Kyla Pratt brought her daughters, Lyric Kai Kirkpatrick,15, and Liyah Kirkpatrick,13, to the premiere of A Proud Family Wizmas on Saturday, November 14, at WACO at the Vision Theater in Los Angeles’ Leimert Park neighborhood.
For the occasion, the trio coordinated their looks in shades of red and burgundy, reminiscent of Penny Proud’s signature style. Pratt wore a sleeveless red dress, while Lyric opted for a burgundy knit dress with a matching cardigan and Liyah paired a jacket in the same shade with jeans.
Pratt, 40, has voiced Penny since The Proud Family debuted on Disney Channel in 2001. She returned for the Disney+ revival, The Proud Family: Louder and Prouder, in 2022. The fourth and final season arrived in July, ahead of the franchise’s 25th anniversary.
In A Proud Family Wizmas, Penny accidentally ruins Christmas and must make things right for the children of Emilyville. The holiday special marks the franchise’s first use of stop-motion animation and features six original songs.
In a July interview with Forbes, Pratt spoke about her daughters’ interest in the series.
“When The Proud Family Louder and Prouder came out, my youngest daughter was just so excited every Wednesday for a new episode,” she said.
Pratt, who shares Lyric and Liyah with her longtime partner, Danny “KP” Kirkpatrick, recalled introducing her daughters to her earlier work in a 2022 interview with HollywoodLife.
“I actually played the DVD for them of The Proud Family Movie when they were much younger just to see if they recognized my voice,” she said.
A Proud Family Wizmas is now streaming on Disney+ and features Tommy Davidson as Oscar Proud, Paula Jai Parker as Trudy Proud and JoMarie Payton as Suga Mama, with guest appearances by Gabrielle Union, Anderson .Paak and JB Smoove.
