Elle King’s Curious Family Background

If we told you that longtime comedian Rob Schneider (star of ‘Saturday Night Live’ and the movies ‘Grown Ups,’ ‘The Benchwarmers,’ ‘Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo’) was directly responsible for one of your favorite singers you would be shocked! He is though and she’s quite impressive. She recently jumped onto the scene with a new hit about ex-boyfriends. Any guesses?

Here’s the answer… The song “Ex’s & Oh’s” is sung by Elle King, who is none other than the daughter of comedian and actor Rob Schneider.

Tanner Elle Schneider was born on July 3rd, 1989 in Los Angeles. The family then moved to Ohio. As a teenager her stepfather gave her an all-girl punk band album, and after hearing the tracks from the gift came to the obvious conclusion that she was destined to be a musician!

Elle has had a most interesting life, having lived in Los Angles, southern Ohio, Philadelphia, and Denmark. If you ever see a picture of her you will see her father’s eyes, and she has more tattoos than a member of a biker gang.
