The Jackson 2.

Michael Jackson’s two sons — Prince Jackson, 26, and Blanket “Bigi” Jackson, 21 — stepped out in Las Vegas on what would have been their late father’s 65th birthday.

Photographers snapped the duo interacting with guests at Sin City’s Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino on Tuesday following a Michael Jackson ONE by Cirque du Soleil showing.

Prince wore a gray T-shirt, blue jeans, sneakers, a baseball cap, and a crossbody bag for the outing.

He also sported a scruffy look with fairly full facial hair.

The actor appeared animated as he flashed a toothy grin and leaned in to take photos with equally enthused fans, one of whom even gifted him a drawing of the King of Pop.

Clearly touched by the gesture, Prince made sure to give the woman a big hug.

Meanwhile, Blanket — who rarely makes public appearances — opted for a short-sleeved black button-down with matching pants and shoes.

His dark, shoulder-length hair was parted down the middle, and he debuted a light mustache and beard.

Unlike his older brother, the youngest of the Jackson brood — who was just a baby when Michael infamously dangled him over a balcony in Berlin — smiled subtly and kept his hands to himself as he posed for pictures and signed autographs.

The pair’s sister, Paris Jackson, is busy touring with rock band Incubus.

In fact, the 25-year-old musician is gearing up to perform at the Amphitheater at Las Colonias Park in Grand Junction, Colo., later tonight.

According to her Instagram Story, she spent her “day off in Denver” on Monday at the “biggest [indoor rock] climbing gym in the country.”

The trio’s 13-time Grammy-winning dad died in June 2009 of cardiac arrest brought on by an accidental drug overdose.

He was 50 years old.

Michael shared Prince and Paris with his ex-wife Debbie Rowe, to whom he was married from November 1996 to April 2000.

The singer admitted in the 2003 documentary “Living with Michael Jackson” that he used a surrogate to conceive Blanket.

The woman’s identity is not known.

Shortly before his marriage to Rowe, 64, Michael was wed to Lisa Marie Presley — the only child of the late King of Rock ‘n’ Roll Elvis Presley — who died in January after going into cardiac arrest due to a “small bowel obstruction” said to be caused by adhesions that developed after bariatric surgery.

Though their union only lasted from May 1994 to August 1996, Michael’s estate had nothing but nice things to say following Lisa Marie’s sudden passing at the age of 54.

“Michael cherished the special bond they enjoyed and was comforted by Lisa Marie’s generous love, concern and care during their times together,” the statement read.

“Our hearts are with Lisa Marie’s children, Riley, Harper and Finley, and her mother, Priscilla, in this difficult time.”
