Hilary Duff arranged for a singing class over the weekend for a bunch of up and comers. Those attending were her daughter Mae, Mandy Moore’s son. August, Ashley Tisdale’s daughter .upiter, and Meghan Trainor’s son. Riley. Talk about nepotism. Rounding out the band were the Poppys, the daughters of makeup artist Kelsey Deenihan and Food blogger Gaby Dalkin. The whole gang, ranging in age from three to six months, hung out on what was likely a bespoke, hand-dyed baby blanket blessed by nursing high-mountain yaks where they had their first music lesson. ET gave us some more details about the famous playdate.
A band of babies! Hilary Duff is getting her famous mom friends together for a big infant playdate!
Duff took to her Instagram story on Sunday to share some snapshots from a baby singing class, where her own 3-month-old baby, Mae, spent time with some other adorable babies.
Duff’s little one was joined by Mandy Moore’s 5-month-old son, August, as well as Ashley Tisdale’s 3-month-old daughter, Jupiter, and Meghan Trainor’s 5-month-old son Riley.
During the adorable class — which also included food blogger Gaby Dalkin’s 6-month-old daughter and makeup artist Kelsey Deenihan Fisher’s 4-month-old daughter, both of whom are named Poppy — all six babies laid around on blankets and, well, did what babies do: look absolutely adorable.
The ET article referred to it a few times as a “singing class.” I can only hope we get a recording from it. I know babies that age are pretty good at flailing, so it would seem slapping a maraca in their hands and letting go to town would’ve been the way to go but what do I know. The point here is, start ‘em young. These wastrels have been scrounging off their parents for long enough, it’s about time they learned a trade. You know, I am writing that as a joke, but aren’t all those actresses former child stars? Whoops.
I’m sure the “singing class” was just an excuse for the moms to get together and share new mom stories. Mandy, Ashley and Meghan are all first time moms so it was probably nice to get some seasoned mom advice from Hilary. It looks like they had a beautiful day for their get together and the babies maybe met their lifelong friend group. It’s sweet. If they decide to form a band, they have a great foundation. Plus, they recruited a makeup artist and personal chef in the Poppys so really, they’re all set to go.
My goodness, these bebes are adorbs.

Juju’s side eye is my fave.
This is cute. The moms probably enjoyed having moms at their same season to talk to. I loved my babies as babies, but I wouldn’t go back to that stage.
How is this nepotism? It sounds like they are friends. Is there some rule you can only invite people you don’t know to play dates/singing classes?
It was a joke.
This is cute! I went to a mommy-and-me playgroup when my daughter was an infant, and even though we’ve moved and spread out we all still keep in touch on facebook. It’s really sweet to see the kids grow up and celebrate their birthdays all around the same time as each other. At some point one if us will reshare the photo of the babies in a circle on the floor and it’s always a hit lol.
That’s so lovely!! It’s wonderful to keep the friendships alive, especially as there are miles between you!!
This is really cute. I bet it would be hard to join a mom support group and people only see you as a famous person and not a new mom who wants to talk about everything under the sun. Makes sense to me.
“The whole gang, ranging in age from three to six months, hung out on what was likely a bespoke, hand-dyed baby blanket blessed by nursing high-mountain yaks where they had their first music lesson.” HAHAHA made my day!
Really doubt all celeb kids (will) use nepotism or we would only get famous via being a celeb kid. 😉 these are def Gerbery cuties
Hilary and Mandy have been friends for a long time, she attended her wedding a few years ago and she was knitting things for her and her baby
No surprise two most level headed young/ex child stars ended up becoming close.
Also there were a few moms who aren’t famous or known so looks like a good mix. I know they are way richer but most of these are more normal celebs/moms than say a Jlo or Beyoncé. I bet it’s a fun event
