Michael Jackson's son, BG, formerly known as Blanket, made a rare appearance on Tuesday to honor his father and what would have been the King of Pop's 65th birthday.

Stepping Out to Honor a Legend

BG, who is now 21, stepped out in Las Vegas alongside his 26-year-old brother Prince where they greeted fans inside the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino.

Celebrating Through Artistry

Afterward, MJ's loved ones were scheduled to enjoy a special performance from the cast of Cirque du Soleil residency Michael Jackson won, which marks his 10th anniversary this summer. Tuesday isn't the first time the Jackson kids attended the show to honor their father's legacy. In August of 2018, Paris and Prince attended the Michael Jackson Diamond Birthday celebration for his 60th birthday and accepted the Elizabeth Taylor Legacy Award on his behalf for his humanitarian work with the Elizabeth Taylor AIDS Foundation.

A Glimpse into their Upbringing

In 2007, one of Michael's former bodyguards described the music legend's three children to people as well-mannered, well-behaved kids, adding, "they are really level-headed." Michael's publicist continued they were Michael's first priority, and at his funeral in 2009, a then 11-year-old Paris called him the best father you could ever imagine.

The appearance of Blanket Jackson, now known as BG, alongside his brother Prince, to honor their late father's 65th birthday, marks a heartwarming moment for fans and highlights the enduring legacy of the King of Pop.
