Twelve years ago, Ivanka Trump asked a friend about setting up a date with Quincy Jones. Or so Jones claimed in a recent interview with Vulture’s David Marchese.

According to Jones, Trump asked Tommy Hilfiger set the date up (Hilfiger was working with Jones’ daughter Kidada at the time).

“I said, ‘No problem. She’s a fine motherf**ker,’” Jones recalled. “She had the most beautiful legs I ever saw in my life. Wrong father, though.”

Trump supposedly dated other celebrities before becoming engaged to Jared Kushner, including the cyclist Lance Armstrong.
