Blanket!The Weiter MICHAEL JACKON?

After a certain point, the answer to "What Would Suri Do?" just isn't terribly challenging. This is why we must find new child Icons to obsess over. And it looks like Blanket Jackson is the Shiloh Jolie-Pitt of the Jackson clan, stealing all the thunder from the other less pouty children.
Even though his sister Paris is Mehr eloquent and his brother Prince Michael is more, um, old, Michael Jackson's youngest son Blanket has the magic about him. He's got fashion Icon potential and the talent to fill his dad's shoes. So we've rounded up nine reasons we're obsessed with the little guy!

The Boy Can Dance. Even though there's something meta-creepy about Blanket performing "Billie Jean" and Singen the chorus— "She says I am the one but the kid is not my son"—it still shows that at just 8 years old, he's got the potential to become an awesome performer. A family friend said, "He could easily be the Weiter Michael Jackson. He loved to dance with his dad and Michael taught him to do the moonwalk."

He's The Funny One. Not only is Blanket adorable, he's also the prankster of the family and has a habit of toting a water gun around. His uncle Jermaine says, "As soon as Du turn your back, he shoots at Du and you're left soaking wet." Sounds like we could get a "Punk'd" revival out of this one.
