Michael Jackson’s thirteen year old daughter, Paris Jackson, is being recruited by the Lingerie Football League (LFL).
The LFL sent this letter to the Michael Jackson Estate after learning that Paris had become the first girl at her private school in LA to join the flag football league.

RE: Paris Jackson Youth LFL Program Initiative
Dear Mr. John Branca,
It was recently brought to the attention of the Lingerie Football League, LLC offices that Ms. Paris Jackson has a strong interest in the game of football and that she plans on competing within the boys team due to a lack of options for competitive female football.
Not sure that Ms. Jackson is aware that the fastest growing sports league in the nation (as per BUSINESSWEEK) is the Lingerie Football League broadcast nationally on MTV Networks’ – MTV channel weekly.
LFL Football has drawn some of the best female athletes from around the world, most coming from high-level college athletics with a great love for the game of football.
Due to the growth in popularity of LFL Football, we will be introducing youth clinics across the country to introduce the game of football to young ladies at an earlier stage in life. Providing young ladies the same opportunity alongside their male counter-parts to play football at a high-level garnering some of the same recognition of major men’s sport.
We at the LFL would like to invite Paris to become the spokesperson for the LFL’s youth program and perhaps start training for a future football career in the LFL when she reaches the age of 18yr old.
Sincerely,
Mitchell S. Mortaza
Commissioner
Lingerie Football League, LLC.
TMZ reports that LFL officials announced that the youth program will not wear lingerie. I would hope not.

Voice your opinion…
Do you believe that the LFL is truly trying to break down barriers for females in sports?
or
Is this a shameful publicity stunt that should result in civil action against the league?
