John Mellencamp is hilariously confused about Teddi joining ‘Big Brother’

Reality TV

John Mellencamp wished his daughter Teddi Mellencamp a fun and successful journey on “Celebrity Big Brother” in a hilariously honest Instagram post Wednesday.

“A television show that Teddi is on premieres tonight,” John, 70, wrote. “I don’t know what she’s doing, but I’m proud of her and hope she achieves her goals.”

The befuddled “Hurts So Good” singer shared the supportive message alongside a photo of him with Teddi, 40, and her daughters, Slate, 9, and Dove, 1, in a kitchen. He also included a snap of him holding Teddi as a child.

John has five children from his three marriages: daughter Michelle, 51, with Priscilla Esterline, daughters Teddi and Justice, 37, with Victoria Granucci and sons Hud and Speck, both 27, with Elaine Irwin.

The rock star wasn’t the only one wishing the former “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” star good luck.

Teddi’s good friend and former co-star Kyle Richards posted a video getting the current “RHOBH” cast to cheer her on.

“Good luck, Teddi. We love you so much. You’re going to kill it! Go out there and kill it and win it,” Richards, 53, exclaimed while Lisa Rinna and Erika Jayne echoed similar notes of excitement.

“The Real Housewives of Orange County” alum Tamra Judge also posted an Instagram Story wishing her “Two Ts in a Pod” podcast co-host well-wishes.

“I’m so excited for my girl Teddi. I am having some girls over. We’re going to have a little premiere party for her. … We’re going to watch her just kick some ass tonight. Go Teddi!” Judge, 54, said in a video.

Teddi’s husband, Edwin Arroyave, meanwhile, penned a lengthy Instagram post declaring how proud he is of his wife.

“I cannot begin to describe how proud I am to stand beside such an amazing woman,” Arroyave, 44, wrote in part. “I would wish you luck, but I know you don’t need it! You inspire me every single day through your pure determination, mental toughness, gentle heart and your compassion for others.”

The reality star is competing against another “Real Housewives” alum, Cynthia Bailey, as well as Carson Kressley, Todrick Hall, Lamar Odom, Todd Bridges, Mirai Nagasu, Miesha Tate, Chris Kattan, Chris Kirkpatrick and Shanna Moakler.

“Celebrity Big Brother” airs multiple nights a week on CBS.
