Kevin Bacon and Daughter Sosie Perform Duet of Miley Cyrus and Beyoncé’s ‘II Most Wanted’
Kevin and Sosie Bacon are also members of the “BeyHive.”
The Footloose star and his daughter shared a collaborative Instagram Reel of them singing along to Beyoncé and Miley Cyrus’ new duet “II Most Wanted” from Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter — but with revised lyrics to reflect their father-daughter relationship.
The 65-year-old actor strummed on his guitar while his daughter sat closer to the camera. The duo serenaded followers with the first verse and chorus.
Kevin started the song and sang, “I’m jumping the gun, but you’re still young/ But I might not be.” The Smile actress, 32, concluded the verse: “And I know who I am when I see your face/ You look like an old me.”
The pair harmonized to the song’s original lyrics: “Came out of nowhere, didn’t give
no warnin’/ Pedal so heavy like the two most wanted/ And I don’t know what you’re doin’ tonight/ But I, I’ll be your shotgun rider/ ‘Til the day I die.”
But then sang a revised lyric: “Saving your car seat flyin’/ Down the 405.”
As the video concluded, the duo alternated the remaining lyrics, with Kevin starting with “You’re in my backseat, baby,” and Sosie adding, “And I’m drivin’ you crazy.”
Before the pair ended the song, Kevin sang one last line alone, “Exactly what I like.” Then the two smiled as they sang, “I’ll be your shotgun rider/ ‘Til the day I, ’til the day I die.”
“A little duet of II Most Wanted, but had to make a few lyric changes to keep it father daughter friendly. 😎. #CowboyCarter,” read the video’s caption.

A few users commented on Kevin and Sosie’s bond in the Instagram comments. “Love this and I adore the way you look at her when she doesn’t even know. Proud dad shows through in every second,” wrote one user.
Kevin and wife Kyra Sedgwick welcomed Sosie on March 15, 1992, and son Travis Bacon on June 23, 1989.
Before the duo’s “II Most Wanted” rendition, Sosie celebrated her 32nd birthday, and both of her parents paid tribute to their daughter.
The Leave the World Behind actor shared a sweet Instagram post that included a clip of himself dancing that was stitched next to a clip of Sosie dancing in another. The two were showing off their best dance moves to PREP’s 2022 cover of Harry Styles’ “As It Was.”
