The last time Prince, Paris and Bigi (formerly known as “blanket”) appeared together on a red carpet, they were as tall as three apples. It was 12 years ago, and they were accompanied by their aunt Latoya Jackson. Now aged 27, 25 and 22 respectively, they don't need anyone to hold their hands in front of the photographers' flashes. But it was a very specific reason that brought the Jackson siblings together in London on March 27. They came to attend the premiere of
MJ: The Musical
, a musical comedy which recounts the preparations for the
Dangerous
tour of their father, Michael Jackson, who died in 2009.

For the occasion, Paris and her brothers had dressed to the nines. Well... especially Paris. The young woman was dressed in a long rust-colored dress, with bare shoulders and long sleeves. A monochrome outfit matched with her heeled sandals, whose romantic look contrasted with her numerous tattoos. His brothers had dressed in sober black suits.
Lives at the antipodes
If her brothers are rather discreet and absent from the public scene, Paris has made her place among the celebrities of this world. Singer, actress and model, she is no longer just the daughter of the King of Pop. Last March, she was at Paris Fashion Week to meet Ringo Starr and Paul McCartney during the Stella McCartney fashion show.
Prince, the eldest of the siblings, leads a life far from the glitterati alongside his girlfriend, Molly Schirmang, met on the benches of Loyola Marymount University in California, from which they graduated in 2019. Prince, however, makes some red carpet appearances. In June 2022, he took to the Tony Award stage to present the musical
MJ: The Musical.
He was also accompanied by his sister Paris.
Bigi, meanwhile, the baby that Michael Jackson held up to the crowd through his window, is currently struggling with his grandmother, Katherine Jackson. According to
TMZ
, the young man would like to prevent his grandmother from using the singer's inheritance to pay her legal fees. Born to a surrogate mother, Prince Michael, his real first name, was raised by his father, then by his grandmother, Katherine Jackson, who became his legal guardian, as well as that of his two eldest children. Due to his grandmother's advanced age and the fact that his brother and sister left the family nest as adults, Bigi was placed under the guardianship of his older cousin, TJ Jackson, at the end of his teenage years.
