Bigi and brother Prince Jackson sported matching tributes to their late father

Michael Jackson’s son, Bigi “Blanket” Jackson, made a rare public appearance to help honor his late father’s legacy.

Bigi, 24, attended the world premiere of Michael, a new biopic about his famous dad, in Berlin on Friday, April 10.

There, he was joined by his cousin, Jaafar Jackson, who portrays the King of Pop in the movie, and his older brother, Prince Jackson.

Both Bigi and Prince, 29, honored their dad — who died at age 50 in 2009 — with their looks, wearing armbands that were a nod to one of Michael’s signature looks.

The pop star wore the armbands largely as a symbol of helping children in need. His sons’ armbands, meanwhile, featured a photo of Michael’s feet in one of the singer’s iconic dance moves.

Bigi’s appearance in Berlin marked his first time attending a public event since he showed his support during the preview night of MJ: The Musical at London’s Prince Edward Theatre in March 2024.

There, he was joined by brother Prince and their sister, Paris Jackson.

Recently, Paris, 28, has been absent from events promoting Michael — produced by co-executors of the Michael Jackson estate, John Branca and John McClain — due to her desire to distance herself from the project.

The soon-to-be-released Lionsgate biopic will highlight Michael’s “life off-stage and some of the most iconic performances from his early solo career,” per an official synopsis.

Jaafar, 29 — the son of Michael’s brother, Jermaine Jackson — said in a behind-the-scenes video for the film, “I never dreamed to be an actor or even thought of playing him. But I knew it was a calling.”

“Embodying Michael, I really had to earn the role and prove to the filmmakers that I was capable of becoming Michael. Essentially, it was starting at the roots and finding the authenticity,” he added.

Michael is in theaters on April 24.
