The Lion King (2019) remains the ninth highest-grossing film of all time – in case anyone was wondering.
Word on the street – aka X – is that Barry Jenkins wanted to date Blue Ivy after her spellbinding reading of Hair Love.
However, it doesn’t hurt that the 12-year-old is worth 720 million dollars
