Bigi, Michael Jackson’s Youngest Son Turns 22 On Wednesday

Michael Jackson‘s youngest son, Bigi, turned 22 on Wednesday, and his older brother, Prince Jackson, extended wishes to him.

Prince used Instagram Story and shared a throwback pic of Bigi. The lovely photo showed a cheerful baby Bigi clothed in a white shirt and denim.

The co-founder of the HEAL Los Angeles Foundation also tweeted a photo from earlier in February, when the young director showed his short film ‘Rochelles’ at the Santa Monica Film Festival and won best drama.

Bigi posed with a group and proudly displayed his award in the shot, while Prince left a touching remark.

“Bro is killing it! Chasing his dreams and winning awards, HBD yo,” he wrote.

While Jackson’s children with ex-wife Debbie Rowe, Prince and 25-year-old Paris, have become more open about their careers in recent years, Bigi (whom the late music superstar received via surrogate) remains the most private member of the family.
In a rare appearance, Prince and Bigi celebrated their father’s 65th birthday in August of last year.

According to People, the two attended an event at Las Vegas’ Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino, which hosts Cirque du Soleil’s continuing Michael Jackson ONE production.

At the “Blue Sapphire Birthday Celebration,” the brothers held a public Q&A with fans and saw Cirque du Soleil performances, among other festivities honoring the “Thriller” artist.

Days later, a rare family photo of the brothers and other relatives smiling and posing together appeared on The Jacksons’ official Facebook page.

“A special family gathering,” the caption read.

In recent years, Bigi conducted his first on-camera interview. The then-19-year-old appeared on Good Morning Britain in 2021, ahead of the United Nations Climate Change Conference, to encourage world leaders to address global warming.

According to People, during the interview, which was taped at the Jackson home, he also talked about how his Grammy-winning father’s past inspired him.

“There’s a lot of really cool stuff here. There’s a lot of history in this house and the studio here. That’s what he was all about,” he said, before referring to his siblings. “That’s what each of us wants to do — make things that people enjoy but also benefit their lives.”

A biopic on the ‘Billie Jean’ singer is currently in production.
The film, named ‘Michael,’ will be produced by members of his estate and directed by Antoine Fuqua. Michael’s brother Jermaine’s son, Jaafar Jackson, will play the singer.
