Paris Jackson has criticised an upcoming biopic of her father, Michael Jackson, saying she had “zero per cent involvement” in the film, which she suggests has been “sugar-coated” in a broader swipe at Hollywood biopics that contain “full-blown lies”.

The comments came just two days after the actor Colman Domingo, who plays the family patriarch Joe Jackson in the film Michael, praised Paris’s contribution.

On Sunday, while hosting the amfAR benefit gala for Aids research at Venice film festival, Domingo told People magazine that Paris and her brother Prince were “very much in support of our film”.

Domingo said Paris had been “nothing but lovely and warm” to him. “I’m excited to be here at Amfar tonight with Paris,” he said. “It feels like that’s a nice way for us to be together.”

On Tuesday night Paris took to Instagram to reject Domingo’s version of events.

“Don’t be telling people I was ‘helpful’ on the set of a movie I had zero per cent involvement in lol that is so weird,” the 27-year-old singer and actor wrote.

“I read one of the first drafts of the script and gave my notes about what was dishonest / didn’t sit right with me, and when they didn’t address it, I moved on with my life."
