At the 2026 American Music Awards, Teyana Taylor—who attended the award show with her kids Junie and Rue—had her oldest daughter give her honest review of the singer’s look in an exclusive interview.
Teyana Taylor’s Daughter Junie Rates Her Mom’s Breathtaking Look
Teyana Taylor‘s daughter Iman “Junie” Shumpert is going to love her mom’s fashion—no matter the occasion.
As the 10-year-old—who attended the award show at the MGM Grand Garden Arena alongside her mom and sister Rue Rose Shumpert, 5—noted of the actress’ purple off-the-shoulder full-length gown, the ensemble was worthy of a perfect score.
Indeed, when Teyana asked her oldest daughter if her look was a “ten out of ten,” Junie had a simple but perfect response.
“Girl, it was more than a ten out of ten,” Junie told her mom while chatting in an exclusive interview with E! News. “Clock it.”
And as for whether the One Battle After Another actress thinks her kids will follow in her footsteps, especially style wise?
“Oh absolutely, you already see,” she told E!. “I mean, these are my two biggest fashion critics. They keep me in check. They keep the outfits tea, as they would say. You know, I’m really excited to always make them proud. I love when they love my outfits.”
But that should come as no surprise as Teyana—who shares her daughters with ex Iman Shumpert—always has her kids in mind, even when it comes down to her fashion choices.
In fact, for the 2026 Oscars, the “Gonna Love Me” singer wore an extra special red carpet look which had a sweet nod to her daughters: A black Chanel gown that included both Junie and Rue’s names embroidered in cursive alongside a heart.

And of course, this wouldn’t be the first time the pair have joined her on a red carpet. Indeed, Teyana’s youngest daughter Rue joined her mom on the red carpet at the Actor Awards in March, with the All’s Fair actress jokingly calling the 5-year-old a “very expensive stylist.”
As for Rue, she was simply very happy to be an extraordinary plus one.
“I wanted to say,” Rue told E! News at the time, “this is such an honor for me being here, and I wanted to thank you guys for my mom and this wonderful day, and all of y’all outfits look very good.”
