Marilyn Manson reaches out to Paris Jackson

Los Angeles - Marilyn Manson has offered his support to Paris Jackson.

The Tainted Love hitmaker was saddened by reports that Paris, 15 - the daughter of the late King of Pop Michael Jackson - had attempted suicide earlier this week and invited her to one of his shows when she is feeling better.

He told TMZ: "I hope you feel better. You will be on my guest list anytime you want."

It has been speculated Paris harmed herself after being denied permission to attend 44-year-old Marilyn's concert at the Gibson Amphitheater.

'Sensitive 15-year-old'

The alleged suicide attempt came shortly after Paris posted a series of dark messages on Twitter, including: "I wonder why tears are salty?"

She later added: "Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away now it looks as though they're here to stay. (sic)"

Meanwhile, Paris' grandmother Katherine Jackson insists her granddaughter is "physically fine" following the incident.

She said in a statement: "Paris is physically fine and getting appropriate medical attention.

"Being a sensitive 15-year-old is difficult no matter who you are. It is especially difficult when you lose the person closest to you.

"Please respect her privacy and the family's privacy."
