Paris Jackson says drug use made a hole in her nose
Paris Jackson has opened up about the physical effects of drug use nearly six years after getting sober.
In a TikTok video posted Monday, Jackson begins by sharing a dream in which she was a guest on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” and discussed additives in American foods and their correlation to mental health. He then goes on to talk about his journey to sobriety and explain why he has a “very loud whistling sound” when he breathes through his nose.
“I have what’s called a perforated septum, slightly different than a deviated septum. And that’s what you think it is,” Jackson says after using his phone’s flashlight to show viewers.
“Don’t do drugs, kids. Or rather, do them. You’ll all get the experience you need with life,” he says, adding that he didn’t want to “tell anyone what to do.”
“But I don’t recommend it because it ruined my life,” he adds.

Jackson also explains why he doesn’t want to fix the problem.
“I don’t want to have plastic surgery to fix it because I’ve been sober for almost six years,” she says, citing concerns about aftercare, which involves taking pills.
Michael Jackson’s daughter said she has dealt with this condition since she was 20 years old and notes that “it’s a bitch” to deal with it when she sings in the studio. He concluded by revealing that he can shove spaghetti up his nose hole.
In an Instagram post in January, Jackson celebrated five years of sobriety.

“Today marks 5 years clean and sober from all drugs and alcohol. To say I am grateful would be a poor understatement. Gratitude barely scratches the surface. It is because I am sober that I can smile today,” she wrote.
