Welcome to Blanket Jackson Online, the first and unofficial support site for Prince Michael Jackson, II, aka Blanket. [1]

And the little imp grinning out from beneath a hoodie on the far left, despite the best efforts of his nanny to keep him hidden, is thought to be their five-yearold brother Prince Michael II - known as Blanket. [2]

When I was 9 I developed a bedwetting problem that would not subside, and the housekeepers nicknamed me Wet Blanket, and then, when the special anti-bedwetting system was installed, Rubber Blanket. [3]

*NEW PHOTOS* of Michael Jackson’s children Prince, Paris and Blanket Jackson out in LA with cousins. [4]

Had it not been for 49-year-old Jackson attempting another “incognito” outfit as the family stepped out in Las Vegas, they might have gone unnoticed. [2]

“Prince Michael and Paris know that helping others was as important to their daddy as music. [1]

I’ve seen a few posts about Blanket so I thought I’d post these pictures of him that were taken last year at an orphanage in Japan. [5]

Friends insist he is a good father, despite dangling Blanket over the balcony of his Berlin hotel five years ago to gasps from the crowd below. [...] The handsome fellow following her in a Mickey Mouse cap is ten-year-old Prince Michael. [...] The group had been attending ventriloquist Ronn Lucas’s show at the Luxor Hotel in the gambling mecca. [...] The blue-eyed blonde sauntering along on the left of the main picture, clad in white jacket and jeans, is apparently his daughter Paris Katherine, nine. [2]

All the photos and media belong to their respective owner. [1]

The two elder children do bear some resemblance to their mother Debbie Rowe, who Jackson married in 1996. [2]

My father Michael wanted to protect us, to give us inauspicious, normal lives free of the media spotlight. [3]

No clue what’s going on with the masquerade-ball masks on the kids, since you can kind of still recognize them anyway, but we like the pairing of the masks with their Harry Potter-esque private-school uniforms. [6]

Andrea Bocelli was born in 1958, in Lajatico, rural Tuscany, Italy. [1]

The album “Romanza” is releases in the spring. [2]

Since his debut album Il mare calmo della sera, released in 1994, he has recorded over 22 pop and classical albums, including seven operas, selling over 70 million copies woldwide. [...] In September he made his opera debut as Macduff in Verdi’s Macbeth at the Teatro Verdi in Pisa. [...] In 1992, Italian rock star Zucchero held auditions for tenors to make a demo tape with him of the song Miserere from his album of the same name, to send to Italian tenor Luciano Pavarotti. [3]

Andrea’s fourth full length opera recording… Werther. [4]

In Zucchero’s European concert tour in 1993, it was Bocelli who accompanied him to sing the duet and he was also given solo sets in the concerts, singing “Nessun Dorma ” from Puccini’s Turandot. [3]

In the spring, the Italian rock star Zucchero searches for a tenor to make a demo of “Miserere,” a song that he composed in a collaboration with U2’s Bono. [2]

Opera, however, represents only one side of his musical persona. [1]

In May he toured with Italian pop singer Gerardina Trovato. [3]

You are like a bridge… Grazie Larry King,Twitter, Red Cross, etc. [5]

Pagliacci contains one of opera’s most popular and famous arias, “Vesti la giubba” in which the jealous husband laments, “Ridi, Pagliaccio! [4]

Zucchero hopes to convince Luciano Pavarotti to perform the song as a duet with him, however, in the meantime he records the duet with Bocelli, who “sings with his soul.” [...] In the same month he becomes the first vocalist to hold the top three places on the US classical charts: With his albums “Sacred Arias”, “Aria - The Opera Album” and “Viaggio Italiano”. [2]

Since being discovered by Zucchero Fornaciari in 1992, Andrea Bocelli has quickly established himself as one of the world’s most exciting tenor voices. [6]

According to the ‘King of Pop’s’ sister, La Toya Jackson, 11-year-old Paris Michael has found a positive way to keep her father’s memory close. [1]

On this 2005 shopping trip in London, the Jackson children had veils to hide their faces from the media. [2]

For most of their young lives, Prince, Paris and Prince Michael II’s father, late pop star Michael Jackson, went to great lengths to shield their faces from the prying eyes of the press. [3]

A source tells E! News exclusively that Grammy Awards producers have been making a last-minute effort to incorporate in some capacity Michael Jackson ’s children-Prince Michael, Paris and Blanket-into Sunday night’s tribute to their late father. [4]

Katherine Jackson was granted permanent custody of Prince Michael, Paris and Prince Michael II (aka Blanket) in August. [5]

In the past few months, Michael Jackson ’s three children have been enjoying the everyday activities of ordinary kids their age. [...] Paris Jackson (second from l.) brought tears to viewers around the world when she spoke of her father at the funeral in July, saying: ‘I love him so much.’ [2]

NEW YORK, Dec. 6 (UPI) — U.S. singer Jermaine Jackson said the children of his late brother Michael will not appear on “The Jacksons: A Family Dynasty” reality TV show. [6]

… the singer’s death took a tougher toll on his sons, Prince Michael, 12, and Prince Michael II, aka ‘Blanket,’ 7. [1]

Perhaps the most bizarre - and alarming - display of Michael Jackson’s parenting came when he dangled the infant Blanket from a hotel balcony in 2002. [2]

Paris and Prince Jackson expected to accept Lifetime Achievement Award for their father at Special Merit Awards ceremony Saturday. [8]

All three of Michael Jackson’s kids are in therapy, sister La Toya Jackson has revealed. [7]

Bon Jovi is hard rock band from New Jersey. [1]

Jon Bon Jovi has been kicking back in New York City while gearing up for the band’s upcoming tour. [2]

John Francis Bongiovi, Jr., better known as Jon Bon Jovi, was born in Perth, NJ on March 2, 1962 making him 47 years old. [3]

Jon Bon Jovi (born John Francis Bongiovi, Jr. March 2, 1962) is an American musician, songwriter and actor, best known as the lead singer and founder of band Bon Jovi. [4]

But we’re in town, going out to Jersey more on the weekend kind of holidays that kind of thing. [2]

The band was formed in 1983 with its original members: Jon Bon Jovi, Richie Sambora, David Bryan, Alec John Such and Tico Torres. [1]

With the help of their new manager Doc McGhee, the band’s debut album, Bon Jovi, was released on January 21, 1984. [4]

The band has sold over 100 million albums worldwide. [1]

Jon Bon Jovi was born John Francis Bongiovi, Jr. in Perth Amboy, New Jersey, the son of two former Marines, hairdresser John Francis Bongiovi, Sr. and one-time Playboy bunny Carol Sharkey. [4]

The city life will soon end for the frontman — at least temporarily — when Bon Jovi kicks off its tour February 11th in Honolulu. [...] The group will be out behind their new album, The Circle, and the hit single, “We Weren’t Born To Follow.” [2]

Jon Bon Jovi (47) was born March 2, 1962, in Perth Amboy, New Jersey. [3]

During their 1986-1987 tour, Jon’s attempt to give it his all during live shows (plus the tour’s exhausting schedule) greatly strained his vocal cords. [...] Produced by Bob Rock, the album signified an ending to their early metal roots in previous albums and introduced a more “rock n roll”-driven groove to the album. [...] Their sixth studio album These Days was released in June 1995 to the most critical acclaim that the band had ever received. [4]
