which life isn’t a whole lot of fun, but with enough positivity and stick-to-itiveness, things do change. Life does get better. Pop Blend sends out its sincerest well-wishes to Jackson and her entire family right now during this time of need. Here’s to hoping she makes a full recovery and everything begins improving sooner rather than later.
