Michael Jackson’s youngest son, Prince Michael Jackson II, formerly known as “Blanket,” has taken a bold step in redefining his identity by adopting a new nickname. Born in 2002 via surrogate, he was originally given the name “Blanket” due to his father’s habit of covering his face with a blanket to shield him from the public’s gaze.

The nickname “Blanket” stayed with him during his early years, but in 2015, he chose to rebrand himself as “Bigi” Jackson. This change marked a new chapter in his life, one where he aimed to move away from the legacy of his childhood name.

Despite being the son of one of the most legendary figures in music, Bigi has shown little interest in pursuing a career in music. Instead, he has become a passionate advocate for environmental issues, with a particular focus on combating climate change.

In a 2021 interview, Bigi discussed his dedication to addressing climate change and emphasized the importance of raising awareness about this urgent global issue.

In the interview, Bigi shared his respect for the history and creativity that defined his father’s work, but he also highlighted the importance of making a positive impact on the world. He remarked, “That’s what each of us want to do, make some things that people hopefully enjoy but also that benefit their lives.”

Bigi’s commitment to climate activism highlights his deep concern for the environment and a strong sense of responsibility toward future generations.

After Michael Jackson’s passing in 2009, Bigi, along with his siblings Prince Michael Jackson I and Paris Jackson, was raised by their grandmother, Katherine Jackson. Today, Bigi lives independently in a mansion in California.

The public’s response to Bigi’s name change and his dedication to climate activism has been largely positive. Many have applauded his strength in dealing with the loss of his father and for his determination to make a meaningful impact on the world. Supporters have also expressed admiration for his focus on climate change, wishing him success in his efforts.

Although he comes from a legendary musical family, Bigi has openly acknowledged that he doesn’t share his father’s talents in singing or dancing. Instead, he is channeling his energy into raising awareness about environmental issues and motivating others to take action against climate change.

Recently, Paris Jackson, Michael Jackson’s daughter, turned heads with her “sultry” dress, sparking a buzz among fans.
