Selah Marley is growing up! Lauryn Hill and Rohan Marley’s daughter celebrated her Sweet 16 last night. And it came complete with a special performance by A$AP Ferg and an appearance from Teyana Taylor and her boyfriend Iman Shumpert. Peep the pics inside….
It’s hard to believe Lauryn Hill and Rohan Marley’s second child Selah Marley is approaching womanhood. Yesterday, Selah celebrated her 16th birthday with a Sweet 16 bash filled with her family and close friends at the Crosby Street Hotel in SoHo. And for her coming of age celebration, she was gifted with a special performance by rapper A$AP Ferg.
Overjoyed, Selah posted to Instagram, "greatest night of my life @asapferg"
The young model and singer was absolutely gorgeous (spitting image of her mother) in a black sparkly gown accessorized with a blinged out lion head necklace.
Her father Rohan (son of Bob Marley) took to Twitter gushing over his baby girl's special night. He tweeted:
Thanks to Mother ' she really knows how to put a party together 'very special night ' Eden brought some teary eyes @SelahLMarley#sweet16
