Blanket Jackson is no more. Michael Jackson's youngest son, recently decided to start going by another name and now, Breaking Celebrity News can reveal that the decision came after years of painful bullying.

Born Michael Jackson Jr., the 13-year-old, who is just completing 7th grade at The Buckley School in Sherman Oaks, Calif., "changed his name informally from Blanket to Bigi before entering Buckley because he hated getting bullied  and made fun of because his name was Blanket," an insider tells Breaking Celebrity News.
