Bigi Jackson, son of pop icon Michael Jackson, has stepped into the spotlight with his striking resemblance to his famous father and a newfound career path in filmmaking. Formerly known as Blanket, Bigi has chosen to forge his own identity separate from his father’s musical legacy.

Michael Jackson, renowned for his groundbreaking dance moves and music, was married twice in his life. His first marriage to Lisa-Marie Presley, daughter of the King of Rock, ended in divorce in 1996. Later, he married Debbie Rowe, a nurse and longtime friend, resulting in two children: Michael Joseph Jackson Jr. (known as Prince) and Paris-Michael Katherine Jackson. Bigi, however, was born via surrogate and was given the nickname Blanket, a name that stuck throughout his early years.

Now 21 years old, Bigi prefers to go by his new name and has settled into a quiet life in Calabasas, California. Unlike his siblings, he has chosen filmmaking over music, fulfilling a childhood dream shared with his father. Despite the public curiosity surrounding his family’s dynamics, Bigi remains focused on his passion for directing, having established his own production company, King’s Son.

Bigi’s journey reflects his desire for privacy while embracing his father’s artistic legacy in his own way, far from the musical spotlight that defined Michael Jackson’s career.
