It happened 12 years ago. She was in her 20s. He was in his 70s. Quincy Jones took Ivanka Trump out for dinner. 。
That's just one of the wild details to surface in an epic Vulture interview with the music legend. Jones is best known as a music producer, though he's filled numerous roles over the years: actor, musician, composer, business executive, humanitarian. 。

He's famous AF, folks.

So when he was asked about the Trump era and how we got here during Vulture's sprawling interview, filled with name-drops and anecdotes galore, Jones blamed it on "uneducated rednecks" and that "crazy motherfucker" Trump before dropping the unexpected revelation about the president's daughter. 。
"I used to date Ivanka, you know."
。"Date" might be misstating things a bit, given what Jones had to say next. But a dinner definitely happened, at least in his telling.。Mashable Top StoriesStay connected with the hottest stories of the day and the latest entertainment news.Sign up for Mashable's Top Stories newsletter

So that happened.

Jones also thinks Paul Allen, the co-founder of Microsoft, is a good musician. Like, a 。

good one. How good, you ask?
He "sings and plays just like Hendrix." NBD.。 This revelation is too much for Vulture's David Marchese. His actual response to Jones at that point: "Stop it." But Jones insisted. 。Yeah, man. I went on a trip on his yacht, and he had David Crosby, Joe Walsh, Sean Lennon — all those crazy motherfuckers. Then on the last two days, Stevie Wonder came on with his band and made Paul come up and play with him — he’s good, man.

There's 。
so much more。amazing stuff in this interview. Jones knows who killed John F. Kennedy, and wishes he didn't. He has some choice words for Michael Jackson and Cyndi Lauper. He hated The Beatles the first time he heard them. 。
