Late Micheal Jackson's son, Blanket Jackson; the same baby the pop star dangled over the balcony for the press photographers 13 years ago amid criticism at that time that he was endangering his life, is now a teenager!
According to Radar Online, the 13 year old youngest son of the late pop King has changed his name from Blanket Jackson to Bigi Jackson after enduring years of painful bullying.
He reportedly resented his father for giving him the name Blanket that became the butt of jokes to his peers for years.
Born Michael Jackson Jr., the 13-year-old, who is just completing 7th grade at The Buckley School in Sherman Oaks, California, “changed his name informally from Blanket to Bigi before entering Buckley because he hated getting bullied and made fun of because his name was Blanket,” an insider told Radar.
“Growing up, his school mates have always been slightly mean to him because of their jealousy over who he is and going by Blanket made him a much easier target for ridicule.”
Blanket who has been home schooled for years enrolled in the Buckley school at Sherman Oaks, California as Bigi and has been there for about a year now.
His new name Bigi, is said to come from a German origin and means idealistic, sensitive, and inspirational.

Simple...b/c he was conceived under the blanket.
DeleteHe's already a big boy,Oyinbo and funny names
ReplyDeletePoor child. Although I don't think that's gonna change anything cos his schoolmates in d new school still know his name was Blanket so they'd tease him anyway.
ReplyDeleteIt's about self confidence to me sha...if he is a confident child even if d name na cow dung sef he will bear it with pride.
Whatever makes him happy!
eeya
ReplyDeleteSeen!
ReplyDeleteFine boy no pimples
DeleteAwwww bless him
ReplyDeleteHe's such a cutie
Very thoughtful of him. Some parents are so careless when it comes to such an important issue. I have heard countless ridiculous names parents give their children. I still can't understand what is cool about giving one's children unusual names.
ReplyDeleteSuch a handsome guy. Cool name
ReplyDeleteok o

Micheal Jackson doesn't have any child jare, he's not attracted to girls. Just as Catt Williams said in one of his stand up comedy that no black man would give birth to all pure white kids. He that is pure black......

DeleteAnd what does his parentage have to do with the post? This is probably part of what the poor boy has suffered all his life.
And one dinosaur from Africa will still bend mouth join. Alabosi oshi. Mtsheeeeeew.

ReplyDeleteWhat a coincidence Stella,I was just reading about Michael Jackson today ,even watching his videos, that man is an angel in human form. He was loved by many, his angelic voice is incomparable, a shy man. So many allegations against him lead to his death. I shed tears watching his documentaries. love you Michael ,continue to rest in peace
ReplyDeleteAlways I sense such sadness around him.
ReplyDeleteKeep resting Michael. Forever loved.
Blanket. It makes sense now .. ASO IBORA very meaningful
