Derby time: The teen was with her dad Larry Birkhead in Louisville at the Kentucky Derby
The teen was with her dad Larry Birkhead in Louisville at the Kentucky Derby.
Richie, who shot to international fame as the lead guitarist in Bon Jovi, was performing at this year’s Barnstable Brown Gala.
Sambora has a daughter who is much older than Dannielynn: 24-year-old Ava Locklear whose mother is Melrose Place star Heather Locklear.
Dannielynn was dressed in a statement outfit, the swank men’s suit Janet Jackson wore to the same gala in 2003, which her father bought at a charity auction.
In a touch of serendipity, Janet was also attending this year’s event, where a source exclusively tells DailyMail.com she saw Dannielynn and exclaimed: ‘That’s my outfit!’

Janet showered praise on Dannielynn, saying: ‘You look so amazing. It’s so cute!’ to which the teenager replied: ‘Thank you, I love it!’
Larry is a devoted Janet Jackson fan and, while working as a photojournalist, even snapped her while she was wearing the ensemble that Dannielynn wore this Friday.
‘I recognized the outfit having photographed Janet at the party in 2003 as a photographer and I thought it would be cool for Dannielynn to have,’ he said.

Larry told DailyMail.com that his daughter ‘thought it was very cool. She loves Janet’s music and she really thinks Janet has cool style.’
The event has a special significance for Larry and Dannielynn, as Anna Nicole first met Larry at the 2003 Barnstable Brown Gala.
Three days after Dannielynn was born her half-brother Daniel died of a drug overdose, and five months later so did Anna Nicole.
Anna Nicole, who listed her boyfriend Howard K. Stern as Dannielynn’s father on the birth certificate, left her entire estate to her daughter upon her death.
A string of men including Zsa Zsa Gabor’s ninth husband claimed to be Dannielynn’s real father until a DNA test confirmed that it was Larry.
