In today’s climate, where we’re watching the president of the United States beef with his former reality show co-star in name-calling rhetoric on Twitter, it’s refreshing to bring some pleasant news to y’all for a change. That would be the news about the kids of NBA great, Scottie Pippen, and music icon, Stevie Wonder, among others. Apparently, their kids are about rack up major dollars with their current gigs and their parents are incredibly proud.

Pippen’s Daughter ‘s About To Come Up!

Nine year old Sophia Pippen is a new contestant for ABC’s upcoming kid competition series, “Dancing With The Stars Juniors.” Sophia’s parents, Scottie and his wife, Larsa Pippen, have just signed the paperwork to let their little princess get her two-step on. Word on the Old School curb is that their baby will be bringing in over $50,000.00! That’s a helluva payday for 9 years old, that’s for sure. Here’s what was just reported:

Via TMZ: Sophia Pippen has already signed her contract to compete against stars like Honey Boo Boo and Miles Brown from “Black-ish” — and if she wins the whole thing, she takes home $130,000!! …Pippen will get $50k just for showing up — and she gets more cash the further she advances in the competition.

– $5,000 per episode for episodes 2 & 3.

– $7,500 per episode for episodes 4 & 5.

– $10,000 per episode for episodes 6 & 7.

– $15,000 for episode 8.

– $20,000 for the finale.

Stevie’s Son Will Be Dancing With The Stars Too

As we recently reported, 13 year old Mandla Morris- Stevie Wonder’s and his ex-wife, Kai Millard Morris son- will also be starring in the new season of “Dancing With The Stars Juniors.” Although it’s unclear exactly how many zeros Mandla will be bringing in, here’s what we know thus far…

The other day, Stevie showed up to Mandla’s “DWTSJ” rehearsal. Stevie, being the very hands-on proud papa that he’s been to all of 9 his kids, was right there by his son’s side for the show’s rehearsals and that’s where all of the ruckus and mayhem started:

Via The Blast– We’re told everyone at the dance studio in West Hollywood went nuts when Stevie arrived, and he spent some time with fans in the parking lot taking photos before heading inside where the top-secret action was going down.

Once it was time for Mandla to man-up and show off his dancing skills, he was up for the challenge for their first practice. His musical genius pops thought it’d be a cool idea to drop by rehearsal and soak it in for a lil’ bit. As to be expected, the unsuspecting lookers-on were shocked as hell to see Mandla’s daddy stroll up to his rehearsal.

They then proceeded to do what most folks do in the presence of an OG icon, like Stevie- they whipped out their phones for selfies and video, when all Stevie probably wanted, was to hear whether or not his son’s two step game was on point. At any rate, Stevie was graceful as always and politely smiled for the cameras. His son is accustomed to watching fans’ reactions to his dad, so he took it all in stride too. And besides, when there’s a $50,000.00+ DWTSJ payday for the top competitor at stake, pretty sure Mandla was too busy keeping his eye on THAT prize, as opposed to having time to worry about his daddy’s fans.
