What’s the best way to honour your father after his passing? Well if you’re Paris Jackson, and your father was the King of Pop, it’s to get a very permanent reminder!

Paris payed tribute to her music legend dad by getting a rather large tattoo on her forearm.

The tattoo is a hyper realistic recreation of the pop star’s Dangerous album cover artwork, featuring Michael’s eyes peering out from intricate designs.

Alongside the picture of her new ink, the 18-year-old wrote a quote from her megastar father’s 1992 book Dancing the Dream: “The meaning of life is contained in every single expression of life. It is present in the infinity of forms and phenomena that exists in all of creation.”

Paris’s new ink tribute to her dad is a perfect replica of his Dangerous album cover artwork.

Paris had extensive designs practiced before deciding on what she wanted.

Then she followed it up with her own addition. “Never forget your roots and always be proud of where you came from.”

Michael’s album Dangerous gave the world some of his biggest hits of all time, including Black or White.

It’s not the first time the teen has gotten inked to celebrate her dad. In April, a newly platinum blonde Paris had the words “Queen of my heart” etched on her wrist in Michael’s handwriting.

“To everyone else he was the King of Pop,” she said. “To me, well, he was king of my heart.”

Paris’s first tattoo for her dad was a small phrase on her wrist.

Paris has had a rocky childhood, with her father passing away when she was just 11 years old.

She and her siblings Prince Michael, 19, and Blanket, 14 were thrust into the limelight following the star’s death, as he’d largely tried to shield them from public eye while he was alive.

Paris has drastically changed her appearance since then, chopping off her long locks and dying her hair orange, and then platinum blonde.
