Lady Ais Hilary Scott i can’t believe how talented her daughters are when it comes to music.
“All three of my girls are musically gifted,” Scott, 38, exclusively said Us Weekly when he celebrates his new holiday song “Hard waiting for Christmas” featuring her 11-year-old daughter, Iselle Kay. “It’s interesting how everyone expresses it differently.”
While her twins Betsy and Emory might just be six year oldthey already show signs of musical ability.
“Emory will get tunes in his head and ask me, ‘Can we go around the corner and record this melodic moment?’ I want to record it so I can remember it,” Scott recalled to us. “Betsy likes to dance. … They like a lot of different sounding music, too.”
Musicians and singers are used to basking in the glow of fame, but sometimes they share the limelight with their children. When superstars like Beyoncé, Pink and Kelly Clarkson hit the road, they’ve been known to bring their kids with them. Beyoncé’s daughter Blue Ivy, 12, joined her mom on stage at (…)
While Betsy loves everyone from Descendants soundtrack to Stevie Nicks‘ Edge of Seventeen, Emory loves when her mom plays Imagine Dragons on the car ride to school.
As the oldest child, Eisele has had more opportunities to tour with Scott and Lady A over the years. This helped prepare her for the opportunity to perform “Hard to Wait for Christmas” at the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville for Opry Country Christmas on December 5.
“She’s in her musical theater era right now,” Scott said before the special performance. “We are listening Hamilton soundtrack several times a week. We’re going to see him in New York. This is an early Christmas present for you this year.”
This holiday season, Scott and Eisel hope to make the season bright with a special holiday song. Titled “Hard to Wait for Christmas,” the song aims to ignite the Christmas spirit for all ages and remember the many things that make the holiday season so special.
“We hope that this song just allows for moments — even if it’s just the 3 and a half minutes that they played this song — when families can smile and laugh and be playful together,” Scott shared. “If I had a Christmas wish, this would be it. When that song comes on, I hope, whoever you’re with, you’re all giggling and having fun and it’s catchy in a season that can be very difficult at times.”
Tons of celebrity kids have followed in their musical parents’ footsteps over the years, launching their own pop careers — and racking up awards in the process. Miley Cyrus, whose father Billy Ray Cyrus is a country superstar, is one of the most notable examples of a famous child who followed her parents into show business. (…)
As Scott continues to embrace the positive response to the song, she remains grateful for the support to her husband, Chris Tyrrell.
She also keeps her faith in her family’s “compass” as they navigate the highs and lows of life throughout the year.
“We wake up on Christmas morning and the first thing we do is read Luke 2,” Scott shared. “Of all the gifts we receive for our family, the greatest gift was the miracle that was born on Christmas Day. We just always pause and make sure that’s where we start every day and really it’s in the spirit of love and light in the world and hope that what we instill in our children is to be that light for others.
