Girls Can Play Football Too And I'll Prove It----Says MJ's Daughter 'Paris Jackson'

Michael Jackson's only daughter wants to be a football star -- and according to TMZ she's joined her school's pigskin squad to prove girls CAN dominate on the gridiron.

Sure, it's only flag football ... but 13-year-old Paris Jackson has become the VERY FIRST female in the history of her exclusive L.A. private school to jet into the team. Smart girl.

Her father would be proud ... don't forget MJ performed that LEGENDARY halftime show at Super Bowl XXVII back in 1993.
