Sheryl Crow's sons aren't impressed by their mom's fame
Sheryl Crow might have sold millions of albums and won multiple Grammys, but her sons view her in a much more mundane way.
“They think I’m mom,” the singer, 61, told Page Six exclusively at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony Friday night.
“If I show up like this [all dressed up] anywhere, it’s like ugh,” she explained of her sons, Wyatt, 16, and Levi, 12, who made a rare red carpet appearance alongside her earlier in the evening. “They like me just being mom.”
The “All I Wanna Do” singer, who was being honored this evening, adopted the boys in 2007 and 2010, respectively, as a single parent.
Despite their disinterest in her level of fame, Crow did note that her boys were “excited about tonight” and understood all the hard work that went into receiving the honor.

“They’ve seen the work and even though years of me being on the road looked like fun to them, they realized now it was work and there was a whole life of work before them,” she explained.
Even so, Crow acknowledged that her kids are fans of her music… to a certain point.
If one of her many hits popped up on the radio, the nine-time Grammy winner shared that they wouldn’t change the station, “but they wouldn’t sing along.”
“Now if it was Zach Bryan, they’d sing along,” she added with a laugh.
Crow was inducted in the Performer Category alongside Kate Bush, Missy Elliott, Willie Nelson, Rage Against the Machine, the Spinners and the late George Michael.
Joining her onstage to kick off the show was Olivia Rodrigo as the two performed a rendition of Crow’s hit “If It Makes You Happy,” reports Yahoo.
Laura Dern inducted Crow, calling her pal “a badass goddess” and adding that initially, the music business didn’t know what to make of a Southern female guitar-playing singer-songwriter. Fortunately, they soon learned.
“She mapped out the chapters of our lives,” Dern said.
