Dannielynn Birkhead Absolutely Stuns In A Fashion Ode To Janet Jackson
Dannielynn Birkhead is turning heads — but in an iconic way. ICYMI, Dannielynn is the only daughter of late model Anna Nicole Smith. According to Hollywood Life, Smith welcomed Dannielynn in 2004, with the identity of the baby's father causing some confusion. However, celebrity photographer Larry Birkhead, with whom Smith apparently had a secret romance, was later confirmed to be Dannielynn's father.
Larry first worked as a photographer for Smith before the pair eventually started a relationship. Still, it was not a relationship made known to the world. "No one ever knew one time that I was her boyfriend," Larry told ABC's "20/20" in 2017. "The whole time we dated, if you look at all the video, I'm in the back carrying my camera bag ... she didn't want me in the spotlight." With her own fair share of troubles, Smith would later end her relationship with Larry, though she was already actually pregnant at the time.
However, despite Smith's tragic life, Larry continues to help his daughter keep her mom's legacy alive. "We visit, and I tell Dannielynn stories about her mom," Larry told Entertainment Tonight in 2015. "My goal was always to keep Daniel (Smith's late son) and Anna in her mind and let her know who they were without overdoing it." But I f you are wondering what Dannielynn's life is like these days, just know that, when she isn't honoring her legendary mom, she's busy paying tribute to other iconic figures, much like she did at the Kentucky Derby.
Dannielynn Birkhead's Janet Jackson-inspired outfit turned heads
Per People, Dannielynn Birkhead showed up to the Kentucky Derby Eve Gala on May 6 wearing an outfit pop icon Janet Jackson previously wore in the early aughts. Proving that she has inherited her mother's good looks, Dannielynn stunned in black, oversized pants, a matching black jacket worn over a white shirt, and an oversized belt. She topped off the ensemble with a black newsboy cap and a charming smile.
On their joint Instagram account, Dannielynn and her dad Larry Birkhead were pictured posing alongside each other right before heading to the event. Like his daughter, Larry looked every bit as dashing man in a black tuxedo paired with a polka dot tie. Clearly, this father-daughter duo knows how to steal the show — or, to be more specific, this show.
