Scottie Pippen and Larsa’s Daughter, Sophia, Builds Brand Collaborations While Receiving Monthly Allowance from Her Mom
Sophia gravitated to fashion and modelling at a young age
Sophia Pippen, daughter of Scottie and Larsa, is starting to make a name for herself in the world of fashion and modelling.
Still just 15, Sophia showed she has what it takes by making an appearance at New York City’s Kids Fashion Week just last year.
She’s now starting to make even bigger inroads into the industry, sharing a carousel Instagram post from her latest photoshoot.
Joined by American singer Justice, Sophia can be seen striking a pose or two in the photos, while also captioning the post with a cryptic message.
“BTS #Unguarded coming soon,” she wrote alongside shushing emojis.
We don’t know all the details of the venture just yet, but the post certainly suggests that something exciting is on the horizon.Sophia already has brand deals with Oscar de la Renta. Despite this, mom Larsa still gives her teen daughter a monthly allowance of $2,500.
While the move may have surprised many, Larsa defended the move while praising her daughter’s work at such a young age.
Success in the family
While Sophia’s modelling career continues to grow, Scotty Pippen Jr’s career in the NBA is also beginning to take flight.
The 24-year-old saw his two-way contract with the Memphis Grizzlies converted into a standard four-year contract earlier this season, and with Ja Morant sidelined with injury, Pippen Jr. is making the most of his opportunity in the starting lineup.
On Saturday he had his best game to date, and it just so happened to take place in the arena his dad helped make famous while playing for the Chicago Bulls, the United Center.
In a 142-131 win over the Bulls on Saturday, Pippen Jr. finished with a career-high 30 points and 10 assists.
“Yeah, definitely a special place to play, you know. I see my dad’s name up here. I’ve dreamed of this moment, it’s a dream come true to finally be able to play here,” Scotty said after the game.
The performance comes weeks after Pippen Jr. recorded his first career triple-double against the Washington Wizards, making him and his father the first father-son duo in league history to achieve the mark.
Scotty’s performance also drew praise from mom Larsa, who shared a picture celebrating her son’s performance with the caption: “Congrats, my love.”
