New York Post, Sunday, November 15, 2020nypost.comAnd Prince was still finding himself
while also trying to mentor their
younger brother Bigi [formerly known
as Blanket]. About four years ago,
Prince really stood up and grew into
the role that Michael envisioned,
which is being a strong big brother to
both of them.
“He’s Paris’ father figure.”
Bigi, 18, has been slowly coming out
of his shell, the source added.
Like his sister and brother, Bigi is a
product of the ultra-competitive and
elite Buckley School in Sherman Oaks,
Calif., once attended by the likes of
Kim Kardashian and Bret Easton Ellis.
Outside of his studies, he’s focused on
martial arts, enjoys video games and
attending Comic-Con.
Music unites all three Jackson kids.
“The family is music, and Bigi sees
his sister making music, his cousins all
making music, and of course they
know their father’s history and the his-
tory of their aunts and uncles,” the
source said. Family and friends are im-
pressed with the strong will Paris has
demonstrated and hope that Bigi takes
after his big sister.
When asked by The Associated
Press what her late father might think
of her music, Paris demurred.
“I’m not him, so I can’t speak for
him,” she said. “But I hope he would be
happy, and I think he would be stoked
because I’m happy.”
Family members said Paris’ resolve is
like Michael’s.
“Paris learned from Mich-
ael, and the best thing about
this is that she doesn’t give a
f--k what the media thinks of
the record,” the family mem-
ber said. “She stopped caring a
long time ago, and that’s why
you’re no longer writing about
suicide attempts and drama.
She’s changed the narrative.
She’s a Jackson, so she’s
changing the game.”attempts, Paris rallies via music
