Jackson, who has openly expressed his desire to live more slowly and enjoy the present as he enters his thirties, faces a challenging balance between his public persona and personal life.
Instances like these serve as reminders of the importance of respecting idols' privacy and ensuring their safety, both physically and emotionally, as they navigate their careers in the spotlight.
