Michael Jackson's daughter says 'Ellen' about acting dreams

Michael Jackson's daughter says she was inspired to be an actress after seeing her father in the film Moonwalker."My dad was in the movie Moonwalker and I knew he could sing really well, but I didn't know he could act," Paris Jackson told on Thursday.



“My dad was in the movie Moonwalker and I knew he could sing really well, but I didn't know he could act ... I saw that and I said, Wow, I want to be just like him”



"I saw that and I said, 'Wow, I want to be just like him.'"The film featuring Jackson's signature dance move and other videos was released in 1988. Paris said her father encouraged her and did improvisation sessions to develop her skills.



The 13-year-old has been cast alongside Larry King in a film based on a new children's book, Lundon's Bridge and the Three Keys, which is in early stages of development.The Internet Movie Database, known as IMDB, shows the film is tentatively scheduled for a 2013 release, although filmmakers have not presented the teen's proposed acting contract to a Los Angeles court as required because she is a minor.
