Kenny Rogers' Twin Boys Just Turned 21

Kenny Rogers' twin boys have grown into big, burly men.

The late country legend's sons Justin and Jordan just turned 21 years old this week, and they're barely recognizable alongside pictures of them as innocent 6-year-olds.

Rogers' team shared a picture of the two boys preparing to get down on a birthday cake. Their 21st birthday was Sunday (July 6), and mom was there to celebrate.

Rogers had five kids total, ranging in age from 21 to 66.
He died on March 20, 2020.
Justin and Jordan often traveled with their father, including on his farewell tour. They graduated high school in 2023.

Kenny Rogers and his fifth wife Wanda didn't plan on having children when they married in 1997, but she wanted to try for one and he agreed. They ended up with twins, which Rogers says he was thrilled to hear.

"Boy, has it ever changed my life," Rogers told People in 2006. "They say that twins at my age will either make you or break you. Right now I’m leaning towards break. I would kill for the energy they’ve got."

Photos of them as four-year-olds hanging with dad's famous friends can be found, including the above shot with Dolly Parton, and another with Wendy Williams. Both came from a 50-year anniversary concert in 2010.

As social media grew popular, the boys began to appear more frequently on their father's profile. That's where fans learned they'd celebrated turning 21.

"It's virtually impossible to believe, but Kenny & Wanda's wonderful young men, Justin & Jordan, celebrated the Big 21 yesterday!" the caption reads. "Please join us in wishing them an incredible year and long, healthy, prosperous lives for decades to come!"

The two brothers live a mostly private life. There's not much known about either, although one said he was bullied in school and his dad helped him work through it.

No one has ever shared if they have college or career plans, but both seem to appreciate pop culture history, perhaps ironically.

In the new photo, the son on the left is wearing a Violent Gentleman Hockey Club hat and a Mighty Ducks of Anaheim T-shirt. The other is sporting a shirt that says "Never forget" with aging data storage devices standing in front of a sunset, like skyscrapers.

Each young man got his own chocolate cake with an Oreo cookie the size of a fist in the middle of it.

PICTURES: See Inside Kenny Rogers' Staggering California Estate

Kenny Rogers developed a taste for fine living early in his success. His ultra-lavish mansion in Bel Air, Calif., an estate called Lionsgate, was opulent even by celebrity standards. The 11-bedroom, 17-bathroom home totals 23,988 square feet of space, and it sits on 1.63 acres of some of the most expensive real estate in California.

The lavish interior includes a master suite that encompasses more than 3,000 square feet, three separate living rooms, seven fireplaces, a billiards room, a formal study, a private 12-seat theater with leather seats, a climate-controlled wine room that opens onto a saltwater pool, three steam showers and a large dry sauna. The property also features an outdoor glass elevator that leads to a large ballroom party space with an attached guest suite and a professional-sized gym.

The exterior of the house is just as lavish, including an outdoor living area with heated floors and a fully equipped bar, a tennis court with stadium lighting and a viewing area, a hot tub and extensive landscaping. Realtor.com calls Lionsgate the "most prestigious luxury estate" in Bel Air, boasting "possibly the best views in Los Angeles."

According to Business Insider, Rogers purchased the estate in the 1970s, and he added the lions to the gate and christened the home Lionsgate. He sold it in 1983 for $5.8 million, according to Variety, and the property most recently sold in 2015 for a staggering $46.25 million.

26 Most Important Artists of the Last 25 Years

This list of the 25 most important artists of the last 25 years relies on men, women, duos and groups that either changed the genre in a tangible way, or were undeniably influential.
