From Obama to Karaoke, La La Anthony’s Emotional Birthday Tribute to Kiyan Turning 18 Leaves Fans Nostalgic

Kiyan Anthony just hit a huge milestone—he’s officially 18! The son of NBA legend Carmelo Anthony and actress La La Anthony has been making waves on the basketball court, and his mom couldn’t be prouder. From dominating at the NBPA Top 100 Camp to committing to Syracuse, Kiyan is carving out his legacy. And to celebrate his big day, La La went all out on Instagram, showering him with love.

In just one week, he dropped 25 points against Oak Hill Academy. This led Long Island Lutheran to a huge comeback win. Then, just days later, he put up another 20-piece, helping LuHi take down Brewster. Two big performances, 45 total points, and a whole lot of “y’all better start paying attention” energy. Well, it seems that the young star has just turned 18, and his biggest fan, La La Anthony, wasn’t about to let this moment go unnoticed.

She kicked things off with a sweet message in her IG story: “@kiyananthony is officially 18 yrs old. Happy Birthday to my everything!!!!” But she wasn’t done there. She also shared adorable throwback photos of Kiyan as a kid. One of the standout pics? A shot of him talking with former President Barack Obama, which she captioned, “Epic pic!!!!!! Happy 18th birthday Kiyan.” Talk about a flex!

La La also gave fans a glimpse of their fun relationship, posting a video of her and Kiyan doing car karaoke. She called him her “favorite karaoke partner”. She kept the energy going by sharing clips of Kiyan dancing, hyping him up in the captions, and joking, “This is gonna be us tonight!”. Then, just to prove he’s got even more skills, she posted a video of him rapping Lil Baby’s verse from Drake’s Wants and Needs, proudly writing, “He raps too.”

To wrap up the celebration, she dropped a heartfelt post featuring a collection of photos and videos. Her caption was full of love: “I can’t even believe I just said 18!!!! That is craaazzyyyy how fast time goes by… I’m so proud of the young man you are becoming. Continue to shine in all that you do! I’m always here for you no matter how old you get!! Forever your #1 fan!”

From basketball to music to just being an all-around great kid, Kiyan Anthony is going places. And if La La’s celebration says anything, it’s that she’ll always be his biggest cheerleader.
