Kaavia James Union Wade Puts On Impromptu Concert For Dad Dwyane Wade’s 42nd Birthday
During a recent beach vacation in Miami to celebrate Dwyane Wade’s 42nd birthday on January 17th, his youngest daughter Kaavia James Union Wade, 5, surprised her father with an impromptu concert performance.
As documented on Kaavia’s Instagram page, the young performer took center stage to jam out to hits like Silentó’s “Watch Me (Whip / Nae Nae)” and Tyla’s “Water.”
Kaavia slayed the audience, which included her parents Gabrielle Union and Dwyane Wade, with her enthusiastic dance moves and facial expressions. “The headliner and the main event,” read the caption on the Instagram video.
Fans in the comments were blown away by her natural star power and stage presence at such a young age.
Fans Dub Kaavia The “Next Generation Superstar”
Commenters on the Instagram video focused on Kaavia’s apparent destiny for superstardom.
“Conversations are going around about who’s going to be the next generation superstar from North West, Blu Ivy, Mariah and Nick Cannon’s daughter, and JLo’s daughter. I’m putting my money on Kaav!” wrote one fan.
Others chimed in predicting Kaavia’s path to athletic greatness like her father:
“She’s going to be an athlete.”
Some simply enjoyed her confident attitude:
“She wakes up every day and turns her swag on.”
The overall sentiment was one of support and appreciation for her performance:
“Yes! Give the people what they came for.”
Proud Parents Encourage Kaavia To Stay True To Herself
Gabrielle Union has embraced her daughter’s fierce independence and crowned her with the nickname “Shady Baby.” She hopes Kaavia maintains her willingness to buck expectations:
“She’s really her own person. She’s not here for our shenanigans.”
Union wants her daughter to only smile and perform “when she feels like it” rather than bowing to pressure.
The family clearly adores Kaavia’s fierce personality. Her birthday serenade to dad Dwyane Wade showed her sweeter side, and he was moved to give her a big hug in thanks.
By nurturing both aspects of Kaavia’s blossoming character, Gabrielle Union and Dwyane Wade appear to be raising the next generation’s trailblazer.
