Inside Elle King's Relationship With Her Dad Rob Schneider

May 2024 ยท 2 minute read

In her People interview, Elle King noted that although she earned her surprising net worth on her own accord, she did pick up a few essential showbiz skills from her father, Rob Schneider. The singer-songwriter learned how to perform onstage by watching him captivate everyone's attention in a room during Schneider's live gigs. The "Drunk" hitmaker maintained that while both she and her dad are passionate about her singing career, her talent is entirely her own. 

We heard Schneider's singing abilities when King joined him for a duet during his Netflix special, "Asian Momma Mexican Kids." Likewise, Schneider recalled in an Access Hollywood interview how the pandemic hit shortly afterward, and King couldn't play any shows for a while as a result. While she was understandably upset about it, King found a silver lining and texted her dad that she'd be happy if it was her last show ever because she got to share the stage with him.

Speaking to People in 2018, the singer-songwriter gushed, "Honestly, he's probably my biggest supporter." She continued, "Like, every other day I'll get texts in all caps of like, 'Your record's gonna change the world! I can't wait for your fans to hear what you've made! I love you! I'm so proud of you!'" Schneider echoed similar sentiments with Us Weekly. In fact, despite her concerns about being a nepo baby, he couldn't be happier when people first recognize him as her dad.
