Robert De Niro, the legendary actor and two-time Oscar winner, revealed in a recent interview with Andy Cohen on Sirius XM’s Radio Andy that his two-year-old daughter Gia has a particular fondness for the YouTube show “Ms. Rachel.” De Niro shared that his daughter has developed a discerning taste in TV shows, with “Ms. Rachel,” “The Wiggles,” and “Blippi” being among her favorites.
De Niro admitted that even he starts his mornings watching “Ms. Rachel” with his daughter, stating, “That’s what I did this morning. ‘Ms. Rachel,’ ‘The Wiggles,’ ‘Blippi.’ ‘The Wiggles’ are sort of cheap, but ‘Ms. Rachel,’ we started with it and still stay with it.” He went on to explain that Gia’s preference for “Ms. Rachel” has refined over time, as she now looks for new episodes, skits, and songs to keep her entertained.
In addition to his morning routine with his daughter, De Niro has been busy with his latest film project, “The Alto Knights.” Directed by Barry Levinson, the crime thriller sees De Niro taking on the challenging dual role of mob bosses Vito Genovese and Frank Costello. Despite opening to mixed reviews and modest box office earnings, the film has been praised for De Niro’s exceptional acting skills in portraying two distinct characters.
“The Alto Knights” delves into the world of Italian American mafia in the mid-twentieth century, focusing on Genovese’s attempted hit on Costello in 1957. The star-studded cast includes Debra Messing, Kathrine Narducci, and Cosmo Jarvis, with De Niro’s performance earning high praise from Levinson, who commended the actor for seamlessly embodying two different personas.
As De Niro continues to juggle his role as a devoted father and a versatile actor, fans eagerly anticipate his future projects and the possibility of seeing him in more captivating performances on screen.
