Paris Jackson was taken to a nearby hospital early Wednesday morning, after reportedly harming herself.
Paris Jackson was rushed to the hospital early Wednesday morning after an attempted suicide, a lawyer for her grandmother, Katherine Jackson, confirmed to the Daily News.
"She's suffered with the loss of her father," the lawyer said. "But we don't know what she was exposed to that precipitated this."
Paris Jackson tweeted that an argument had escalated - though she did not say with whom.
LA County Fire officials confirmed to the News that they responded to an incident at the Jackson residence - though the call was for “a possible overdose.”
“I don't know if there were any self-inflicted injuries,” inspector Scott Miller said.
Previous reports suggest Jackson, 15, had cut her wrists.
According to TMZ, Michael Jackson's only daughter was wheeled out of her Calabasas home on a stretcher and taken by ambulance to a nearby hospital early in the morning.
The teenager's biological mother, Debbie Rowe, confirmed the ordeal to Entertainment Tonight - adding that Jackson is still hospitalized, and saying that she has had "a lot going on."
One rumor suggests Jackson threw a tantrum after learning she couldn't attend a Marilyn Manson concert on Thursday, which led her to attempt suicide, but a source close to the family told the News that isn’t true.
"She's okay," the source told the Daily News, scoffing at the idea that the teen would resort to suicide over missing a rock concert. "She's very outgoing and has been spending time lately with Debbie and the animals. This is more just a kid acting out."
Messages on Jackson's Twitter page Tuesday night and early into Wednesday morning do suggest the teenager may have been upset, but there’s no mention of any concert.
Around the time of the incident, she posted lyrics to the Beatles song "Yesterday."
"Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away now it looks as though they're here to stay," she wrote.
Before that, Jackson wrote "I wonder why tears are salty?" and "omg… that conversation escalated quickly" - though she doesn't mention who or what she's referring to.
A TMZ source close to the teenager also suggested Jackson has attempted suicide "in the past" but added that this time it was "far more serious."
"It was not a cry for help," said the source.
