Paris Jackson looks pensive on stroll with her beloved dog on 14th anniversary of father Michael Jackson's death
Paris Jackson is enjoying a break from the road after making her way around parts of the U.S. with her band since May.
And on Sunday, the singer-songwriter headed out on a walk with her beloved Doberman Pincher named Koa along the streets of West Hollywood.
The date, June 25, actually has a huge significance to the Just You starlet, as it marks the 14th year since her superstar father, Michael Jackson, died from cardiac arrest, caused by a propofol and benzodiazepine overdose.
Always one to put thought into her fashion choices, the Beverly Hills native stepped out in dark blue skinny jeans with holes on both knees and a brown and tan-patterned jacket over a black t-shirt.
She also donned a pair of black high-top sneakers, and had her long dark brown tresses teased back off her her face with a slight part on the right, all while adding an extra touch of volume.

It was on this day in 2009 that the news began to spread of Michael Jackson's death, which came just three weeks before his sold out concert residency was due to begin in London, England.
Paramedics received a 911 call at 12:22 p.m. PT about reports that the so-called King Of Pop was not breathing, Emergency workers arrived just three minutes late and began performing CPR on him, all the way en route to Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center.
Ultimately, Jackson was pronounced dead at 2:26 pm PT, which was more than an hour after arriving at the hospital.
Over the days and weeks it was revealed that his personal physician, Dr. Conrad Murray, had given Jackson various medications to help him sleep at his rented mansion in Holmby Hills in Los Angeles.
Paris Jackson was just 11-years-old when she was given the heartbreaking news about her father's passing.

'They always say, "Time heals,"' Jackson said in a Rolling Stone interview in 2017, when she was 18. 'But it really doesn’t. You just get used to it. I live life with the mentality of "OK, I lost the only thing that has ever been important to me." So going forward, anything bad that happens can’t be nearly as bad as what happened before. So I can handle it.'
At the time, she revealed how her dad had been visiting her regularly in her dreams.
'I feel him with me all the time,' she added.
Within four years of the death of her father, Paris was 'drowning in depression and a drug addiction' leading to a suicide attempt at 15, by slashing her wrist and downing 20 Motrin pills.
Paris called that period of her life a matter of 'self-hatred' and 'low self-esteem.'
And on top of all that she also began self-harming, by 'cutting herself', which she managing to conceal from her family.
Now, 10 years on from those dark days, Paris Jackson appears to have come to come out on the other side, throwing herself into a career in rock music.

Most recently, she released her single Bandaid and its soft-hard dynamic between the verses and chorus, that's been a stylized songwriting tool for alternative rock bands of yesteryear like Nirvana.
Her previous single, Just You, that dropped in 2022, is also another catchy sing-along, mid-tempo rock romper.
Jackson last released a batch of new songs with The Lost EP, which is just that, an extended play that dropped in February 2022 through Republic Records.
Just a few years ago, the musician was releasing music as part of the musical duo The Soundflowers, alongside Gabriel Glenn.
With a stripped down acoustic sound, including Jackson on vocals and a ukulele and Glenn on guitar and vocal, The Soundflowers dropped their first self-titled EP in June 2020.
