Let’s face it—Adam Levine has conquered the world of music, selling out stadiums and venues everywhere. But, as it turns out, there’s one audience member who isn’t exactly bowing down to his legendary talent. On October 7, during a visit to The Ellen DeGeneres Show, the frontman of Maroon 5 revealed that his 3-year-old daughter, Dusty Rose, might just be his toughest critic yet. Imagine that—selling out arenas but getting shut down at home.

I wish I was exaggerating, but I’m not.” It’s a funny, relatable moment for any parent—your kid just doesn’t get why you're so famous.
