In the world of celebrity family pranks, Mario Lopez just found himself on the receiving end of a mischievous trick courtesy of his daughter, Gia. The “Access Hollywood” host and former “Saved by the Bell” star recently took to Instagram to share a moment of father-daughter high jinks that left him with a less-than-pleasant taste in his mouth—literally.
In a video post shared on his official Instagram account, Lopez revealed that his daughter, Gia, apparently pulled a soap-related prank on him. The post, captioned “I think Gia had a little too much fun with this one… Should I get her back? #LopezFam #SoapStillTastesBad,” shows what appears to be the aftermath of a practical joke involving soap.
The Instagram post humorously captures Lopez’s reaction to whatever soapy surprise his daughter orchestrated, with the hashtag #SoapStillTastesBad making it clear that the prank likely involved Lopez unknowingly tasting soap. The entertainment personality is now playfully contemplating revenge, asking his followers if he should “get her back.”
This lighthearted moment is just one of many family-focused posts that Lopez regularly shares with his followers. The father of three frequently showcases his close-knit family on social media.
Just recently, Lopez posted several family moments celebrating Easter Sunday. In a post captioned “Celebrating Easter Sunday with the familia… #LopezFam #EasterSunday #HeIsRisen,” Lopez shared images of his family enjoying the holiday together. Another Easter post simply stated “Happy Easter! #HeIsRisen #ResurrectionSunday #LopezFam,” highlighting the importance of family traditions in the Lopez household.
This isn’t the first time Lopez has shared playful moments with his daughter Gia. In another recent post captioned, “This is what arguing with myself in the mirror is like in real life… #LopezFam #Gigi #Mija,” Lopez showcased his dynamic with his daughter.
The soap prank appears to be an escalation in their playful relationship, with Lopez now contemplating how to return the favor in what could become an entertaining prank war between father and daughter.
Mario Lopez has maintained a steady presence in entertainment since his breakout role as A.C. Slater on “Saved by the Bell” in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Beyond acting, he’s established himself as a television host, currently serving as the host of “Access Hollywood.”
Despite his busy career, Lopez consistently emphasizes the importance of family values. He maintains an active social media presence that balances his professional endeavors with glimpses into his family life. When he’s not sharing family moments, he posts about his other passions, including fitness and his cultural heritage.
The soap prank incident adds another layer to the Lopez family dynamic that fans have come to appreciate—one that shows celebrities face the same parental joys and challenges as everyone else, including occasionally falling victim to their children’s pranks.
As followers await to see if and how Lopez will retaliate against Gia’s soap prank, one thing is certain: family fun remains at the center of the Lopez household.
