The perks of a famous Granny! Whoopi Goldberg and granddaughter Jerzey sit front row at New York Fashion Week

She might not be the most obvious fashion fan.
But Whoopi Goldberg is obviously happy to try something new to make her granddaughter Jerzey Dean happy.
And the teen certainly seemed delighted as she sat front row with her grandmother at the Stella Nolasco fashion show during New York Fashion Week on Thursday.
The pair were there to watch the Spring offerings of Puerto Rico's most avant garde designer, whose clothing line sells in upmarket department store Neiman Marcus.

Check it out: The 54-year-old obviously had fun pointing out things to her 19-year-old companion

Whoppi, 54, looked comfortable in a crisp white shirt, blue jeans and snazzy yellow lace-up shoes with a pattern influenced by American Indian-influenced designs in red and blue.
She slung a large designer handbag over her shoulder and carried a khaki jacket.
Jerzey was much more fashion-forward in a black romper suit with a mesh panel over the shoulders and short sleeves.

The 19-year-old, who puled her brown hair up into a pony tail, wore dizzyingly high black strappy platform sandals and towered over her tiny grandma.
She is the daughter of  Whoopi's only child, Alexandria, 41, who is also an actress and producer.  
The couple chatted happily and Whoopi pointed out things to Jerzey as they watched the show.
The event gave Whoopi a morning's respite from problems at morning talk show The View, where she is reportedly at loggerheads with returning co-host Rosie O'Donnell.
RadarOnline reports that the veteran hosts are scrapping over every detail of their daily working life, including who will get the set’s best office.
'They are fighting over everything, like offices, and even assistants,' a show insider told the website.
However, watching the Nolasco show might have been a painful reminder of the passing of her good friend, Fashion Police star and comedienne Joan Rivers, who died on Thursday at 81.
Whoopi took to Twitter to express her sadness, saying: 'My friend Joan Rivers has passed away once again to quote Billy Crystal... There are no words. Bon Voyage Join
