That Michael Jackson Balcony Incident
This was likely the first of many blunders that led to Michael Jackson's ultimate undoing. He dangled his baby, named Blanket, over a balcony in 2002 right in front of paparazzi who shouted at him to stop. He cheerfully showed the baby off for the cameras without realizing just how dangerous the situation could have been.
A Troubled Childhood
Apparently, after the documentary "Leaving Neverland" aired in 2019, the aforementioned "Blanket," whose real name is Prince Michael Jackson II, went mute. The doc shed light on some pretty horrid child sexual abuse allegations against Jackson, and the teen has been struggling to deal with the fallout. Blanket now prefers to be called Biji, and his godfather Mark Lester says everyone is worried about his mental health.
