La La Anthony calls herself son's No. 1 fan but embarrasses him on his senior night

La La Anthony is a proud mom and sometimes it can backfire for her son Kiyan Anthony. The way La La has devoted her life to raising her son, there is hardly any doubt that she is his biggest fan and supporter.

Given the love of mothers, it is fairly reasonable to say that sometimes they can go overboard to make it special for their children. Once in a while, it can also come at a cost, as it did for Kiyan Anthony.

On his high school senior night, Kiyan and the Long Island Lutheran faced the IMG Academy on Saturday, Feb. 15. After the game, the mother of the Syracuse commit made sure she made the day special for Kiyan, but he didn't seem too impressed.

In the caption of the picture that La La posted featuring Kiyan and ex-husband, the Hollywood actress revealed that she had embarrassed her son by putting balloons in the gym.

"Forever ur #1 fan...MOM, I embarrassed @kiyananthony with all these balloons in the gym for his senior night. Love you so much!" La La wrote in the caption.

Last year, in November, Kiyan Anthony announced that he had committed to his father's alma mater Syracuse University for his next step in basketball. According to ESPN, the son of the former basketball star is among the top 40 recruits in the Class of 2025.
