The episode which has Paris all riled up is based on the claims by a Vanity Fair article that Michael Jackson, Elizabeth Taylor and Marlon Brando all drove out of New York by car following the September 11 attacks because all the airports were closed.
After the trailer for the Jackson episode was released, Paris expressed her outrage via her Twitter account.
“I’m so incredibly offended by it, as I’m sure plenty of people are as well, and it honestly makes me want to vomit.” She wrote.
“It angers me to see how obviously intentional it was for them to be this insulting, not just towards by father, but my godmother Liz as well.” She continued.
In another tweet she asked, “Where is the respect?” And referred to Fiennes portrayal of her father as shameful.
“They worked through blood, sweet and tears for ages to create such profound and remarkable legacies. Shameful portrayal.”
When asked by a Twitter user about her late father identifying as black, she replied,
"He made a point of it plenty of times to express his pride in his roots. He would never have wanted this.”
Recall that Fiennes had previously defended being cast as the king of pop, saying that Michael Jackson had an issue with his pigmentation and “was probably closer to my color than his original color.

Funny enough, I never considered him to be black and from the look of things. .He was never accepted as white. What a waste
Ok

Lol is she micheals biological child?mike was black and she has no single trait of been black.hair,color etc.why the outrage even mike didn't want to be black hence he went and got white kids.abeg she should stfu
Some days are like that.
Was he not a white man before?
I seriously don't get the outrage over this. It's not like he's portraying Michael Jackson as a black man. What do they suggest they should have done? Cast a black actor and paint him? Would have been worse.
Very weird look.

He was accepted as white...and never seen as black. That's the honest truth. I feel he had a deep inferiority complex. His kids don't have a drop of blackness in them. Asides that, chance white people get, they strip the blackness from him.
And I don't blame them in a way. Why won't black Americans act a movie based on his life instead and cast who they want. So far it's white Americans directing and investing in the movie, they will cast who they want.
HMMMMMM
