Paris Jackson Gets Haircut, Security Collects DNA

Paris Jackson got her first haircut in Las Vegas over the weekend, but the 11-year-old daughter of Michael Jackson didn't fully part ways with her locks.

According to the Daily Mail (UK) reports that after Paris Jackson's haircut, her security team gathered up every last hair and put it in a plastic bag.

The reason? To ensure that Paris' DNA will not be used for any paternity testing: "Can you imagine the value of Paris's hair? DNA, the truth, finally."

Lately, rumors about the biological father of Paris' brother Blanket (a.k.a. Prince Michael) have sprouted, one focusing a famous MJ pal: Macaulay Culkin.

Since 1990, the bond between the one-time child star and Jackson was tight, with Culkin even publicly defending him during his 2005 molestation trial.

Though Culkin denied the paternity claim, another friend and godfather to the Jackson kids, Mark Lester, went on Today to confirm that he donated sperm to Jackson in the 1990s, saying he's possibly the father of Paris Jackson.

He went so far as to bring his daughter Harriet on the show to show her similarities to Paris. In light of the rumors, however, Marlon Jackson spoke out, saying, "Those were Michael's kids - regardless of where they came from."

Alright then.

There's also Dr. Arnold Klein, who like Lester gave sperm to Jackson and was friend of the singer. He says he's not opposed to a DNA test ... maybe, someday.

One thing's for sure - the Jackson family has certainly come together to help Michael's three children cope with the loss of the man they knew as their father.

Paris' coping strategy appears to be shopping, as she made her way through the Palms resort with her grandmother and guardian Katherine, toting bags.
