Being a mom isn’t throwing Nelly Furtado off.
The “Promiscuous” singer recently gave insight into life with her three kids—20-year-old daughter Nevis Gahunia, whom she shares with ex Jasper Gahunia, as well as her 6-year-old daughter and 5-year-old son with ex Hodgy—and how her old hits first made it to their ears.
“I would say when my music first started trending on TikTok, my oldest daughter was only 16 or 17,” Nelly explained in an exclusive interview with E! News. “At the time, I was quite unfamiliar with it ‘cause I was home with the babies and stuff.”
Eventually, Nelly’s oldest daughter helped her get her own social media account off the ground. As the 45-year-old noted, “She taught me how to make my first TikTok.” (For more Nelly, tune into E! News tomorrow, Aug. 7, at 11 p.m.)
And since the social media app helped expose music to younger audiences—beyond just her own kids—Nelly even enlisted her 20-year-old’s assistance when curating her upcoming album 7, which hits stands Sept. 20.
