Michael Jackson's Son Formerly Known As Blanket Opens Up About Father's Legacy

Prince Michael Jackson II, formerly known as Blanket Jackson and now, Bigi, opened up about father Michael Jackson "for the first time" in a late October "Good Morning Britain" interview. Speaking from childhood home, The Jackson Family Home — where brother Prince Michael Jackson was hosting his "Thriller Night Halloween Party," a fundraiser for The Heal Los Angeles Foundation (via the Daily Mail) — Bigi shared some fond insights into his father.

"There's a lot of history in this house and the studio here," Bigi (seen above) reminisced. "That's what he was all about. That's what each of us want to do and make things that people can enjoy and hopefully benefit their lives." He confessed, however, that people shouldn't expect him to be a global entertainer like his father. Telling Good Morning Britain he would often head to his dad's room "while he was getting ready for something and watch," Bigi noted (via the Daily Mail), "He was a good dancer, he was a very good dancer. I can't dance or sing ... I'm not that kind of person who sings and dances."

Much like big sister Paris Jackson, Bigi is determined to forge his own path. "When I grow up I want to be a director because it's fun, and I make little movies when I'm at my house with cousins and friends," recalling that Michael told him to "follow whatever you want to do."
