Finding the perfect date to an event can be difficult, but these celebrities found the best possible plus ones to their black tie functions — their kids.
The 2025 Grammys saw several stars accompanied by their children, but they certainly didn’t start this trend. Below are some of the proud parents who have showed off their families on the red carpet. Some of those celebrity kids have even gone on to become stars in their own right.
Beyonce and Jay-Z

Queen Bey and Jay-Z brought their eldest daughter, Blue Ivy Carter, to the Grammys in 2025, and the Mufasa actress was by her mom’s side when she finally won the coveted Album of the Year award. Blue, born 2012, was true to her name in a cobalt-colored gown.
Shakira
Shakira, who won the Grammy for Best Latin Pop Album at the Grammys, was accompanied by her two sons, Milan and Sasha, who she shares with ex Gerard Pique. Milan, born 2013, and Sasha, born 2015, wore matching silver suits.
Alicia Keys

The “If I Ain’t Got You” singer brought her son Genesis, born 2014, as her date to the Grammys, and the proud mom snapped a picture with Shakira and her two boys as well.
Angelina Jolie

As a mom of six, Angelina Jolie has made a habit of bringing her kids to the red carpet with her, and many of them have appeared in movies with her too. She brought her son, Knox, to the Governors Awards on November 17, 2024, and brought daughter Zahara to the 2025 Golden Globes.
Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson

The Rock brought his daughter, Simone Johnson, to the Golden Globes with him in January 2025. Simone, born 2001, has followed in her father’s footsteps and become a performer in the WWE.
Nicole Kidman

The Babygirl actress brought her daughter, Sunday Rose Urban, to a Golden Globes pre-party on January 4, 2025. Sunday and her sister Faith, both of whom Kidman shares with husband Keith Urban, made their red carpet debuts in April 2024, when they accompanied her mom to the AFI Life Achievement Award Gala thrown in her honor.
Reese Witherspoon

The Morning Show actress frequently brings her children with ex Ryan Phillippe, Ava and Deacon, to join her at Hollywood events. Deacon, born 2003, and Ava, born 1999, both joined their mother at the premiere of Blink Twice in 2024, though only Deacon walked the red carpet for that event.
Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love

The late grunge couple famously brought their baby daughter, Frances Bean Cobain, to the MTV VMAs in 1993.
Carrie Fisher

The Star Wars actress brought her daughter, Billie Lourde, to the premiere of Star Wars: The Force Awakens in 2015, and Billie looked delighted to be her mom’s date.
Lenny Kravitz

Before Zoe Kravitz’s acting and directing chops began getting her invites to red carpet events, the Blink Twice star accompanied her dad, Lenny Kravitz, to the 2000 Grammy Awards.
