The 18-year-old aspiring actress recently scored her first television role in the Lee Daniels drama series 'Star', and Naomi - who has also filmed for a guest appearance in the show - can see great potential in Paris' acting ability.

Naomi said: "I just feel in my gut that she's going to be an incredible actress."

And whilst Naomi never got the chance to meet the blonde beauty during shooting for the show, she says she did once "have tea" with a very young Paris alongside her late father and musical icon Michael Jackson.

Speaking to People Now, the 46-year-old supermodel added: "I met Paris with her father, and I was very lucky enough before Michael passed away to have tea with Michael and the kids [Paris, Prince Michael and Blanket]."

Paris' acting dreams come after she said during an appearance on the 'Ellen Degeneres Show' in 2011 that she aspired to be like her late father, who starred in a number of movies.

She said at the time: "When I was really little. My dad was in the movie, 'Moonwalker', and I knew he could sing really well but I didn't know he could act.

"I saw that and I said, 'Wow, I want to be just like him.'"

Meanwhile, Paris looks set to start conquering Hollywood, as she recently signed a modelling contract IMG Models, which also oversees the careers of lots of famous faces including Gisele Bundchen, Gigi Hadid and Candice Swanepoel.

The agency's president, Ivan Bart, announced the news alongside a striking photograph of the blonde beauty on his Instagram profile earlier this month, saying: "One singular sensation!! Welcome Ms Jackson! @parisjackson #imgstar"

Paris also shared her joy over the deal, responding: "Thank you @imgmodels i feel very lucky and blessed."
