Well, he’s certainly proud of them.
Sylvester Stallone is 71 years old – seventy-one. Before we go any further that’s taken us aback somewhat. Considering he’s still a working and very popular action hero, starring in the likes of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 and the forthcoming Escape Plan 2: Hades, it’s pretty impressive, all things considered.
He may remain a big screen draw after all these decades (Rocky came out 42 years ago), but on Monday he was drawing attention for very different reasons. The New Yorker chose to share a feature in the Daily Star about two of his three daughters, 21-year-old Sophia and 19-year-old Sistine. All good so far.
Except it was the nature of the story that left many followers feeling somewhat uncomfortable. That’s because the pair were joint recipients of the Star’s ‘Babe Of The Week’ title, and tone and language of the article was rather salacious. That didn’t stop Stallone proudly sharing a link with working:
‘Sylvester Stallone’s bombshell daughters set pulses racing with sizzling snaps’

Both Sophia and Sistine are models, and their dad is clearly very proud of them, but the wording and nature of the tweet left a number of followers feeling a bit grossed out. Some even compared it to Donald Trump’s unhealthy obsession with his own daughter and White House something, Ivanka…

You really tweeting this about your own daughters?

It's getting a little bit Trumpish here.

This reminds me of something I never want to be reminded of when thinking of Sly. pic.twitter.com/CPCSx27Voa
