Genetics often work in fascinating ways, and in Michael Jackson’s family, they’re undeniable. His son, Prince Michael Jackson II, famously nicknamed “Blanket,” is proof of that. Born in 2002 to an anonymous surrogate, Blanket became known worldwide after Michael was photographed holding him over a balcony in Germany—a moment that sparked controversy and gave rise to his nickname.
Now 21 years old, Blanket goes by the name Bigi Jackson. Unlike his father, he avoids the spotlight, preferring a private life far from the entertainment industry. While he doesn’t sing or dance, Bigi has embraced advocacy, particularly for environmental causes. “It’s important for our generation to focus on issues like the environment,” he’s stated, showing his commitment to making a positive impact.
Despite public speculation about his paternity, Bigi’s striking resemblance to Michael Jackson has silenced many doubters. Fans who’ve seen him in public are amazed by how much he mirrors his father’s looks, reminding them of the legendary King of Pop.
Bigi’s presence keeps Michael’s legacy alive, bringing joy to fans and ensuring the Jackson name endures.
