Julianne Moore: Red Delicious On Redbook

Sassy Smith — Wed, 28 Jan 2009 15:06:00 GMT

The always beautiful actress Julianne Moore, 48, graces the cover of Redbook's February issue, and she talks about family, being a working mom and her charity involvement with Save the Children.

One more pic after the jump!

Here are a few highlights from the interview:

How she balances work and motherhood:

"I try to work in the summer, or shoot in New York City. I'll try to come back every weekend, or schedule around school breaks. No one likes it, but you're trying to make a living. People say, 'Then don't do it,' but I do have a career. Every woman I know strives for flexibility, and I fortunately have a tremendous amount of it."

Who's more strict - Julianne or husband writer-director Bart Freundlich?

"We both are. But I think moms and dads get angrier at different things. When I talk to other mothers, they say that sometimes dads get mad at things that kids can't help. If a kid is having a tantrum, dads will be, 'Stop that right now.' Moms will be like, 'He's out of control. You can't discipline; you have to find a way to contain it.' Whereas moms get angry if someone breaks a rule. The rule is: Don't wipe dirty hands on the wall, and dads will say, 'What's the big deal?'"

How has becoming a mother changed her?

"You do learn a tremendous amount of patience. Children's pace is glacial, and you can't change that. Literally, just walking down the street with them, I thought I was going to tear my hair out, but that's where they are. It's not difficult to take care of a child; it's difficult to do anything else while taking care of a child. Trying to clean up the kitchen after you've had a baby is a nightmare. You have to wait for the baby to be asleep, you're exhausted, you don't want to clean up the kitchen now. My kids still don't like me to read the newspaper in the morning. I'll be making their breakfast, and I'll have The New York Times there and want to read it, and they'll be like, 'Mommy, Mommy, Mommy.'"

About her daughter Liv, 6:

"She's incredible, so smart. She's in first grade. I have these pictures of her at kindergarten, I'm sitting on a chair and she's sitting on my lap and I'm talking in her ear and she looks so worried. Kindergarten is the hardest for me — that's the year I cry. I walk out of that classroom and I burst into tears. They're entering the school world."

On 11-year-old son Caleb's braces & his birthday trip to Paris:

"My son had to go to the orthodontist to have his braces off yesterday. We celebrated by chewing gum." And about his birthday:

"Two months ago, apropos of nothing, my son said, 'Mommy, for our birthdays, instead of a party, let's go to Paris, just the two of us.' This is probably the last time in his life Cal will want to go somewhere alone with his mother. I was flattered and thrilled."

On her charity work with Save the Children:

"A friend of mine is their artist-ambassador person. She gets people involved. I didn't realize Save the Children had a U.S. program; it reaches communities through the public school system with after-school programs in nutrition, exercise, literacy. We moved a lot when I was little because my dad was in the military, and I went to one public school after another. I lived in Lincoln, Nebraska; Fayetteville, South Carolina; Juneau, Alaska; Falls Church, Virginia. In Juneau — I've told this story many times; it was a formative experience for me — there was a girl in my class. She looked different, very small for her age, very thin, eyes very wide; there was something wrong but no one knew what. I now realize she had fetal alcohol syndrome. It makes me want to cry. I look at our public school system and think there's so much we can do to pick up the slack. So now I'm Save the Children's U.S. ambassador."

Noelle Beck Learns Son Was Afraid of Santa

Karl Erikson — Sat, 20 Dec 2008 15:34:00 GMT

CHRISTMAS SPOILER ALERT!

Hey, you can never be too careful. I'm just saying. If your kids are of reading age and they're on your lap, send them away for a minute.

There. It should be safe now. You're welcome.

Noelle Beck, who plays Lily Snyder on "As the World Turns," says she was surprised more than her son was when she revealed the "truth" about Santa Claus. Turns out Brock was afraid of Santa Claus all the while.

"My son was the cutest thing when I told him that my husband and I were Santa Claus," says Noelle. "He burst into tears and he said, 'You mean I've been afraid of Santa all this time and it was just you?!'"

Brock "had been petrified his whole life that Santa was going to come into that fireplace. Poor kid, he never told us he was afraid. I guess it just haunted him."

Noelle, 40, and her husband, Eric, are also parents to Forrest, 17, and Spencer, 16.

Silly Brock. You don't need to be scared of Santa coming down the chimney. Be scared of the ghoul living under your bed that gnoshes on children's skulls.

Julianne Moore - Forty Seven & Hot

Sassy Smith — Tue, 12 Aug 2008 11:06:00 GMT

Actress Julianne Moore is 47 - she'll turn 48 in just 4 months - and um, she's still hot! The married mom of two, recently did photos for Wonderland Magazine and although she's clearly beautiful, her husband thinks she's weird....why?

More hotness after the jump!

Julianne's husband, Bart Freundlich thinks she's odd because of the dark roles she often chooses.

"He thinks I'm weird. There was a script I read recently where I was like, 'Ooh this horrible thing happens and it's really good because they're all dead!' He's like, 'What is the matter with you?'"

Moore plays 1920s socialite, Barbara Baekeland in her latest movie called Savage Grace, and gets pretty raunchy with her on-screen son.

Julianne says, "People ask all the time if sex scenes and nudity are hard. What's hard? Not the lines or the physicality but the emotion."

Julianne Moore Hot Video

Hot, redheaded mom and actress Julianne Moore was recently on David Letterman and somehow the subject of oral sex came up. I'm not sure who started it, but what happened next could prove to be very embarrassing or very funny - or both.

Video after the jump!

Julianne was telling David that she's already had the sex talk with her son Caleb, and explained that he could ask her any question pertaining to sex or to any word. Caleb said to his mom, "Really Mommy, any word?" Julianne thought, "Don't let it be fellatio."

Of course David Letterman, being David Letterman, could not let that one pass by. He asks, Well, what does that mean?" Moore, being quick on the wit, answers, "Ask your mother!"

Ha. Enjoy the video!
