Paris Jackson is enjoying a break from traffic after touring parts of the US with her band since May.
And on Sunday, the singer-songwriter took a stroll through the streets of West Hollywood with her beloved Doberman Pincher, named Koa.
The date, June 25, actually holds a lot of meaning for the Just You starlet, as it marks the 14th year since her superstar father, Michael Jackson, died of cardiac arrest induced by a propofol and benzodiazepine overdose .
The Beverly Hills native, who is always thinking about her fashion choices, performed in navy skinny jeans with holes in both knees and a brown and tan patterned jacket over a black tee.
She also wore a pair of black high-top sneakers and had her long dark brown locks combed back from her face with a small parting on the right side, adding an extra touch of volume.

Jackson, 25, walked the sidewalk and through several streets while holding on to her dog’s leash.
In the scorching sunshine and a temperature of over 21 degrees Celsius, the stylish star also wore cool, large-rimmed sunglasses.
Koa appeared to be wearing a dark harness across the front of his body and a blue headscarf around his neck.
Jackson showed signs of being a solid pack leader and consistently walked with her four-legged family members at her side, which amounts to a proper dog walk.
The Baidaid musician toured for about a month before arriving back home in Los Angeles.
Her performances have included performances at such major venues as the 2023 Bonnaroo Music And Arts Festival and the 2023 BottleRock Napa Valley Music Festival.
According to their website, Jackson and her band will continue their summer tour on July 8th and 9th with a performance at Cleveland’s Wonderstruck Festival.
They are expected to play in Grand Junction, Colorado, through August 29th, then take a break before making a big homecoming gig at Los Angeles’ famed Hollywood Bowl on October 6th.

On this day in 2009, news of Michael Jackson’s death began to spread, coming just three weeks before the start of his sold-out concert residency in London, England.
Paramedics received an 911 call at 12:22 p.m. PT saying the so-called King Of Pop was not breathing. EMTs arrived just three minutes late and began CPR on him en route to Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center.
Ultimately, Jackson was pronounced dead at 2:26 p.m. PT, more than an hour after he arrived at the hospital.
As the days and weeks went by, it became known that his personal physician, Dr. Conrad Murray who administered various medications to Jackson at his rented mansion in Holmby Hills, Los Angeles, to help him sleep.
Paris Jackson was just 11 years old when she received the heartbreaking news of her father’s death.

She leaves her mark: The rocker released the EP “The Lost” in February 2022 and her solo LP “Wilted” in November 2020.
“They always say, ‘Time heals,'” Jackson said in a 2017 Rolling Stone interview when she was 18. “But that’s really not true.” You just get used to it. I live with the mentality, “OK, I’ve lost the only thing that was ever important to me.” So in the future, whatever bad thing happens can’t be nearly as bad as what happened before. So that I can deal with it.’
At the time, she revealed that her father used to visit her regularly in her dreams.
“I feel like he’s with me all the time,” she added.
Within four years of her father’s death, Paris descended into depression and a drug addiction, which led to her attempting suicide at age 15 by slitting her wrist and taking 20 Motrin pills.
Paris called this period of her life a matter of “self-loathing” and “low self-esteem.”
In addition, she began harming herself by “cutting” herself, which she hid from her family.
Now, 10 years after those dark days, Paris Jackson seems to be showing herself on the other side and starting a career in rock music.

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