Sean Lennon is accustomed to people recognizing him because of his famous parents, but one incident really caught him off-guard.

"When I was 15, a cabdriver asked me if I was Paul McCartney's daughter," the 31-year-old singer told AP Radio. "That really blew my mind."

Lennon said he usually finds himself unfazed by all the attention he gets as the son of Yoko Ono and former Beatle John Lennon, who was killed in New York City in 1980.

"I don't have any perspective on a life without people freaking out about my parents, so I don't know what it would be like for that not to happen," he said.

Lennon is on tour in support of his latest album, "Friendly Fire."
