Michael Jackson’s 22-year-old son was seen with a relaxed expression while eating Mexican food at Sharky’s restaurant in Calabasas, California.
The King of Pop’s son was spotted for a solo lunch, which sparked a rush of fan comments. Many people noted his uncanny resemblance to his father.
Bigi Jackson, who went by Blanket before changing his name in 2015, made a rare public appearance on October 10, 2024. He was dressed casually, with a faded gray Avengers T-shirt, green athletic shorts, black sneakers, and white crew socks.

“I think he looks like Michael,” said another, sharing the same sentiment. “I 100% believe that this is Michael Jackson’s only true biological child😍,” remarked a fan who was convinced of the family connection.
Michael was previously caught up in a contentious situation involving Bigi, which attracted online cri:tici:sm.
When Bigi was nine months old, his father held him over a hotel balcony in Berlin, a towel covering his face, to introduce him to fans below.
Michael apparently aimed for a spectacular “Lion King” moment. He was showing Bigi to supporters outside his Berlin hotel window after they requested to see his newborn baby. This act garnered widespread criticism for placing his child in danger.
Bigi, among Michael’s children, had the most difficult time coping with his father’s d.e.a.t.h. He seemed especially forlorn and affected by the loss, struggling more than his siblings. Nonetheless, a family insider revealed that Michael’s children live their lives as if he is always watching over them.

According to another family member, Michael Jackson’s boys, Bigi and Prince, found solace in each other as best friends who bonded over their love of science and science fiction.
Throughout Michael’s life, he continuously emphasized to his children the value of having each other and encouraged them to keep a tight link. Prince Jackson was tasked with caring for his younger siblings and setting an example.
Following Michael’s passing, the siblings made it a point to look out for one another, acknowledging and celebrating their unique qualities. Now, as they pursue their own passions and navigate their hectic lives, they treasure every moment they can spend together.
