Paris Jackson was shamed for her armpit hair, and isn't having a bar of it.

Paris Jackson has been growing her armpit hair for two months and “so many people are mad about it”.

“I didn’t realise that people were going to get so upset over my armpit hair,” the 18-year-old shared on her Instagram story yesterday. “I didn’t realise that was such an issue. It is so funny.”

And an "issue" it apparently is.

No matter that Jackson speaks out for human rights and environmental issues and water conservation, the fact she's growing her armpit hair has people messaging her in disbelief and threatening to "unfollow" her .

"People are really mad," she continued. "I wish I could post some of these responses. You can just tell how angry and infuriated these people are..."

Jackson doesn't stop there.

"I love hair, and sweat, and BO. I f*cking love it, I think it’s great," Jackson said. "Some people think that it’s like super disgusting, especially on girls, but every human body does it. It’s natural. Get over it."

"Two months," she continued. "It took me two months to grow that sh*t. It’s not a lot, it’s really not, but I’m f*cking proud of it. Really proud. And so many people are so mad."

Thankfully, Jackson has received support from followers applauding her for doing exactly what she pleases with her own body.

Why the controversy? If I forget to shave my pits for one day I have 5 times more hair. I think it's more concerning that an 18 year old is covered in so many crappy tattoos. I am all for body art, but her collection of random crap at such a young age is ridiculous.

To paraphrase her own Tweet: what the hell IS she doing with her life? She can't help who her father was, but there's nothing stopping her from doing more worthwhile stuff than just being famous. Does she even have a job? High school education? Anything?
