The King of Pop’s son was seen out on a solo lunch outing, which quickly stirred a flurry of fan comments. Many many pointed out his remarkable likeness to his father.

Bigi Jackson, who went by Blanket until his name change in 2015, made a rare public appearance on October 10, 2024. He was dressed casually in a faded gray Avengers T-shirt paired with green athletic shorts, black sneakers, and white crew socks.

His dark hair, parted in the middle and tucked behind his ears, complemented his facial hair. Bigi, typically out of the spotlight, is the younger sibling of Paris Jackson, 26, and Prince Jackson, 27. He was born via a surrogate in 2002 as Prince Michael Jackson II before now settling on the name Bigi.

Fans who saw photos from this outing pointed out the striking resemblance between Bigi and his late father. One fan commented, “He looks alot [sic] like MJ,” clearly seeing the connection. Another user exclaimed, “😮 Yup, spitting image😳😳,” expressing shock at the strong likeness.

“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.

“I see the resemblance 👀 😏,” commented another viewer, who agreed with the comparisons. One fan emphasized, “He looks just like his daddy Michael!” underscoring the likeness. Another user stated, “He looks so much like his father michael and he looks like sad [sic],” hinting at both the resemblance and an observed expression.

Finally, one fan noticed the likeness even from afar, writing, “He looks so much like Michael especially from behind. Where’s the body guards [sic] though?” The similarities between Bigi Jackson and the legendary singer clearly captivated fans, sparking this lively conversation online.

Michael was once caught up in a controversial moment involving Bigi, which sparked online criticism. When Bigi was just nine months old, his father held him over a hotel balcony in Berlin, with a towel covering the infant’s face, to present him to fans below.

Michael reportedly aimed for a grand “Lion King” moment. He was showing Bigi to fans outside his Berlin hotel window after receiving requests from them as they wanted to catch a glimpse of his newborn son. This act drew widespread reproach for putting his child at risk.

Michael apologized in a statement, “I offer no excuses for what happened. I made a terrible mistake. I got caught up in the excitement of the moment. I would never intentionally endanger the lives of my children.”

Among Michael’s children, Bigi faced the greatest difficulty in coping with his father’s passing. He seemed particularly lost and deeply affected by the loss, struggling more than his siblings. Still, a family insider shared that Michael’s children carry on with their lives as if he is always watching over them.

As per another family friend, Michael Jackson’s sons, Bigi and Prince found solace in each other as best friends who bond over their love for science and science fiction.

In November 2021, the siblings hosted a Thriller Night event at their Hayvenhurst home to benefit the Heal Los Angeles Foundation. At the event, Bigi spoke of his father’s legacy and his focus on climate change.

He highlighted the fascinating aspects of the Hayvenhurst house and studio, noting the rich history associated with them, which he believes reflects Michael’s legacy. He also mentioned that his siblings share a common goal of creating work that not only brings enjoyment but also positively impacts people’s lives.

Bigi also expressed his commitment to climate change, emphasizing its significance and the work still needed in this area. He believes that his generation is aware of its importance and is ready to take action.

During Michael’s lifetime, he consistently emphasized to his children the importance of having each other, urging them to maintain a close bond. Prince Jackson was tasked with taking care of his younger siblings and leading by example.

After Michael’s passing, the siblings made it a priority to look out for one another, recognizing and celebrating each other’s individual strengths. Now,
