Michael Jackson's youngest son Bigi 'Blanket' Jackson looks grown up at 22
Michael Jackson's youngest son Blanket Jackson, looks quite different while celebrating his 22nd birthday.
Bigi was nicknamed 'Blanket' after his late father the king of pop Michael, famously dangled him from a balcony to show fans his newborn.
Now at 22, he's grown into a tall, dark and handsome young man - who is already winning awards for his artistry. He scooped up Best Drama for his short film Rochelles at the Santa Monica Film Festival.

They posted on social media: "Bro is killing it. Chasing his dreams and winning awards."
He was seen in a rare family Instagram snap alongside his Jackson cousins. He posed alongside Jermaine Jackson's sons Randy Jackson Jr., Donté Jackson, Royal Jackson and Jermajesty Jackson as well as Norwegian rapper Omer Bhatti. The gang was snapped as they enjoyed time out in what appeared to be a bar for his 22nd birthday.
Bhatti shared the snap to his Instagram alongside the palm tree emoji as he wrote: "Lately". One of his other sightings was last year when he attended a Cirque du Soleil performance of One alongside siblings Paris and Prince in honour of what would have been his father's 65th birthday.
Fans, however, aren't too shocked by his growth. One said on Newsbreak: "He is 22-years-old. Is he supposed to look like a toddler? AI is not very good at generating headlines."
Another chimed in: "Of course he looks grown up at 22 because he's an adult." Fans got a glimpse of Bigi earlier this year too.
Blanket is rarely seen by the public and typically keeps a very low profile. He is occassionally seen out with his family at events.
His legal name is Prince Michael Jackson II, but nowadays he often goes by Bigi. He also became known as the "invisible boy," due to the way he shied away from the public.
He was born in 2002, but the identity of his mother is unknown because she was reportedly a surrogate. He was only seven years old when his father died and PEOPLE magazine reported that he "acted very lost and extremely upset." A family friend told the publication: “The kids live like Michael is constantly looking down upon them... [Blanket] has had the most problems adjusting after Michael died."
