Paris Jackson, the 18-year-old daughter of Michael Jackson, is set to make her acting debut in Fox's Star later this season, and the role is a no-brainer.

Jackson will play Rachel Wells, described as "a young, super-chic, stylish and intimidating social media guru who oversees a publicity shoot of the girl group and deliberately goads Star (Jude Demorest) and Eva (guest star Sharlene Taulé) into pushing some boundaries."

After many years out of the spotlight, Jackson has become increasingly outspoken in recent months, telling Rolling Stone that she believes her father was murdered: "It's obvious. All arrows point to that. It sounds like a total conspiracy theory and it sounds like bullshit, but all real fans and everybody in the family knows it. It was a setup. It was bullshit." Jackson also weighed in on Sky Arts' controversial decision to cast Joseph Fiennes as her late father in a UK comedy special called Urban Myths, about the untold stories behind celebrity friendships. "i'm so incredibly offended by it, as i'm sure plenty of people are as well, and it honestly makes me want to vomit," she tweeted earlier this month. The episode was later shelved, with Sky Arts citing the Jackson family's critical response as the reason behind the cancellation. Star airs Wednesdays at 9 p.m. on Fox.
