David Foster’s Power Rangers Party: A Star-Studded Bash for Young Rennie
In a delightful display of parenting prowess, David Foster, the esteemed 75-year-old music maestro, recently threw a “Power Rangers”-themed birthday bash for his son, Rennie, who just turned four. As Foster explained to People Magazine, the choice of theme was a no-brainer for the toddler, although they briefly considered opting for Darth Vader—a decision that was wisely discarded, given the potential fright factor for the little ones in attendance. “Darth Vader might be a little scary for the 3 and 4-year-olds,” Foster quipped, showcasing his keen understanding of preschooler sensitivities.
The party was a veritable fiesta, complete with a bouncy house, delectable Mexican cuisine, and churros—a sweet touch that surely delighted both kids and parents alike. “Everybody had a great time,” Foster reassured, further emphasizing the modern-day reality of birthday celebrations where adult guests must also be entertained. It seems that in today’s parenting landscape, it’s not just the kids who need to have fun; parents secretly hope for a decent time too, lest they be relegated to a corner, sipping lukewarm soda while the kids bounce around.
In stark contrast to last year’s more intimate celebration at Disneyland, where the family enjoyed a day off from their rigorous touring schedule, this year’s event was a full-fledged affair. Foster and his wife, Katharine McPhee Foster, 40, are adept at balancing family life with their careers—Katharine herself is no stranger to the limelight, having gained fame as a singer and actress. Their son, who has shown a penchant for puzzles over the drums he once dabbled in, is also getting a taste of showbiz, as he’s set to join his parents on the road for Foster’s upcoming Broadway musical, “Boop! The Musical,” which is set to open on April 5.
The family dynamic is further enriched by Foster’s five adult children from previous relationships, who are all eager to support him at the musical’s premiere, emphasizing the importance of family in Foster’s life. As the music legend himself confirms, “We just had a family dinner, and without me prompting, they’re like, ‘Yeah, we all want to be there on April 5.’” Clearly, family is Foster’s greatest hit, and while the Power Rangers may be a passing obsession, the love for family remains a timeless theme.
