Michael Jackson's children Paris, Prince and Blanket make rare red carpet appearance

Michael Jackson ’s children Paris, Prince and Blanket made a rare appearance together last night.

The trio walked the red carpet at the opening night of MJ: The Musical at the Neil Simon Theatre in New York.

Model and singer Paris stole the show in a long patterned red dress that showed off her chest tattoos and made her piercing blue eyes pop.

The 23-year-old looked stunning with her bleached blonde hair tousled down by her shoulders.

She completed her look with a double nose ring, boho bracelets and a pair of burgundy suede boots.

Paris was accompanied by brothers Prince, 24, and Blanket, 19, who also dressed up in smart suits.

The eagerly anticipated musical tells the story of Michael Jackson as he prepares to embark on his iconic Dangerous world tour.

One of his highest earning shows, he made a whopping $140 million from 69 tour dates between 1992 to 1993.

Michael will be portrayed in the new musical by Broadway newcomer Myles Frost.

The show features over 25 of the singer’s biggest hits and is directed and choreographed by Tony Award winner Christopher Wheeldon.

Tragically Michael died on June 25, 2009 at the age of 50 from a fatal overdose of the anaesthetic drug Propofol.

At the time of his death he had been rehearsing for his sold-out comeback tour, This Is It, a series of performances at London’s O2 Arena.

The Thriller star was later revealed to have an addiction to painkillers which spanned back decades, and he is said to have referred to the drugs as “milk”.

His personal physician Dr Conrad Murray, who administered the fatal dose, was later convicted of causing Michael’s death.

In November 2011, the doctor was sentenced to four years in jail after being found guilty of involuntary manslaughter.

He served two years and was released from prison in 2013, but his doctors licence was suspended in the US where he practised medicine and previously worked as a cardiologist.

Michael left behind three children – Prince and Paris who he shares with ex-wife Debbie Rowe, who he was married to from 1996 to 1999.

Youngest son Blanket was born via surrogate and whose biological mother is believed to be a Mexican nurse named Helena.
