Looking like a picture of happiness and good health, Paris Jackson enjoyed a date night with her boyfriend, Gabriel Glenn, hours after she was reportedly hospitalized following an alleged suicide attempt which the daughter of the late Michael Jackson vehemently denies. Paris and her main squeeze were spotted heading to Universal Studios to take in a movie. They also enjoyed one of her dad’s favorite foods, Kentucky Fried Chicken on Saturday night. The model/actress appeared to be in good spirits and seemingly enjoyed the evening. It is obvious there was no suicide attempt nor was she placed on a 72-hour hold as had been falsely reported.

It looks like Idris Elba is about to walk down the aisle of matrimony any day now.
