Michael Jackson was honored with the title of “King of Pop” due to his remarkable dancing routines and innovative musical compositions, which earned him a significant place in the Hollywood production industry. His impact extended beyond his period, becoming an inspiration to a great number of pop performers. Let us now look into the story of his children, namely Bigi Jackson, who was once known as Blanket. Bigi Jackson inherited not only his father’s ability but also a stunning likeness to his renowned father.
Michael Jackson was married three times throughout his lifetime. At the beginning of his career, he tied the knot with Lisa-Marie Presley, who was the daughter of the icon Elvis Presley. On the other hand, their marriage did not last long, and they divorced in the year 1996. After that, Michael tied the knot with Debbie Rowe, a nurse and a friend. Together, they welcomed two children into the world: Paris-Michael Katherine Jackson and Michael Joseph Jackson Jr., who is often referred to as Prince. In the same year, 1999, this marriage also terminated in divorce.
Only a limited amount of information is known regarding the mother of Michael Jackson’s third child, Prince Michael Jackson II, who was born via surrogacy. surrounding the fact that both boys were referred to as Prince, there was some misunderstanding surrounding the fact that they were born on February 21, 2002, which was five years after Michael Jr. The moniker “Prince” is often used to refer to Michael Jr., but the identity of the second son, who is formally known as Prince, is recorded on his birth certificate.
Throughout the majority of his life, Blanket, also known as Prince Michael Jackson II, concealed himself from the view of the general public. As a result of his recent rise to prominence, we are starting to get more information on him. The nickname “Blanket” was given to him by Michael because he would wrap him in a blanket whenever they went out in public as a sign of his affection and concern for him.
Blanket, who is now 21 years old, has abandoned the pseudonym and instead goes by the name “Bigi” Jackson at this point. Due to the fact that Bigi has a strong likeness to his legendary father, notably in his deep-set eyes and pronounced cheekbones, he often thrill followers of Michael Jackson with his similarity. On the other hand, ever since his father passed away when he was just seven years old, his life has been very difficult for him, which has resulted in times of quiet owing to the great grief he feels.
Bigi decided to pursue a career in cinema rather than music, following in the footsteps of his internationally acclaimed father and siblings. He has been living in Calabasas, California, for the last several years, and he is making significant efforts to fulfill his ambition of becoming a film director. Bigi Jackson declared his desire to become a filmmaker in a documentary that was released in 2012 and was named “Jacksonology: Our Story.” In the documentary, Bigi shared how he used to make short films at home with his brothers and cousins throughout his childhood. His father, Michael Jackson, encouraged him to pursue this passion.
