At the 66th annual Grammy Awards, a familiar face emerged from the limousine, yet there was something strikingly different about her. Paris Jackson, daughter of Michael Jackson, graced the red carpet of the 2024 Grammys with an appearance that had fans and fashion enthusiasts alike doing a double take.
Paris is no stranger to the spotlight, having grown up in the glare of her father’s fame. Known for her bohemian vibe and a canvas of over 80 tattoos, Paris’ tattoos have always been a significant part of her public persona. From the seven chakras inked down her sternum to the tribute to her late father on her wrist, each tattoo tells a story.
Yet, at the Grammys, she presented a wholly different image. The myriad of tattoos that usually adorned her body were nowhere to be seen. Instead, Paris appeared with a flawless, unblemished look that left everyone talking.
“Well, I like switching things up,” Jackson told Entertainment Tonight, hinting at the reason behind her drastic transformation.
Covering up over 80 tattoos is no small feat, but Paris pulled it off with aplomb. “CoverFX meant business when they said total cover cream foundation would have me covered,” Paris captioned a video capturing the transformation process. The time-lapse footage features two makeup artists painstakingly covering up tattoos quite literally from head to toe.
And while some fans expressed some confusion the comments section as to why Paris would want to cover up her tattoos, she couldn’t help but gush that she was “in love with my alter ego” in an Instagram post showing off her ink-free look for the awards show.
“I love my tattoos, I love my piercings, I love all the body modification stuff, art, and also sometimes I don’t want it to distract from the art that is the fashion I’m wearing,” Paris explained on the red carpet.
Her dramatic switch-up, though temporary, is a testament to her multifaceted personality and her ability to keep the world guessing. It’s clear that Paris Jackson is not afraid to take risks when it comes to expressing herself, whether through her tattoos, her fashion, or her dramatic transformations. And as she continues to evolve and grow, we can only look forward to what she’ll do next.
