In a recent video, legendary singer and American Idol judge Lionel Richie expressed his delight at the birth of his daughter Sofia Richie Grainge’s newborn girl.
While the video was heartwarming, it created a surge of suspicion online, with viewers commenting on Lionel’s dramatically different appearance and speculating if he had done cosmetic procedures.
In the film, the ‘All Night Long (All Night)’ singer expressed his excitement over his newborn grandchild, fondly referring to her as a “diva.”
Lionel, who has long expressed his passion for becoming a grandfather, stated in the video, “My baby is having a baby, and I’m so thrilled for Elliot and Sofia. They are just over the moon.”
Lionel has previously expressed his emotions about grandparenthood, telling ET Online: “Being a grandfather is an exciting adventure for me, but I’m not ready to be called grandpa. I’m Pop-pop. We’re not going with ‘grandpa,’ that’s a bit much. Pop-pop is the name we’ve settled on.”
